when i got those rims i was going to go for a luxury look but i am into light weight racing type stuff now..im working on the engine and think these rims would really give it a nice racing touch..plus im slowing working on a black and white theme for the car....i can get these through my dads tire and rim shop pretty cheap and sell my MOZ wheels pretty easily so what do you guys think??

Black ones: Only if you are on a budget
Chrome ones: Never unless you want to be in a rap video


Com'on man put something on that's at least equal to the value of your car. Don't do the G like that.

IMO, those rims staggered would look sick. The five star will cover up the OEM brakes a little and that red emblem will accent the red calipers. You will have extra meat on the wheels for the more track/sport look. In addition the black wheels will go well with the smoked out tail lights. Go for it.

Okay black is not cheap just the ones you posted. I hate rap videos as much as you. So since you are asking for opinions, I am saying neither. But then it's your car so if you are set on one of those, then I will have to pick the black ones over chrome anyday.

And yes go with 19x10.5 rears and 19x9.5 fronts with around +22 offset and you'll be golden. BTW, what is your budget? That would help too.

Uh..I never mentioned poilished metal. I'm actually saying stay away from the metal unless it's just the lip. I know not everybody wants to drop 3500+ on a set of Volks but there are cheaper alternatives.

this is where I am coming from. I drive a 350z and always looked at Zs as more of a track/race car. The G35s have always seemed a bit more refined under the infiniti name. IMO, if owned a G I would put something nice on it. Worse thing in my eyes is somebody driving a nice car with cheap wheels on it.
