Rims and Tires recommendation for G37xs sedan

Hi Guys.

I recently bought nice G37xs in Canada and im importing it to central Europe for my self.
Car sits on stock rims and tires and I dont want to race around in those.

I have no idea what rims should I go for, size wise.

What sizes rims/tires you guys are recommending?

Im not yet sure if I want to lower the car but I will drive it very hard very often.

Well if you're trying to get something nice but not too crazy i was looking at getting 19 x 8.5 +35. That should give you an almost flush fitment. But I know some European countries parts are expensive so make sure you know how much tires are gonna cost before you commit to a specific wheel size

Scan trhough the Multimedia forum, there are thousands of photos of Gs with aftermarket wheels.

As for size, the stickied OE wheel thread in this forum will give you the factory wheel sizes.

Sigh. You must have 18" or larger diameter. Not all will fit if they have a shallow face.

yes they can fit but it also depends on the face of the wheel if it’s super concave they might not clear the calipers. There’s a template to print so you can see how much space u need
