hey all,

my v36 sedan is currently at the compliance workshop so it won't be long now - yay!

in the mean time, i am trying to organise some new rims. it's a my2007 type sp so the stock rims are 18x7.5 (FR) and 18x8.5 (RR). my questions are:

- any ideas what i could go comfortably up to?

- will 20s be too large? are tyres easility available?

- how wide can i go?

- will i need different widths to match? eg 8.5 fronts and 9.5 rears

any help would be appreciated. actual experience would be even better.

thanks for reading.

20's are fine. Yes they are easily available.

i went for a 20X9.5 +15 front 20X10.5 +18 rear on my coupe, which is *very* aggressive offset.

widths, sizing, and offset is all dependant on how you want the car to sit.

IMO the "stance" (offset & widths) is just as important as actual wheel design choice.

check out http://www.rimtuck.com and searching for a infiniti g37 sedan for some sizing / pics.

thanks for the link. thats a great looking website. i couldn't find anything under g37 sedan, but i did find a couple of 19s under g35 sedan.

your set up must look awesome. i can't believe how wide you've gone - 2inches over (my) stock!! i'd love to see some pics if you have them. also, do you have a (4 door) sedan or the coupe?

sedan or coupe? coupes come in stock 19s, sedans come in stock 18s. mine is a sedan.

who is doing your compliance? if they are stock rims, i don't see how it would have any compliance issues. might be harder to get the right tyre placard.

got pics of your rims/car?

Hi all I have 22s on mine 2008 v36 SP. I am looking for anyone who has the Stock 19s as I sold mine to the shop when I got the 22s. I am interested in a swap for the 22s aswell, Just really want to 19s back.

If anyone is interested pls PM me and we can come to some sort of deal

Cheers

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
