Today I got my winter wheels from tirerack, 18" sport edition A7s that fit very very close to the caliper, but they fit. You will see in the pics below how close it is, my question is that having that much clearance, is it bad or it'll be fine? I should say though, they look decent for winter wheels. I have custom center overlays on the way too..

 

not bad, the clearance seems good for 18 inchers


the rims looks like the G35 coupes ones

 

yikes the wheel gap !

 

its lifted.

so, thats how an 18' wheel looks like. you shouldnt have any problems with the clearance. now paint them like pink or something.

 

lol i think the new england salt and sand on the roads will do the painting role..yes the car was on jacks, ill take pics tomorrow..its a very clean set up for the winter

 

wheels are very popular for the G community..look jsut like stocker 18's

 

Plenty of clearance there. No sweat

 

Nice job for winters.

 

heres what it looks like..cloudy day but all in all, im happy with this winter setup..although I need to figure out the TPMS thing..I got these wheels with the TPMS from tire rack but I dont understand how to reset the car system to acknowledge these tires..any tips?

 

lookes pretty good for winter beaters!

 

I believe the dealer needs to reset the TPMS for you.
