I would think about trading for something else. Pretty sure I'd rather have herpes than Thruxtons.

I saw them on a coupe and they looked okay. When you ask for people's personal opinions expect to get alot of negative reactions. Especially if they are not Rays, Iforged or some other expensive wheels. I want to see TSW Nurburgring's on a G.

there are very good wheels out there that are not Rays/Volks/Advan/IForged, etc. HRE, DPE, AME, Jline, Forgestar make some attractive set ups. Even the TE reps are 10x better.

Those look nice. I think the oem coupe rays look better though. The thing I have against TSW is that they are cast and generally alot heavier than I would like.

^^ I did notice that they were really heavy when I was looking at them. I just really like my xxr's and I'm not sure if I want to get rid of them. The rears are too big so if I get these I will finally be able to lower it

Throw up a pic of the XXRs. If they're the ones I'm thinking of, I like them a lot. What size/width/offset are your rears? They might be able to fit with a bit of tweaking.

We are fortunate to have OEM forged options from Infiniti/Nissan that fit our sedans almost perfectly. So we/I are a little biased when asked about aftermarket wheels that are a bit heavy. For many, weight isn't a big deal.

But for me, if I can get a set of forged oem wheels in the size/offsets I want and have them actually look good, I'm all over that. One downside that lots of guys run oem 18" Z tracks or coupe 19s. But it's only common on a board like this. I've only personally run into a sedan with coupe 19s maybe once. That and one 350z running them.

Quite true. The OEM Rays are VERY good wheel that can be picked up at a reasonable price for the quality. Fitment is great on sedans and they look clean as well.

IMHO, those are WORLDS better than the Fhuxtons. Are you rolled in the back? It does look like your tires are too large, you might benefit from getting a set of 265s. It doesn't look like you're really low, so you should have a good amount of room to play with in the quarter panels.

How wide are your wheels?
