19" G37S Coupe Wheels on my 07 G35X (Pics)

I've been wanting to replace the stock 17s on my 07 Journey for some time and had been looking for some Infiniti wheels in either 18" or 19". I really needed to find a good deal and preferably locally so I could keep the costs down. Yesterday, I stumbled upon some 19s from a G37S Coupe on Craigslist. They included Bridgestone RE760s (245/40 Front & 275/35 Rear) with 75% tread life left - this was huge since I couldn't afford to spring for new tires too. The tires are only .5% different in rolling circumference too, which eased my mind about running a staggered setup on the X. The best part - got them all for $600 and the owner lived literally 1 mile from my house. There is some curb rash (which is why they were cheap), but no more than my stock 17s had. I'm also running 20mm spacers in the front and 15mm in the rear with these, but I'm thinking I might not even need them. I should also mention that I'm not getting a drop and am happy with the stance/ride height, so the "get a drop!" comments will fall on deaf ears.

Anyway, here are the pics!

Nice find Looks great on your ride that needs a drop ASAP, lol
Even better that it was within walking distance
As long as the rash isn't major you should be able to get them cleaned up for not too much, and powder coating them gunmetal would be a good unique look once you get them de-rashed.

Thanks, everyone. I'm really loving the look and not to mention the handling improvement with all the extra rubber and short sidewalls! I know it would look a bit better with a drop, but I'm convinced I need the extra ground clearance for our Colorado winters when the snow gets deep. Who knows, maybe I'll change my mind about that down the road.

Wheels look great.

Just get coilovers... raise the car for the winter and lower it for the summer. You will thank yourself for it

I would really love to do that, just not sure I can afford them! Now, what can I sell around here...?
