Post Brothers...my new wheels for my G35 coupe...but I feel like they're too big? y/n?

Brothers, sorry for the crappy pics...I will take better ones.

This is a before picture of my car..this was the first and only mod I did about 4 years ago...Eibach sportline springs to lower the car.








After with new wheel set-up....I am sitting on Eibach sportlines..I feel like I need to do something so the wheels aren't taking over the car...Maybe Stance G coilovers so I can tuck it and possibly a full front bumper change (inven) and side skirts (impul)? Let me know your thoughts brothers.

Hmm… I know what you mean when you say the wheels may be taking over the car. I'm sure it'll grow on you, but what may help would be if you made the wheels a darker color, maybe a gunmetal color. If not, then a bigger drop would definitely help. I think it looks good though.

See I really need to drop it..because I am stuck with the Eibach sportlines because they are just springs and will obviously not go any lower than this..

You need spacers and a drop, but I love the wheels.

Maybe some spacers. Other than that it looks fine to me.

The wheels look great! You feel this way because they're new and that's the first thing you see when you approach your coupe, you'll get use to it. Looking at your coupes profile she'd look better with a lip to elongate her profile, clear sides. I'd leave the grille alone unless you'd go with an embless grille from IONIC....Gary

The other contributing factor may be small brakes in a very open wheel design. BBK will fill up that space and only set you back a few grand, LOL! But srsly, I like the wheels, too. Specs would help us help you get them fitted properly.

I think the rims look great!! I felt the same way when i put 20's on my sedan.....but i liked it from the get go, even though they felt huge compared to the 17's i originally had. Im not sure about spacers? I took mine out, little too close for comfort when bottoming out occurs....
