Acceleration and braking both feel much stronger but the back end kicks out way too easy under card cornering.

G35 Coupe "Sport Package"
engine bay is looking very nice. good work!

not feeling the wheels. they look to small and sunken, IMO.

how about just picking up some used TE37 19x8.5 , 19x9.5 +22 all around. those suckers are light!

For the price/weight ratio, you can't beat the 350z track rims. I definitely felt a difference when I changed my OEM 18s for these, and I ran that setup for years. I still have one rim left that I am using as a full sized spare.

You should polish the lips.

wish I had it for myself.

I like the suggestion to paint and polish lip. I would go with with a satin black.

Front
Size: 18x8.0
Offset: +30mm
Weight: 18.19lbs
Tire: 225/45/18
Rear
Size: 18x8.5
Offset: +33mm
Weight: 18.62lbs
Tire: 245/45/18

Those are just factory specs. 18 pounds for each rim is really good. Our 19 inch OEM wheels are 19 pounds in the front and 21 pounds in the rear. These wheels probably feel great. How much did you pick them up for?
