G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
Take your time and don't rush into a wheel purchase. Make sure you do your research and get what you want. There are a lot of wheels out there you definitely don't want to buy, then find out they are crap.

Welcome 'peg! You should check and see if Andrew37 still has his Volks for sale, also InTgr8r has a couple nice sets, sedan offsets though. Both are in the Cdn Marketplace.

i have done some research and i know alot about wheels, so i know the importance of weight in wheels and correct offsets and fitment so i don't need any knowledge when it comes to selecting the right wheel and the same with tires i understand what i need and should have, i just need to find a good wheel and tire setup for $2,000 because that is my wheel and tire setup fund. i dont mind used so i should be able to hopefully find something that will work right for what i want

hey whats up, i too am from wpg. what do you need new wheels so quickly for anyways, i wouldn't advise putting nice wheels on your car for 2 weeks, still supposed to snow this week.

Theres atleast 1 other guy in wpg with a g coupe, I've talked to him a couple times i think we should order a few parts etc. together (not to sound ***) but just to save money. i've got a 05 coupe in DG btw. look at my sig. for mods (basically none). anyways, well forsure havea meetup this summer.

I'd say just order new tires, but get some 265/35 R19. Don't move up to a 20 inch wheel, around winnipeg will just suck. they'll be damaged in a week, I don't know how I'm going to live with my rays 19'' wheels getting killed in this city.

just make sure you can fit 265's on the stock wheels (i'm assuming you have the rays?) definetly get something bigger then 245's.
