Default Just ordered Volks!

I just placed my order with F1 for a set of Volks - they should be pretty unique - I think they are going to be the first setup with these particular sizes/offsets...

19x9.5 +29 SF-Winnings Mercury Silver - front
19x10.5 +29 SF-Winnings Mercury Silver - rear

255/35/19 BFGoodrich G-Force T/A KDW2 - front
285/35/19 BFGoodrich G-Force T/A KDW2 - rear

Should look pretty sick! Too bad I'm going to have to wait 60+ days...

Post pictures when installed. I ordered the same tires for LE37T +22s. Hopefully they won't stick out. It's hard to get a direct answer about if the tires will stick out. I actually called Shawn at SGP Racing (very nice guy), he's the one with the G35C with 585 RW horse power. He told me they would fit. We will see in a few days. If not I will have to re-groupe.

I hope so - I've done research and did a lot pondering before I finally plopped down the deposit for these bad-boys - Don't worry, pictures will be coming out the wazoo when they're mounted...

You didn't want to go with a more aggressive offset?

2003 G35 Coupe - so no tire pressure sensors...

I ordered them from Chris at F1 motorsports - they had to be special ordered, so they should be coming in around February...

I didn't want to go with more aggressive offsets because I want to be able to have more freedom when it comes to tire size choices - I do not want to have to do any kind of fender work and I don't really like that look anyways (where the tire has to have 5 degrees of negative camber to fit within the wheelwell) - if I've done my homework correct, this setup should be exactly what I'm looking for (fat lips all the way around, wider tires than what most are running, and no fenderwork after a 1" drop).. I guess the pics will tell the story when it's all said and done...

I might switch over to those tires. That sucks for waiting that long. I got my wheels from F1 too but I only waited about a week! But if you want something custom, i guess you can't expect to get it right away.

WOw 10.5 fits? How wide could one go with the correct offsets? I'm set on going 19 x 9.5 in the rear but i was worried about rubbing with that. I want a big lip so maybe i should go 10?

Sucks u have to wait that long man...hopefully when i order my rims i won't have to wait that long

bobs- it depends on the offset of the wheel. there are a lot of people running 10.5 but some have had to modify/roll the fender for them to fit. I have 10.5 and have not needed any modifications to the fender. I would get at least 10's in the rear.
