Opinion on rims

I'm looking at a set of rims for my 06 G35X. I'd love to get some Iforged or something along those lines, but sadly such things arent in my budget. I can get a good deal on the rims outlined below. How do you think they would look on a black sedan? They're 18's

IMO, look for a set of Anniversary edition 350Z 18's or coupe 18's or 19's. Either will look better than those.

^^ I was gonna say exactly that! Not a fan of those chromies at all, plus they look like they weigh 35lbs each. What's your location and budget?

Please dont get chrome rims... they look very tacky.

Neverthelesss, I am in a similar situation, where I have 1000 to spend on wheels. I know everyone hates on cheap wheels and replicas. But for 1000 i can get bbs replicas and new tires. Should i do it?

That's pretty rough. Please don't get those. i actually found some aluminum rims on eBay. Yeah I know I know ebay.... But the rims have held up for 4 years with NO problems. I got them with the staggered setup.

I'm looking to spend up to $1500 for a set of rims and tires, 18's. I live in the GTA area. Thanks for the input, I respect the opinions of this site.

But seriously anyone will know they are fake, cause its one piece.


I'm seriously thinking about buying these though, but then i can always save up a couple more months buy some original stuff.
