19" Oem Wheels

[MaXiMuS007]

I'm looking at picking up some 19" OEM wheels to replace my stock 18"s... I'm guessing they are a straight replacement but I thought I'd check with the experts before I part with my cash.

Thanks in advance!

[NISMO]

Yep, sure are. Just check they fit over Brembo's if you have them.

My uncle has a 05 V35 with 19's and his are running spacers on the front i think(from the factory). Just make sure you get them if you need them. These are for the Genuine 19's

[WazR32GTSt]

factory spacers?? doesn't sound right..

a lot of those on the G35 forums run spacers because it gives the car a nicer look with the wheels flush with the guard rather than sunken in a bit. they're not legal though in any shape or form

also, finding a set of OEM 19s isn't an easy task. i think the best way to get a good set is to get some shipped over from the USA. you could get a good set with new tyres shipped for around 2k - 2.5k which is cheaper than buying from japan or locally in many instances

[CHO50N]

Yeah may not be factory however whole car is dead stock and it runs spacers on the front. Maybe the Jap that owned it just wanted them stting flush.

yep same with and offsets as the 18s, nice choice

they definitely fit over the brembos as well

[MaXiMuS007]

Yeah, I was looking at shipping them over from the USA. I figure if I'm going to be spending $300+ on tyres I may as well have 19s.

Thanks all!

There is or maybe was a very nice set for sale here in Aus. Check the for sale on here or maybe it was on the 350Z-tech.com site, in the Aus section. Saves shipping at least, if the price is ok.

[MaXiMuS007]

I've been checking the various forums incessantly.. can't find any locally unfortunately. Still likely cheaper from the USA due to volumes. Don't any of you go stealing my wheels!

I suppose my 2003 6MT doesn't have an interface for the Tyre Pressure Sensors?

Any ideas what a set of stock 18" rims is worth locally?

[rs73]

Haven't seen any 18" stock for sale, but came across one set of 17" with tyres, genuine V35 rims and the owner was asking around $600-ish +

or you can buy my 350z rays wheels which have same width and offsets as the forged 19s except these are 18s

Well funny that.. you have the OEM 18s and want the 19s, I have the OEM 19s and want the 18s, only problem is, I dont want to sell my 19s too bad ur in Melbourne too as I can't find any OEM 18s anwhere either.

Best thing about using OEM wheels is that it sits perfectly on the hubring without requiring the use of a plastic centric hubring locator

[MaXiMuS007]

Thanks - I like the look of the 19s better, plus if I'm going to spend shedloads on tyres they may as well be 19" instead of 18"

Ha! Come on, you know you want them!

Does anyone know if I can use the Tyre Pressure Sensors on my 2003 coupe or is it only an option from 2004 onwards?

Maximus007, If you want to sell the 18's i am interested pm me so we can sort out a price

[MaXiMuS007]

Nismo (and all those who are interested),

I found out at the last minute that the tyres were completely unroadworthy (thought they'd be ok for a few weeks) so I had to put on a set of brand new Hankook K104s (225/45 front, 245/45 back) to last me until the new wheels arrive.

I was originally going to sell the rims without useful tyres, but if you are still interested in paying a fair price with 99% tyres, then the answer is definitely yes.
