This is probably a long overdue post, and I waited so long mostly due to the fact that I did not have access to a good camera. I own a quick PAS camera, and am a complete and utter failure when it comes to taking any nice photos, and there just hasn't been any time for a proper photoshoot.
Anyway, I recently purchased a set of XIX X05 rims, 19s, 235/35 and 265/30, machined face, black barrel, for my 2003 RWD G35 sedan. I really want to thank Chris@Element for all the help he provided me in answering my millions of questions (shopping for rims on a budget isn't that easy) and really going out of his way to take care of me. Our back and forth conversations lasted several days before I was able to finally make up my mind, and Chris was patient and helpful throughout the whole process. Delivery time took about a week from the date of order, and came with hubcentric rings and lugs, with tires mounted, wheel wax applied, and in perfect condition.
The rims fit perfectly, although the fronts could do with a 10mm spacer. I am dropped on 350z suspension all around, and considering the potholes around Brooklyn, NY I don't want to go any lower than I currently am. Considering when I go do grocery shopping my rear rubs as is (no rolled fenders). Ill try to get some decent pictures up ASAP, however here are these for now:
