***New pics on page 5***

Paid for my wheels a minute ago, and hopefully they'll be here end of the week/early next week. Amazingly, the wife didn't give me any grief, considering she was home when the JIC box arrived in the mail and I hadn't told her I ordered it

Here's the wheels:


Now I just have to decide on tires. I was originally thinking of trying out the Yoko S-drives, but my friend who installs tires said that they're prone to "cupping," and that the set he tried to warranty with Tire Rack was denied. I guess I'll just stick with my tried/true Kumho SPTs.

 

those look really nice. i just got my wheels too.

 

Congrats San! Glad he finally came back. and your new shoes are finally on thier way to a new home!!

 

THOSE look nice

 

Very nice, San!! Defiitely let me know what you think of the JIC's!!!

 

I PM'd you, but it must have gotten lost in your "Sea-of-an-inbox."

BTW, the 2nd hole on the sways is PERFECT. I easily exceed the limits of the crap RE's, and I can't wait to get some real tire under there.

 

Wheels shipped out today

 

Rims came in, woot:



Tires will be here on Friday (I'm going to run FK452's), post some pics when I get them all mounted. The rim color is a bit darker than I expected, but I was pleasantly surprised as they seem a real dark gunmetal (which will actually look better). To tell the truth, the color looks like a GTR oem rim color.

Poll: should I use the painted center caps or the stock silver ones? I'm leaning toward the stockers, let me know what you guys think.

 

IMO i like the contrast of the silver center caps/ silver lug nuts on gunmetal/ black wheels. i plan to powdercoat my G37S coupe wheels a matte black this coming fall and running the above set up ie silver caps & lugs on black wheels

 

Rims lookin sweet San!! Yea I think the OEM Silver caps would look better, add a little contrast to the rim! Can't wait to see it on your G san!

 

Ya, silver center caps for sure.

OT: anyone know how much a set of center caps cost?

 

Those ar egoing to look sweet man. congrats.

 

Love the color! Those are going to look sweet!!!

 

You should try using your current OEM stock center caps. But bump for nice color~

 

I am for sure. I just gotta get an idea of that price, so I can adjust my asking price when I sell the stock wheels without them
