If anyone wants to get rid of their 18's or 19's I will definitely buy them. I want to put them on my 2002 maxima. Those track rims are real nice. How much will they run you?

Besides, 19's looks smaller than its size due to its design. I didn't even consider getting 19's so I searched my way to get the performance package. People who think 19's are better looking are probably the people who buys their clothes at JC Pennys and places like that.

That's an American way of thinking huh? Bigger the better. Quantity than quality. Not for me.
Hey, everybody has on opinion and everyone should respect others but to say the people who buy the 19's are probably the people who "buys" their clothes at JC Penney’s, BTW good grammar "Mr. Armani". There is no point in being rude just because you have a different opinion. As far as the quantity over quality, are you familiar with a company called Rays engineering? How about Volk? Well guess who make the 19's for Infiniti? Just some advice, in the future do us all a favor and "think" before you post.

Don't get so fuc*in hot over me stating my own opinion. It seems like you are good at putting first generation Japanese like us down by saying we don't speak perfect English. Good job racist! BTW I knew Ray's and Volk's provided OEM rims but who cares?? If they're ugly, they're ugly. You think it's the sh*t because they are made by some famous Japanese Brand??
It seems like you need to think twice before posting too "MR JC PENNY."

Whoa dude, what’s up with the racist comment, who knew you were Japanese? And more so who cares, my point was you were being rude to other people on this forum that don't have the same likes or dislikes as you. If anybody is being a racist it's you and I quote- "That's an American way of thinking huh? Bigger the better. Quantity than quality". I respect your opinion but if you’re rude you’re rude.

Buahaha. Gosh, you guys! Leave the Poor First Generation ... nah, I'm only playing! But really, there are no racist here. Man, Scott is driving a Japanese car! If he was racist, it would have been a Chevy!

I have 19s and prefer 19s. By the way the 19s definitely improve performance - they give you more grip. Having larger wheels has the same effect as having wider tires without some of the minor disadvantages of wider tires (i.e. the wheel jittering when you are driving on a bumpy road).

As far as other cars, I think the M3 and the porsches are the only non-exotic (under 100 grand) cars that offer 19s and they both have it as an option. For the M3 it's almost a two grand option. But the rear M3 tires are wider than the G35s (the front ones are the same width).

AFAIK the g35 6spd coupe is the only car that has 19s as a standard equipment.

I was thinking of upgrading to OEM 19's. This is part of the reason I started this tread. I like both the 18's and 19's. I think they are both great looking wheels on the G.

One of my favorite G's on G35driver belongs to ScottR. Once I saw his G, I started thinking about getting the 19's. A pic of his G is my desktop background.

Scott your doing a great job with your G. I think you have excellent taste.

A G lowered on oem 19's looks sick!

Funny, I don't think I saw one who had the 19's and wanted the 18's. Only the other way around.
