Wheel size and Photoshop request

I bought my wife an 03 sedan and will be ordering a set of konig runaways for it today. Im not sure if I should order all 17x7 or so 17x7 in the front and 17x8 in the rear. What do you think? I will be moving the stock size tire over in the front but going with a bit wider in the rear as it is boosted.

Also, a quick photoshop would be great. The car is just a silver sedan on a bit of a drop. Below are a few google pics.

Looking at picking up a set of these wheels today for my wife. Want to see what it looks like on the car. I am doing the all black wheel color.

seems like an odd wheel choice for a boosted car..
I would think you would want a lot more wheel

either way, if your only choices are 17x7 or 17x8 I would run the 17x8 all the way around.. unless you have to keep the stock 215 tires, they wouldnt fit right on an 8" wheel, so you would have to do the 7f 8r

if you are set on the 17's because the tires are too good to throw away, then just wait until you wear them out and buy 18's or bigger.. aftermarket 17's will not look good, the G is just too big

I think I will be running a 225 series in the front on the 18's and a 255/45/18 in the rear. Should sit well, no?

Sounds like you have a pretty cool wife. My wife doesn't know about modifying cars or anything about cars, she's just know how to get in and drive, that's it.

LOL she hated cars when she met me. Just didnt care. Then she started to love them. She sold her Jetta and we got her an 05 Scion XB release series--bright yellow with black and yellow Konig Daylites for it. Now she has decided it is too slow and wanted a new car. Got her looking and che liked the G35's and needed a 4 door. And to top it off, the turbo sedan was too good of a deal to pass up so we swooped in.

So I guess your G35 is pushing at least 350-400 HP? That's pretty fast.
