Man I hate the stupid Armos on Glenoaks. I went to Marie Callendar's with my mom to get some pies, and a white G35 sedan, the older model, with a riced out fireball looking exhaust lowered on stock wheels just kept gunning it and revving next to me.

SolidSnake2634 · 05-24-2008, 10:57 PM

shit. would i have to buy some TPMS?!?!

wj4 · 05-24-2008, 10:57 PM

No. 35-33 in the front. (Unless you're nuts like Long, then you can run some extreme offsets).

You already got the Bimmer? You can transfer them over from the OEM wheels.

WTF, you asking the same question over and over again? I already told you about the rear a couple of posts up.

Van-I've never heard of TPMS sensors breaking. Hell there's not even aftermarket TPMS. Only aftermarket brackets like the ones iForged makes.

That's when I posted up the info, lol.

SolidSnake2634 · 05-24-2008, 11:33 PM

okay. since it's 33-35 in the front and 25 in the rear, thats the closest the wheel can go to the fender without rubbing right?

That's a different problem then. That's due to human error.

If your friend wants a really aggressive stance, just go with the E46 M3 offset and roll the rear fenders.

I'm all for flushness, but there's a line that should not be crossed to where safety hazard becomes an issue. Like this........the wheel is a G35/350z fitment. I think the tire is a 235.
