Thinking of buying these!

Hey all im new to the community been going around these forums for the last few weeks tho. Ive had my DG g35 coupe for a little over a year now and am finally getting some things done to it. Ive been thinking of buying these wheels. What do you guys think? Any advice on offsets? Or any other rims you guys think might look good?! Thanks in advance!

I have them in chrome on my car and I like them, but I'm changing them for a set of Volks. The only problem I had with them was that the offset was 35mm front and rear so I had to put spacers on tehm for them to look right.

vrod i looooooove the way they look. The chrome looks real nice on the red. Im getting tint all around the car including my taillights, brake light on spoiler, and my corner lights. All black thats why ive been putting some serious thought into these wheels. Thinking DG with tints and black rims will look real clean.

I had two sets of those rims on my DG coupe within the last three years and loved them. To do this right, forget about 19" rims you need to get the staggered 20" x 8.5" front with 20" x 10.5" in the rear. I had both the black gloss and hypersilver both looked real good. I had both falken 452 and nitto 555 tires. You can see my car, just search for Coles improved g35 and you see what they look like.

go with 20"s, ebay or used something. those rims look good on paper, but they arent aggressive enough for a G.

Bad excuse not buyin it,
--chicago has worse roads, some aren't even roads anymore
--Get forged wheels if u can't avoid potholes,
--its a full time job for enthusiasts, holes, curbs, speed bumps, driveways at angles if u can't deal. Stay stock
--also u want to go 9 or 9.5 front, 10 10.5 rear, or stay stock, save you $
-- like they said above the offsets are weak so it won't look right, stay stockk and save your money

Or
-- if money is tight don't waste it here, biggest waste of money is this hobby, nothing economical about it, stay stock then
-- get a set of oem forged rays, cheapest and best quality for the money, and it won't leave your car with that almost there look.


My 2 cents

With 20's did you need spacers?

You will only need spacers if the offset of your rims are +23 and lower, also if you have a bbk you may need them. But again, offset of the wheel you choose will determine a need.

Size of wheel does not matter, 20, 19, 18, 17.

If the offset is say +30 on stock brakes you are safe for sure. Offsets in the low 20's and even lower like freddie07 an robzone +0 +7 and so on are generally custom wheels starting at $3k no tires.
