Welcome! The G37 hub bore is 66.1mm. Our cars have a hub bore of 64.1.

If you drive relatively normally, you could get away without getting hub rings.

However, I'd always get plastic rings over metal ones. You might also want to get different lugs. You'll need "mag" style lugs.

and you better get some spacers because g37s wheels don't clear the front brakes on the type-s or the 04-06 with brembos. I tried mounting them before.

Yes you need a drop. Depending on the tires you have of course but I can fit both of my hands in the gap. Getting a dropped soon on H&R

Edit I hate iPads auto spell check when it gets the wrong word all the time!!

I didn't need any modifications because I dont have brembos. I've had them-- bought them awhile back. Where are you in Katy?

And yeah you will have to buy some gorilla lug nuts or larger lugs-- thankfully discount tire gave me some for free even when they didn't want to but for legal reasons they probably didn't want to put the stock lugs on.

I don't know if you need new hub rings. All you need, I think, is spacers.

you can get spacers with pressed in studs that are for a honda so they will be hubcentric with 64.1mm. And you will have to add another hub ring on top of that one to match 66.X for those wheels you got. Search WHEEL SPACERS there are 10000 threads about it. For those wheels I would go with 15mm up front and 20 in the back. And I wouldn't use stock infiniti tires either, sizes are all wrong for a TL. Good luck

Good luck OP and in for pics
