The man said he's looking to spend around $1k for a set of four...

My suggestion: keep on saving. If you're going with aggressive 19's you'll be spending that much on just the tires...

You must not have noticed the fact I said I have a wholesale hook up, but what wheels do you suggest? and I am looking for wheels that look like the ones I posted in my thread.

offsets are a difficult thing to explain to someone who doesnt have a general idea. best advice i have is for the OP to google it and start reading up. one of the worst things one can do when wheel shopping is purchase a set of wheels without knowing how to calculate offsets and then wind up with some rediculous high offset,sunken wheel simply b/c the guy on the phone told him they would fit.

Yeah those are the Noble 3 piece, those wheels are EPIC!!! Very pricey though! One of the sickest G35's I've ever seen is on these wheels, check it!

the lower your offset the farther your wheels stick outside the fender.

So the offset is like what you would talk about with the use of spacers right?

I get offset now, where the hub is literally mounted. Either in the center of the wheel, inward towards the brake or outward toward the street side... Isn't it basically what type of lip and what size lip, sort of... I hope that's right damn! haha
