G37 OEM wheel & Tires (Specifications) *For Reference*
I have the same question, but couldn't find an answer. Any ideas? I have the G37x, with 18". I currently use these for my winter tires and are planning to get 19" and summer tires now, and want to make sure I get the size right.
225/45 19" and 245/40 19" don't have the same circumference. Is that not creating problems with four wheel drive?
Thanks!

If you get those wheels and want a better size combo you can run 225/45/19F and 255/40/19 Rear for a .22% variance or 245/40/19F &
275/35/19 Rear for a -.52% variance.

The difference in diameter front to back is less than 1% (it's -.96%) so there won't be issues w/ the AWD. Issues have been reported when there's more than 1% diameter difference at speeds over 80mph.

My question is simple and specific, and I am hoping that it will help others here as well.
I have a 2008 coupe with the 19's
I want to keep my rims.
I want to use spacers to have my wheels more flush with the fenders.
I want a tire that will last for about 15k to 20k miles of spirited driving.
I will most likely not "lower" my until necessary.
Question(s):
What size spacers do I need (and any brand recommendations?
what is the best size to go with for fronts/rears (Tires) and are there a "preferred" tire for mostly warm weather (ranging from 40 to 95 annually)
Thanks in advance.

As far as spacers, I'd just wait until you get the tires and then decide how much you need. Here's a good clip on spacer sizing
I'll be glad to post the information for other OEM wheels in the first post if you have it accurate and complete. PM it to me. Or post it here and I'll update the first post to add it.

I believe you mean the rear tires on the front wheels and the wider tires on the rear wheels. Yes you can. It won't make the ride any smoother though. In fact, you'd be changing to a shorter and stiffer side walled tire on both front and rear which will make the ride a little stiffer.

20" wheels will give a noticeably harsher ride and will require shorter (35/30) even stiffer sidewalks than 19" wheels. Throw ride comfort out of the window if you go up in wheel size, at lease compared to the OEM wheels and tires.
Any idea the weights on these wheels?
Want to change oem goodyear rsa to Michelin Pilot Plus.
Goodyear RSA's awful for any aggressive driving. Stock size 225/55/17. Would like to upsize to 245/50/17.
Revolution per mile numbers are close but I am concerned about the possibility of rubbing. Any advice would be appreciated.

In any case, my stock Goodyears have dry-rot on them, and so consequently I need new tires. I'm in Colorado where we get a lot of snow, so it would need to be an all-season tire but one that handles well, too....any recommendations on a performance all-season tire? The Infiniti dealer kept recommending some brands I haven't heard of too much like Kumho and Continental. I'm assuming Michelins are the best brand for performance all-season, like for instance the Pilot Sport A/S 3?
