Infiniti G35 19's on a civic

Steevos · 06-09-2007, 07:10 PM

Ok, Food for thought.

Come to find out the 19's that come on the 07 manual G35 will fit our civic.
Thinking about running them if i can find a good deal?

Any thoughts on this?

**also if you have done this or have seen this done pictures are greatly appreciated.**

I just think the G35's Rims are clean, and not to over-done!

THANK YOU!

As a G35/Civic owner I think it would look okay. They are infact a discontinued Rays brand of rim anyway so it's not like you are totally crossing the line with going with another manufacturers OEM rim.

i have a 05 g35 with factory 18's and i actually tried the swap... i would need spacers because of the crazy offsets compared to my si. if you can figure out that offset differance then i say go for it. 19's are very big though. the civic body seems kinda small in my opinion for 19's. the 18's where perfect for a show look. rays makes the 18 inchers as well. good luck man

yes..i totally agree ^..they are a really nice clean style of wheel!

i've thought of this before too... they would look sweet on a civic IMO!

those are the G35Coupe wheels? then it's 18x8 and +30mm offset.

unfortunately no spacer's going to work cause you're going the wrong
way. your civic uses mid/low +40's... the only other way would be to roll
the fenders on your civic.

I've done it before with my brother's G35 19's. It looked pretty good but my car got higher. But the wheel gap came to like a 1 finger gap (Car is stock). And the tires will stick out since the offset is +22 I think. I drove it around for a day and if you don't roll your fenders you'll be rubbing. Like at a slow 90 degree turn I was rubbing. But I still could chirp the tires.

..any chance you know the name since they are dicontinued?

maybe i can do a mini search and get the real rays if someone is getting rid of theres?

thanks

i dont have a pict but as one mentioned above, the circumference is
considerably larger on the G's wheels vs civic. you'll need to get very
low profile tires if 19's... those that look like rubberbands.

No idea but I remember seeing them about a year before the 05 OEM rim came out. I doubt you would find anyone with the actual Rays rim...in anycase you could just get new center caps and they would be exactly the same.
