2 down, 2 to go

Look what I found under my tree!

Got two of my rims in this last week and waiting for the other 2 to show up.

I can't wait to put them on!!!

Congratulations! Nice choice on the GT7's. From the sticker on the wheel it looks like 18x8.0.

Can't wait to see pics on the car.

Thoes rims are tight - you guys are killing me w/all these wonderful mods. Even though my car is leased, looking at thoes rims makes me want to purchase a set for mine, for I know the G35's pop w/new rims.

Thanks my brothas!

Its been a few months of research and decision making...what style rim, then what rim, then what offset. From researching other threads (hell ya I used the search feature! ) and comments from other members (thank you very much), weight and quality also played a factor....and ofcourse I had a budget (so much for HREs)

Two weeks ago, I finally pulled the trigger! Had to order them in sets of 2 as no one had a complete set of the same size in stock. Didnt want to wait for Mackin to get them in from Japan (60 to 90 day wait).

I winded up getting 18x8 with a +37mm offset. Should make for a good fit. I got all of them for just under 2k (shipped with center caps). I had to deal with a few a55holes and one well known vendor who ultimately let me down (good prices but I had to stay on top of him...then in the end he couldnt even get me the rims and charged me a processing fee!!! WTF? )

You know I will surely be posting some pics as soon as I get them put on...hopefully next weekend.

Nismo kit next....then I'm done!....maybe?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL
