The GT-30 looks amazing. Not the phantom lip thing though. I think Formula Silver would be so hot. Even though a few people have them on the forums, how many people around here have them, on any car? How many on a G37? Who cares if it seems "played out" on the Internet? I live in reality

I don't think anyone would take Jeff's bet, either.

As far as arguing lips vs. concave, that's pointless. It's like Dunks or Jordans. It's ok to like both.

Yours aren't bad, but I can tell you now that he doesn't want blue wheels, nor is he looking to spend $8500.

V, do you want 19's or 20's?

Would these 20"s fit? The matte black would be cool.

^^ I think they would stick out too far. The "typical" offsets are around +36/+37 for those widths which I think are a bit conservative, but G35C offsets are waaay too aggressive for G37S'

The Cobb Tuning G37S had this setup:

Front - 20x9.5, + 23mm offset
Rear - 20x10.5, + 28mm offset

Here's what it looked like with that setup:

I've always been a fan of Iforged/DPE, but those Progressiv MEs would look SICK on your car in silver. I love the concave.

I would pick up a set of these, but they don't come in 20s and I won't get 19s.

That Cobb Tuning G37 looks to have the perfect fitment. Doesn't poke out, but is pretty flush. Maybe you could go with that but just slightly more conservative, like +30 rear and +25 front...something along those lines, depending on what they carry? For new Volks, I'd shop Status, Gruppe-S, Andy @ Performance Nissan, and Forged Performance.
