Bought the G37S wheels, now I need the car
OK, let's all agree. The 2009 G37 sedan rims are hideous. There are plenty of posts and threads showing just how nasty the new 18" rims are. To me, they look like Pep Boys hubcaps.
You know what? The 07-08 G35 rims don't look all that good either. They look undersized and too narrow. I needed an OEM alternative in a big way.
When the opportunity to buy the wheels/tires from a 2008 G37S Coupe came up, I had to make the purchase. The wheel/tire package was a 210 mile take-off set with TPMS included. Better yet, the seller was local. Great guy. Perfect wheels
My wife can't understand buying rims for a car that I don't yet own.
Only an enthusiast would understand.

Mine should arrive sometime around Christmas

At first I thought the price was too high, but it did compare favorably to a recent Ebay auction for G37 wheels/tires that ended at $1775.

The difference was my set had all the TPMS (worth about $320-400) and had only 210 miles vs 2000+ miles. I hesitated bidding on the Ebay wheels when they were described as "near mint" condition and the seller wouldn't respond to email questions.
Buying local has many advantages including shipping cost savings and the ability to actually physically see the wheels before buying.

DeanOU - Damn when I saw how much you paid for your 19's I balked...envious I am...I guess that's what happens when impatience gets the better of you. I got mine about 1 month after the G37 coupe came out. Good job on getting the rims at the price you got them for. Hope your '09 sedan comes rolling out soon
