any pictures of aftermarket 17's

i've searched about 15mins and i've only found one person with pictures of aftermarket 17's installed on their sedans.

https://g35driver.com/forums/923837-post10.html

I figure i would see a lot of ASA wheels that are running snow tires and etc. But i'm looking for new rims. I'm not exactly a chrome styling guy rolling in 20's. I'm not exactly looking to spend $2000 on just VOLK wheels alone.

Since i've got an X, i cant even pick up 1/2 the wheels that are for sale right now because most of them are off coupes and they are staggered.

I'm currently considering the 19's RAY's, 18's Z track wheels, 18's rota boost and 19's NISMO a34. also a whole bunch of 17's because they really fit my budget very well of sub $1200 with tires.

I think those 17's wheels look sexy on that car. I'm not looking for a super drop because of the lack of front struts on the X models.

Why don't you try coupe 18s? They are non-staggered, 18x8 all around, and run pretty cheap in the marketplace.

From the factory they have a staggered tire setup, 225/45 and 245/45, which is what I run because my sedan is RWD. You could slap some 235/45 or 235/40s on all four and call it a day. I love mine and they are super easy to clean. Much more aggressive than stock and still great for daily driving. Good luck with whatever route you choose!

I have a set of M45 sport 19s for $950. PM me. These are the best option for the X, I just got tired of them and tracked down a set of 4 rear coupe 19's for something different.

well i'm actually looking to see what 17's can look like. mainly because price for tire is like 50% less then 19's to begin with. Plus ride comfort and a whole bunch of other things as well.

the m45's are to my likings as well. i'm just mainly looking for pictures of 17's. at this point even snow tire ones would be great.

Sedan sport 17" wheels are decent looking and cheap. Its gonna look funny with aftermarket 17s imo.

IMO you should stick with OEM wheels. They look clean and not like you are going with tiny cheap aftermarket wheels.
