so what's the widest one can go on stock 18's on the back without rubbing. Car car .9" drop in the back. I was thinking 265/40/18. Factory size is 245/45/18 for rears.
help ASAP....G35 coupe, how wide for rears?

damn this place is dead.
i wouldnt go any bigger than 265. otherwise youre gonna get some sidewalling and ALOT more squirm.
The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later.
not going bigger than 265...just not sure if 40 series would be too tall. I have seen 285/35/19 on a stock g35 (no drop) only rubbed while driving hard. I think they should fit without any rubbing issues. Would hate to get them then rub lol.Originally Posted by jesse4846
you got a g35?

turbo? vr6 dsg?
twin turbo biatch
I had 285/30/20's on the rear of my G on a 10" wheel with stock springs. Those tires weren't even close to rubbing. I never went wider that 245 on the stock 18's but those tires are pretty wide for that wheel. I wish I could help you out more.
i am 2 steps ahead lol. Already posted there...not much help.
hey 265 should not rub, I had 275 on it with no problem but i'm not sure cuz it wasn't dropped. But why are you going 265?? I have 10.5 inch rims in the back and i'm running 285. I think the stock 18's are only 8 inches or so. By the way I have the white G one from monroe lol
man i been wondering if you were on here or not. stock rears are 8.5", but yea 265 might be too much of a tire. Two tires need to get replaced so gonna put 245's up front and bit wider in the back. I think gonna go with 255's then....265 might give too much of a mushy feeling. Did u have the 275's on stock or ur 19'S?
275/30/19 were on my volk 19's. 275 really was not wide enough gave it the stretched look. Upgraded to 285/35/19 b/c bad inside wear on the 275. Both 295 and 285 on mine rubbed my fenders on stock springs. I got 245 in the front on 9.5 in. not wide enough either and has the stretched look but can't afford tires lol. I just dropped it last weekend with tein s-techs so I rolled my own fenders in the rear and now there's no scrubbing at all lol. When did you get a G?
man ur G looks sick, those wheels alone set it off really nicely. Can't wait to see it with the drop, bring it to the Sonic meet this week. I think i am gonna stick with 255 since the wheels are only 8.5" wide. I got a fully built TT G, should be out of the shop today....it got lil more good fast goodies and a new tune. It will be at the meet.
when the **** did you get this? i must say my man. props to you.
now that I think about it, I have a buddy that had a G with 20x10 rears w/285/30/20s lowered w/an Eibach pro kit and he never mentioned any rubbing issues. I never asked about rubbing issues though...He used to be on here, but he moved....his screen name was "johnny chimpo" I think
I have 19x9.5/10.5 Volk wheels with +17/18 offsets. I have 275/30/19's in rear right now dropped on Tanabe GF210's with no rubbing unless in hard cornering. I will eventually get them rolled just for peace of mind. I use a 255 tire up front.
On another note. . . you have a built motor TT and will only have a 8.5" tire? Good luck with traction lol. Pics of the car? Who did the work?
