Re: whys this sedan so cool? rims

Hey jedmonds,

Off topic for a sec, on your Nismo Body Kit, do you have a problem with the side skirts and rear skirt not matching the rest of the car? Because on my white G35 sedan, depending on how the light hits the the car, my skirts look greyish, but other times it looks pretty close to the same color as the rest of the car. Its weird... Just curious if you noticed the same thing with yours..

Re: whys this sedan so cool? rims

I really like the looks of the coupe stock 18's on the sedan!!!! I'm thinking of doing this myself since I'm in a lease. I've been told that you can turn the car in at the end of the lease with the coupe 18's and it's not considered breaking the lease agreement.

My only concern is I would want to get the same size tires for all 4. So I guess my 2 questions are, what are the tire size recomendations, and do I have to lower the car if I put these on? When I say "have to", I mean, will it look bad if it's not lowered?

Re: whys this sedan so cool? rims

Take a look at the pics on my Profile

I put the 18" coupe rims/tires on and did not lower it. I was considering lowering my sedan but am still considering my options. By options I mean, I might just move to a different size tire instead of lowering it. I think if I just get a good size tire to fit the gap in the front, I really wont need to lower the car since all im going after is the look of things and not performance.

Im considering going with either 235/45 or 235/50 all the way around. It really depends on what brand tires I can get in either one of these sizes.

Hope this helps!

Are those the Brembo brakes on this sedan or did the owner paint the calipers yellow?

The original picture on this thread is NOT of chromed 17" non-sport stock rims. The stock 17" non-sport rims are 6 spoke. I know, I have them.

Sorry, the .jp link didnt work at first, but now it does. Definitely 6 spoke stockers. Could be chromed or photoshopped. Looks good. Would probably cost a ton to have them stripped and chromed though.

Ok, since that's my car I'll chime in. I purchased the brembos (calipers, rotors, lines, pads) from a coupe owner who upgraded to the StopTechs. I ordered iForged rims and told Vince that I was going to put the Brembos on so he made the rims custom so they would fit.
