New wheels eventually turned up, but......
.......only after I've made the decision to sell the G
I spent many hours deciding on what wheels I wanted for my G35x and settled on the wheels below - Trafficstar RTS with the polished face/chrome lip finish.
I also spent a good while deciding on some VERY aggressive staggered fitments (for a sedan anyway).......yes I know many don't recommend that on an 'X', but I matched the radius of the tyres to within 0.3% front to back and was willing to chance my hand.
Got them ordered (special ordered driectly with Riverside in Japan) and FINALLY, almost 5 months later they turned up.
But now I've decided to sell the G so I'm feeling like a right dumbass now
Ah well, such is the problem when ordering something so specific that they take forever to turn up.
Anyway, here they are still with plastic protection on the outer lip......my god they would have looked good on the car

As for the quality, it never ceases to amaze me just how much better made the higher end *** wheels are compared to an equivalent 'high end' US made wheel.

You can't get the same polish/chrome finish with the Maya's and I think the available offsets are more limited too, although I'm not 100% sure on the offsets.

Could do with the cash to spend on the new house/impending new vehicle
The fronts are 19" x 8.5" with, if I remember correctly, a +29 offset.....I will double check on that though.
Rears are as shown in one of the pics, 19" x 10" +35 offset.
