I think those would look good in 18", maybe 19", but no larger.

They look great, but anything bigger than 18s will make the disc brakes look too small, they would look killer with 13" cross-drilled brakes.

Ah, Advan Model 5. G35C would look great with this wheel. Its not easy to get though and if it has to be ordered from Japan, good luck. It can take several months to arrive. I gave up and ordered another wheel.

Re: Tell me what you think..

WICKED wheel... i was lookin at that on a green nsx ..

super pricey ..

yep there are knock offs of this wheel..

check www.cbwheels.com

they got some I think...

they look OK on the g .. I did some pics .. the split 5 star look on a rim with no dish looks a wee bit too sporty for the class of the g IMO .. thats why they look wicked on a sporty NSX

trust me .. I wanted em....

be very careful what rims you put on you g !! It will change the whole car...

look at the TE37's on the Top Secret Skyline... yahknow???

not my flavahhh

later g

Re: Tell me what you think..

Hi kkh713x. There are several "knockoffs" of this wheel, but their quality is questionable. As you probably already know, the Advan are $$$$. They are cast wheels, but for that price, one would expect a forged wheel, which would be a stronger wheel. Be careful about buying a "knockoff", if its poor quality, you will be replacing bent rims frequently. I'm waiting for my Blitz Technospeed Z1s. Fortunately this wheel is in stock and I should have them in a few days. Momo makes a similar wheel, called Sport, but the offset is wrong for the G35C. I've considered many aftermarket wheels, and it seems that most of the wheels that have the proper offset are Japanese, and if they have to be ordered from Japan, expect a very long, ie. several months wait.

Re: Tell me what you think..

Hey, Assuming that you have the G35C performance package w/ the "chrome" 18" rims why would you want to spend more and change the already beautiful looking rims that Infiniti has designed for the vehicle? I just don't understand why people don't appreciate what comes with the car from the manufacturer.

Because not everyone thinks the same thing is beautiful. Also it's prob the best way to personalize your car, or stand out from the hundreds of other g35's that look just like yours.

TorontoG35c:

The non-chrome 18s (I think chrome wheels are hideous) are a beautiful wheel, but they are narrow. I would prefer to have a wider wheel in the rear. Also, I think a 19" wheel fits the body of the car a bit better (especially if the car is lowered). Putting aftermarket wheels on the car is also a way to make a car stand out from every other G35.
