Thanks for the info. The problem I have with the 2007 G Sport is that the only tires which come in sizes to fit both the front and rear, at least as far as I have found, are the Potenzas or the GY Eagle F1's. I've had good luck with Toyo's on other cars, but they don't make a size to fit both front and rear. I'm leaning towards the GY's at this point. Not too much difference in price. If the GY's are anywhere close to the treadwear rating versus the Potenzas, I'll be happy. Just never know with that given the latitude the tire makers have with that.

scottm123,
Since this was getting beyond just the G35, I posted a follow up in the Ultimate AWD Sedan thread, post # 709 in http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/WebX/.f0a4375.ef3fcce/701

Fronts are 225-50-18 and rears are 245-45-18. Fronts are the ones that are a problem to find in other brands. Only seems to be the GY's and the Potenzas.

I have 7k miles and 2 snowstorms on on the GY Eagle f1s. I love them. Summer tires do not work in the midwest. I have the sport so rotating is not an option. The original Bridgestones are on the front (22k total now, probably another 3 until new ones there). I paid $210 each intalled for the rears.

I'm leasing my 07 G35S sedan and was wondering about the tires as well. We are actually pretty low on miles (10K) so changing the tires is not an issue yet. I did buy the tire warranty though and was wondering how this works. I know they won't provide new tires for wear, but if damaged they would. If I change tires how will this play into the tire warranty. Will that hold up for the next set of Potenza's I have to purchase? Also is there a good link someone can provide to find out the full details of the tire warranty?

I do not have a link, but if you bought the same warranty that I did from Infiniti, mine is a five-year warranty for damage to the wheels and tires. As long as you are the owner, you are covered for "equivalent" wheels and tires on the car. I just bought a new sent of tires, and checked carefully to see if they were covered. They are, so I was able to turn down the tire store's road hazard "extra cost" option on the tires.
The policy also covers my winter tires, which are mounted on a separate set of wheels.
