HI my name is luis

So i have been on this website for over 3 years (join date January 26, 2009)
I never really introduced myself.
I got my first car, 2004 G35 coupe, after high school (summer of 2008)
I recently bought a 2005 G35 sedan (December of 2011)
I've been here on this website always lurking around for ideas or any type of help.
I live in central Florida Clermont area.

now for some pics!


my 2004 coupe
mods: jwt intake,clear corners, painted black (roof, rear view mirrors, rear valance, grille) 06 projectors, 06 sport front bumper, varrstoens 2.2.2, de-badge trunk except emblem.









my 2005 sedan
mods: z tube with k&n filter, black grille, clear corners (waiting on them), de-badge trunk except emblem, clear spoiler lights.

black roof and wheels are next on the list of mods.

Coupe looks good, but the sedan looks better

I think you should lower it before you get wheels. But after some research about wheels I plan to buy it seems the best/most commonly used is an 8.5 inch wheel up front with a 30-35mm offset, 9.5 inch wheel out back with a 40 offset.

Wheel choice is all up to you

But what kind of wheels do you like and what is your budget?

i really like the varrstoens (yes i know they are reps) that i have on my coupe so i was thinking of getting another set for my sedan maybe hyper black or powdercoat white. I also like a few vossen wheels (i know that they are not liked to much on this website) but the vossen cv2 and cv3 are appealing to me. 2k would be my budget i could go more but i think spending anymore and then curbing them or any kind of damage would drive me nuts lol

I looked into varrstoens but I think i'm going to go with something else. I really really want the cv2's. I wanted to go with those so bad but I don't want 20's on the sedan and I really can't swing that right now unfortunately.

If you can get the cv2's I vote those because i like them and I want to see them on a first gen sedan

There are some pretty decent replicas of those wheels too if you don't care about having a rep wheel. That's what I'm going to end up with (college kid), can't really justify the cost of what I really want.

Agree with you on keeping them relatively cheap as well in case of any damage! I don't need to ruin an 800 dollar wheel.
