G35 sedan with R505 black 19X8.5? Lower?

I am interested in buying rims similar from this website www.rpmwheels.com their model R505 in black in 19X8.5 does anybody have a set up like this? If you do can you share some pics and let me see how it looks like, and a question for all you G35drivers out there, do you think its necessary to lower it? If you dont well it look weird?

Honestly, those look like cheap knock-off wheels. The R505 are copies of the HP EVO wheels.

if you're not a fan of wheel gap, you'll need to lower when you slap 19s on a sedan. i thought i could get away w/ it, but even on 18s i wanna lower a little
