Good find. Thanks for posting. The wheels don't look as bad on the Lakeshore slate G.


Motive Mag:

"Did you just buy an '08 G35? Pity."

That's harsh.

Where is Terry? Last line "I liked the G37 even more now, and I really, really wanted to drive a turbo'd car. Call me if you have one."

Honda Accord
I'm assuming that the new sedan's powerband will be smooth like butter... just like the coupe version.

Yeah, but does it come in GREEN?? j/k, I really like the sounds of the 37xS sedan, and the looks are nothing a new set of wheels wouldn't fix.

I still think the sedan sport suspension sits a little high. There's still too much of a gap between the tires and the fenders. Also the wheels need a little bit more offset to fill the gap as well.

Keep in mind that that picture depicts the X.

I think that's the G37xS so it should have the sport suspension.

True, but the springs are different, the X has to be higher to allow better handling through snow and other adverse conditions.

Not a fan of the g37 sedan wheels!
Glad I didn't wait and moved on the '08. I really cannot stand those wheels! If those are the best they're offering for '09, that's LAME!

Forget the extra 20 or so hp!
