07 Sedan Wheels

I thought I would post both sets of wheels available for the 07 Sedan. The first one is the 17" 10 spokes that come with the G35 and G35x. The other one is the 18" 7 spoke splits that come on the G35 with Sport package.

I am going to have the 18" 7 spoke splits since I ordered the Sport package, however I definitely like the look of the 10 spokes better. The sport package wheels look like they are going to be a real PITA to clean.

Not sure about the sport wheels.
Sometimes I like the look other pics not so much.....
Straight on they look good, from an angle, there's something about the way the spokes attach at the hub.
Here's hoping they look good in person.

Base wheels....

You should be able to do a swap with someone for the 17"s.
Then you could mount winters on the 17s & get a nice set of aftermarket summers

I like the 17's better, but as would be expected, there's too much meat on the tire sidewall.

canuck, thanks a lot for breaking down the difference in the wheels... I had not picked up on that and could not figure out what I liked better about the pics with the (now I know) 17" wheels. I like the 17's better too but then again, I am looking for the less-firm ride between the two choices (car for my wife). Also, since the website photos are the non-Sport, this shows that the chrome lip spoiler is on the non-Sport as well. BTW, I really like the chrome lip spoiler but I think it looks better on some colors than others. Like the photo of the Black '07 from Dubai... I like the chrome spoiler just fine on that color... not so much on the red.
