Is this a good deal for these wheels? (pics)

Hi All,

I am about to purchase new rims for my 07 OB Coupe..



The store is selling these ADR 97's (20") for $1450(cdn) new with rubber. However they are not staggered, but he says he can throw in some spacers and get a wider sized tire (245) to make it look half decent.

Is this a good deal? I'm driving down to the store today i just want the g35 community to give me a heads up!

PS. as you can see below.. i badly need some bigger wheels!



thanks all

245 is the "wider" tire? Ugh. I actually like your concave look of your oems. Try to find an used set of quality 19s or 20s with decent rubber vs settling for a non-staggered set of cheap adrs.

Hell, a set of oem coupe 19s would be a WAY better choice than those ADRs. Both in quality and fitment. And you should be able to find deals in Vancouver BC all day, every day. I'm in Seattle so I sorta know the NW market.

trust me on this, 245 for the rear is wayyyyyy to ugly, even if you do put spacers its gonna look like a go-kart

i agree with most of the people here. pass man save your money and get better wheels. you can get some awesome used wheels in the marketplace section that are way better with rubber. i was in the same position back then and trust me it is worth the wait
