They're made by Enkei, just like the OEM 18's on the coupe

exactly... the M35 rims are made by enkei and not rays... they're heavy rims but they look real clean on the G... i'd say get them if u can get a good deal on them... its always nice to keep that "stock" look

The M45 Sport wheels look awesome on the G. I wanted to put them on my G but they won't clear the Brembos even with spacers. So I had to settle on 20" Volk GT-7's instead.

The M45 wheels have several significant drawbacks that crossed them off of my list:

1. The wheels themselves are pricey

2. The tires are not staggered, they are 245 front and rear.

3. You still can't legitimately put a 265 tire on the rear 8.5" rims which means you are stuck rolling stock size or using oversized tires.

4. You need spacers all the way around.

When you add up what all of this costs to do this correctly (i.e. wheels, tires, spacers, installs) you might as well buy someone's Volks and call it a day.
