Which OEM Wheel looks better? G35 Coupe Sport/ G37 Sport/ M45 Sport

So i just installed 19" g35 coupe wheels on my sedan. I wanted to stay OEM and didnt' want to lower my car for now. I actually went with a 245/40/19 tire in the front to keep the rolling diameter the same and wheel gap similar. hahaha, i suppose some might ask for some pictures?

I had the option to go with g37 19" wheels, but chose the old coupe wheels instead. I think the g35 coupe wheels actually look a bit sportier and more aggressive, but the g37 sport rims look classier and really should have been an option on the sedan. IMO they almost look better suited for the sedan vs the coupe.

Anyway, so i now have been presented the option of purchasing some m45 19" rims- the new ones on the 2008.

I haven't seen a sedan with the new wheels yet, but I'm sure it'll look sick. Perhaps the perfect combination of sport and class?

Anyone rolling with the new 19" M45 wheels? Do you have a picture preferably on a blue slate? The new wheels look a bit different, and are more of a silver finish which honestly will probably look even better on a blue slate.

I'm trying to decide if i should make the switch. I just put the rays on over the wknd, and it'll be a pia to make the switch then try and sell my rays.

So again, anyone have pics to share, and help me with my decision? I've been looking at pics of M45's all day to try and decide. I'm tempted to visit the dealership on my way home to look at them again in person.

Feel free to give opinions and thoughts. I'm tempted just to buy them anyway, figure out which i like better then try my luck at selling the ones i pass up.

oh, i got a good deal on the rays and will be getting a good deal on the m45 wheels. i probably could sell the rays for what i invested, and probably actually make money on the m45's. hahaha...

Based on the top question I would say the G37 wheels followed by the M sport wheels with the G35 coupe rims coming in last especially for the 2nd gen G35 sedan I think the G35 coupe rims are boring.

i relunctantly passed them up. hopefully another forum member was able to jump on them. if you live in the socal area maybe you can still jump on them.

all i know is everytime i see an m45 i'll probably wonder what the wheels would look like on my car. that said, i'm happy with the way the old coupe wheels look.
