interesting...those are real conservative specs for the coupe. Even the sedan can go more agressive. thanks for the info.

so, for the wheels newbies (like me) what does this mean to me if I want to put 20s on it?

Looking at the car Chico the offsets seem more aggressive than the previous generation however. Maybe this is because of the track width increasing.

Not a whole lot. Just make sure you get the right offsets with your sizes.

I want weight specs. I'm gonna go ahead and guess they're at least a few lbs. heavier than the forged Rays on the 05s-07s seeing as these new 19s are cast.

Is the high offset going to limit how much of a dish can be had on the wheels?

^ High offsets (famous on Hondas) may limit the 'deep dish' potential on the current G. The 14" rotors in the sport model also may limit how much deep dish can be attained. We'll see what JDM manufacturers (ie Rays Engineering, Work, etc) will come out with to fit on the "Skyline" to see how far they can go. Maybe the vendors that advertise on this board can help us ... ????

When you look at the coupe in person, the stock 19's are pretty tucked. I would guess the same aftermarket wheels that could be used in the previous gen could be used on the G37. At least in the rear - the fronts would need a high-type wheel to clear the breaks.

Atleast they wen't with 9.0 in the rear. IMO, my stock 19's for my 06 Coupe would be a better looking wheel if it were 8.5 front, 9.5 rear.

I'm keeping a close eye on this thread... I know the front, the spokes are like RIGHT there just barely over the caliper... with a wider wheel, you could probably obtain some lip, but the rear, I think you can get a decent sized lip w/o having the rims/tires patruding outside the fender

Interesting thread because the only thing I really don't like about the G37 Sport is the wheels. I'd like to eventually (the car isn't even here yet! Man I hope the wife doesn't read this. ) get a set of wheels that look like the 18" Infiniti wheels on the '07 Coupe. I think those are beautiful.

I literally haven't purchased wheels for a car in 30 years - last time was for a 1977 Datsun (not Nissan) B210! Insert wise cracks and humiliating comments here.

Are there wheels that are direct bolt-ons with identical offset and lug patterns as the factory wheels?

soo...
does this mean my 19" racinghart j8's won't fit my new coupe??
I still have them from my 03 and was planning on putting them on the new ride.
Theyre 19x10 in the rear and 19x8.5 in the front I believe.
