Question is if the wheels are legit .. since the price seems a bit low for a new set of those

You might also want to look into the weight of these things. Yet, regardless of silver or gunmetal, they do look GOOD on your ride

Not sure if this is correct but check out this.

Wait, are these Nismo rims forged?!? I just checked out that link and the prices are dirt cheap, $283.39 each. Damn these are cheap alternatives to CE28's.

Wow, so I looked at Performance Nissan's website and they go for $485 each on their site.

I looked up the rim specs and the rims are made by Rays and are 21.2 lbs.

I really might pick up a set now from that Lee's site, that's hella cheap. Maybe there's no Nissan/Infiniti enthusiasts in Auburn, Maine?

they look SICKKK. I am very much considering picking up a pair in gunmetal now. They are cheap, forged, and light. Can't get much better than that!

My girlfriend has basically the same silver G35 as you with all the Nismo ground effects, and IMO her car looks a lot more sporty than yours with the track wheels on. She got these 18in hypersilver replica sport wheels. I like those gunmetal Nismos for sure also. Too bad they don't come in hypersilver. The Z track wheels don't look all that sporty to me. What makes them track wheels anyway ?

car has since been lowered and now looks damn good to me

Either looks good, but for $285 per rim, I could think of a lot of other rims that would be just as nice.

the only difference between the two is that I don't have the nismo sides, my are oem painted sides.
