just got my winters on...

I went to Alta today and had my set of winters and splash guards installed. I chose this set of 17"s over the 7-spoke QTs they also offered because these looked a lot different from the stock 18"s. I'm also a big fan of the deep-dish/riveted style of rims. These were ATA H-40s and are similar looking to much pricier BBS rims - Alta offers both the ATAs and the QTs w/Dunlop Graspics for $1499. + $44. install fee. They aren't the best snows on the market granted but they'll do the job I think...Pretty good deal if you ask me. The splash guards are understated and add a subtle flair to the car...

Re: just got my winters on...

Hi, I've had my car for one week, and I am loving it.
I am looking for snows, and you seem to have gotten one of the better deals.
If you don't mind my q's,
Is it 1499+tax that you got it at?
Was it at ALTA Infiniti?
Do you have Brembo callipers?

Thanks!

Re: just got my winters on...

no problem about your questions kb...
the price is $1499 before taxes.
yes - I got mine from ALTA Infiniti...they also have another style of rims by QT for the same price. This is what they look like...

Yes - I have the 6MT w/ Brembos - - - hence the need to get 17" rims that'll fit the suckers.

Good luck and enjoy the ride.

For those of you with an automatic G35 coupe, ALTA Infiniti now has 16" tires with the same rim for $1399 + $44 for installation + PST + GST.

Re: just got my winters on...

Hey there... so you went with 225/55/17 all around? Any issues with Traction Control or VDC kicking due to the change in tire sizes? Thanks.
