MRR GT-1 20s Staggered on Infiniti M35

When our customers come to us, they expect a high level of quality in all of the products we sell.  Our customers demand the best, and they all have one thing in common: to break away from the typical cookie-cutter looks that everybody has done, or seen done, in the past.

This was also the case for the guys over at Jones Motors, when they contacted us about adding a touch of originality to their customer’s car.  The stage was set – a stock 2006 Infiniti M45 that looked to be fresh off the showroom floor.  This car had class, and had style, but something was missing.  This needed something more to complete the overall look that the customer was going for.

We started off the transformation with a set of new shoes.  The wheel and tire package includes a staggered set of hyper silver MRR GT-1′s, 20×8.5 up front, with an aggressive 20×10 in the rear.  This package was made complete with a set of Nitto NT555 245/35/20 front and 275/30/20 rear tires.  Just this alone really set off the car, and gave it an aggressive look, especially with a 10 inch wide rear wheel.  The 4 inch rear lip made a bold statement and let everyone know what this car was all about.

Even with a daring wheel and tire combo, this car needed more, and the customer knew that as well as us.  Next on the list was a set of Eibach Pro lowering springs.  We wanted the car to hug the pavement, but still provide a great ride and excellent performance at the same time.  Eibach was the undeniable choice to meet these strict demands.  We installed the springs right here in our shop in Tempe, Arizona, and the results were unquestionable.  The car sat roughly 1.6 inches lower in the front and 1 inch in the rear, and had a nice aggressive stance.

With everything that was done to the car, the customer couldn’t have been happier.  We achieved every look he was going for – the car was sleek, low, and aggressive.  It had style now, and it had it’s own touch of originality that is unmatched by any other.  We were happy to help out a customer, our customer was happy with the end result, and fortunately, there will never be a case of identity crisis with this completely original M35.

Update 6/9/09:

Here is another M35 we installed 20″ staggered GT-1′s on.  This car is slightly newer than the first M35 we did and is a ’07 model with the OEM lip kit.  This car also was lowered with Tein H-Tech lowering springs.  This customer chose to run nothing but the best for tires, hence the 245/35/20 & 275/30/20 Toyo T1R’s.  This proves once again that you can’t go wrong with the clean, classy and sporty look of the Hypersilver MRR GT-1′s.

    The guys at Element wheels were great. Great service, selection, and prices. I truly am overwelmed by how great I was treated and the knowledge of wheels these guys have. Saw a good movie on the big plasma while I was waiting. The water was cold and free as well. I am the owner of the 2007 Blue M35.

    Thanks guys!

    Hey!! I have a M45 06 in Mobile, AL and I am very interested in the staggered fitment. What offset are you guys using in the front and rear?

    I have a 06 M35x AWD And people are telling me that I can’t put staggered rims on a all wheel Drive is that true????

    In order to keep the optimal performance of your vehicle, it is suggested that you do not use staggered wheels. That is not to say that you cannot put staggered wheels on your car. We have lots of customers that do use staggered wheels on AWD cars.

    To Element Wheels – Are you guys using new control arms to deal with negative camber with the Eibach kits?
