IMO the car looks pretty good - I agree the rims are over-sized; the chrome doesn't suit the car too well, but hey I'm not ridiculing him for that now am I? GThIrtYFiZle, your boys G looks good bro.
As you say, every one is entitled to express himself. Including myself, which I did.

That's all part of it. After all, the thread is titled "What do you guys think about this car?" We were asked our opinions. I stated mine.

Yeah...moving on...

I think what everyone forgets that this car actually looks tight for a G35 on dub-2's. What I'm saying is that I expected much worse but actually, if you were to put 22" rims on the G35...this is how you'd do it, in addition to a drop and...yeah that thing definitely needs more tire.

I also don't think anything bigger than 20" is necessary, both for rims on the G and in other departments . But ****, it does look pretty tight in its own way, and, considering that the first connotation of 22" wheels is the word "ridiculous", it's perfectly understandable to carry on the brazen theme and inclue the 22" emblems and even the chrome middle bars. Although what I would personally do is chrome door handles...but that's just me.

Power to the people man, I respect this car alot more than a totally stock one (like mine ).

I'm guessing your buddy is a pimp?

Just kidding. Wheels are just too large and it upsets the lines of the car. The profile shot is the most telling. Cartoon-ish comes to mind.

But hey, no matter. As long as your friend likes it.

If I were a member of the Icy Hot Stuntaz, I'd love the ride.

It must be a New York/Jersey thing because most of us throughout the country see overly large rims to be rather silly and dramatically impair the handling, braking, and acceleration of an excellent performing sport/luxury car. It seems that most car enthusiasts in the NE are more concerned about image and bling then most of us elsewhere. That's why there is such a backlash against overly large rims.

I can guarentee you that the 07 G35 pictured above stops about 20' longer from 60, is 1-second slower in the 1/4 mile, rides horribly, and handles much worse then stock.
