Will the G35 18" Wheels fit the Touring FD with the stock suspension?? Thanks in advance for the help.

It might help if you posted the size and offsets of the G35 wheels. I can tell you right now you will have to ditch the stock G35 tires -- way too tall.

 

I do not know the wheel width or the off-set, I was hoping that some here knew. And BTW I am referring to the stock G35 18" Wheels. If any one knows of a site that has the information, I will look it up for myself. Thanks.

 

Those wheels IIRC, have an offset of +30 or +33. That said, they won't work on an FD (stock wheel offset is +50).

 

According to www.wheelspecs.com , the Infiniti wheels are 18x8 (not really a good size anyhow - kinda skinny)... and have a +30 offset.

_Technically_ they actually would probably fit. The +30 offset would set the outside face of the wheel at about the same spot as some commonly-recommended sizes like 17x9 +45 offset or 17x9 +40 offset.

The offset is definitely not what you'd want though for best performance. Overall I would NOT try this... even though I think they would "fit".

 

Skinny, just like the 16x8 stock wheels, eh?

Haha, yeah, as long as you drive in a straight line and don't ever turn the steering wheel.

For an 8" wide wheel up front, IMO, I'd go w/ nothing less than a +35.

 

IMO 18x8 look "skinnier" than 16x8 stockers even though they're the same width. I don't like the wagon wheel look hehehe.

 

Thanks guys for the info.

As said - the stock G35 wheels have too low an offset to fit an FD correctly.. I think they are in the high 20's

 

You can use the sedan G wheels as they are a higher offset. But the true problem lies in the centerbore where the Nissan stuff is approx 66mm and FD is 67.1. So you'll need to bore them just a tad.
