I'm in Spring and live in a nice neighborhood. Apparently several Gs were targeted around here lately according to the UPS man, he's seen 3 more of them on blocks in this area. As soon as I find another set of Gravis1's I'll let you know the 18's are for sale.
Damn, that's crazy. Odd that they were targeting G's specifically. The only G sedans I see around here (Katy and Energy Corridor) are bone stock with grandmas driving them.

Definitely let me know on those wheels. My set is in decent shape, but they came from four different sources so one doesn't match perfectly and another is more nicked up than I'd like it to be considering I plan on keeping this car for another 2-3 years.

Will do, mine have a little staining like most OEM rims but are very clean and free of nicks with absolutely no curbage..

Damn Blue_Dream I can't believe this **** happened to you. Your car was definitely one the the top 10 sedans in this forum and those wheels were like the cherry on top. Sorry brother.

Why not get em refinished? Most powdercoating shops charge like 350-400 to refinish and powdercoat all the rims. And they have colors similar to oem

Still no word on the stolen rims, looks like they're gone. replaced my rear tires with new Michelins and wanted to put them up front as well. But, the 245/45s were too tall and they didn't offer the Super Sports in 235/45 so I went with the Bridgestone RE760As and wow is all I can say. Both sets are the shizz and my car rides smoother and quieter than it ever has until I push it since I've owned it. Definitely a big difference in ride quality going from 19s to 18s. Here's why the 245s wouldn't work lol.

I'm weird and like the bigger sidewalls, makes the ride smoother. And Mustang I do too, I'm on the prowl for a set of chrome coupe 18's. I'd like to rock those until I find a replacement set of Gravis1s.

I've been saying for 5 years that I'd get a set of OEM 18's for my sedan and haven't yet. Not sure i will, but i've been really loving the G37 sport rims.

I recently put Michelin Super Sports on my coupe and I was blown away too. There is no way on public roads I can safely get anywhere near the limit of my car now. I will never use another high performance tire!!

Still no word yet Tim? Our wheels have the same bolt pattern as Lexus and a few other brands so don't just look at Nissan's.
