its not that just because you did something different that people don't like it...

...its just that you went all chrome, and all chrome is not in style anymore, :especially: on our coupe G35's.... (in other words, i think it would be easier to pull off an all chrome look these days if you had a sedan and went for VIP)

*shrug*

also, i think your definition of what "ricer" is is completely off from how most people view the term,

You did better getting all chrome iforged, or Work wheels. Also, to add one more thing, I like chrome wheels, just not on these cars...and especially your car color. If you would've done Black Chrome, it would've looked 10 times better.

well, it can work! or close to it.

if you dont want the race car look, that's fine!

here is an example of one of my favorite non-racecar wheels on a coupe:

https://g35driver.com/forums/20-inch...llano-vsq.html

those wheels definitely give the car a more luxury look than sporty, IMO. I know, they are not completely chrome, but it was just an example.

i think where it gets vague is that you didnt want a race car look, but your chrome wheels are still double spoked? whereas the VSQs above are solid... the double spoke looks more race carish!!

Guys, All B.S. aside. i do like some Volk and Work wheels. There is a guy on here with the Volk VS-XX that i think look good. but it just wasnt what i was shooting for. I have a set of iforged formulas on my turboed S2000 in brushged aluminum and wanted a more luxury look with this.
Only wheels, lowered and maybe small other stuff is all im gonna do to this car. It is My DD.

The only thing that matters is your opinion. If you like the way they look that's great, enjoy them. I personally don't like these on this particular vehicle. A little to "bling bling".
