Best first post ever.


g35/350z wheels are known for their low offsets, my concern wouldnt be clearing the calipers but not rubbing and hitting the inside of the rear fenders.

I had to redo my screen name, got deployed and forgot everything lol... So hopefully it's fits just nice... Thanks for the somewhat assurance, and thanks for another warm welcome...Why would it just be the rear fender what about the front lol... Help a newb out, just coming from someone who owns a Subaru...

These are the specs. offsets are a bit aggressive for the F, but they are only 8.5 in wide. You would be losing .5 of an in in the back.

Front
Size: 19x8.0
Offset: +30mm
Weight: 19 lbs

Rear
Size: 19x8.5
Offset: +33mm
Weight: 21 lbs

The offsets would actually set the G35 wheels pretty flush with the fenders. I don't know if I want to step down to a 8.5" rear though; the stock 9" is already skinny enough.

These wouldn't be the stock wheels for a G37 I presume?

Just bought a set of G35 rims to use as snow rims, but haven't installed them yet. I know they're right at the limit of clearance, at least according to this:

Anybody actually have OEM G35/37 rims on a F right now? Any rubbing?

No, they're are not stock rims, but the bolt pattern is the same.

Search this has been discussed tons of times. Not a fan of putting NIssan wheels on a Lexus.

Me either, but then again I don't think finding cheap rims for snows is as big a concern in Atlanta
