Rim and tire sizes?
Hi everyone...my wife has expressed interest in getting new rims and tires for her G37. I wanted to know if there was a rim/ tire size that would allow rotation of front to back...or will I always have to stay with narrower in front?
What is the popular tire/rims these days? If I were to change the rims to 20's (instead of 19's) are the better options? I don't want to spend a fortune...but want some rims and tires that look and perform well.
I realize that this question has been asked a billion times and I appologize for asking it again. I also know rims are personal taste...I just have no clue which ones will fit under the wheel wells right and sizes etc. I don't think I can afford Vossen rims are there any others some of you are using? Thanks everyone!

Yes you can go with a non staggered set up...If you have Sport Large Brakes play a factor...I'm sure one of the guys here have done that? But really the Staggered look on the Rear! Now thats a G!
Non sport are usually the same all around...Sport IPL are staggered.
The issue of going from 19's to 20's are a cost factor...meaning 19's are more expensive on tires than 20's. 20's are more common and odd sizes 19-21-etc are $$$. 19's are doing better price wise and still its all on your taste and pocket book..
Yet another question is are you planning to lower her car?
Thats another factor...
Wheel spacers etc will be the last thing if need be...but really just look around.
Happy Modding!
