n15m0 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 The sedans as we know are not as lucky as the coupe to be able to fit low offset wheels similar to the 350z. A forum member in the US has given me hope! http://g35driver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219452 He was able to fit 19x9 +26 and 19x10 +26 with only a 1" drop and lipping the inner guards. So over the weekend I chucked my SSRs on the rear of my sedan to see for myself. The wheel was 18x9.5 +35 These were on my 34 previously fitted with 265/35/18 tyres. Please ignore the huge gap between guards and tyres because the profile is not suited to the V35. I reckon with a 245/45 or 40 and guard lipping I should be able to pull it off! Attached is the sedan offset chart for those who haven't seen it. Based on the above G35 driver offsets, looks like there is a little bit more room to play with once the car is lowered. I have made an adjustment to the supposedly extra room based on the above 19x9 +26 and 19x10 +26 . If anyone has successfully squeezed an aggresive offset wheel under the sedan guards please post specs and pics. Cheers.

n15m0 Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Looks good...is that on stock suspension still? Keep the sedan pics coming! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/218748-v35-sedan-offsets/#findComment-3864232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS4nMore Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Yep, stock suspension. It could probably do with a 0.5-0.75 inch drop. I dont want to go too low, as this ia a daily driver...

Unique Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Looks great. You must be pretty happy with how it all looks now. Hopefully nicer to drive too. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/218748-v35-sedan-offsets/#findComment-3871766 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WazR32GTSt Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 that looks amazing on the 350z anniversary wheels! now the only problem is that you can now see more of the brake setup and you need some nice slotted rotors to show off also!

Very happy at the moment with the improved handling and looks! that looks amazing on the 350z anniversary wheels!now the only problem is that you can now see more of the brake setup and you need some nice slotted rotors to show off also! Yes, the brakes aren't the best looking things on the car, so while the wheels were off, I spray painted the calipers gloss black, so they wouldn't stick out like dogs balls.
