Default 17" G35 Wheels On Non Sport Z For Winter ?

Found a set of G35 wheels/winter tires online and was wondering if they would even come close to fitting? The specs are - ( 17 X 7.5 - Et 30mm, 17 x 8 Et 30mm) with 225/50 R17 and 235/50 R17.

Waste of time or something to look into?

Tony,
I'm a total noob when it comes to rims or tires but is your car sports or non sports version? This info will help others answering your question.

they should fit fine, but the rears will tuck in quite a bit. (I'm running 350Z Rays wheels for the track)

I would run a 25mm rear spacer with them and they will look normal on the car. I would think they will clear your calipers no problem.

actually, you might need a spacer on the front too, I forgot that I am running 4 rear wheels.

Why don't you get the rims AK got?
They offer a rim+tire package for the winter @ a great price!
