and im giving my honest opinion, if they cant take it, then dont post their comments on my thread..
works both ways eh?
as far as camber its only -3 rear which is nothing, front is -2.4... actually get more when u slam it just from the uneven control arms... and i moved it back a lil.. camber is your friend, lifes too short to worry about tires.. if i wanted to worry about treadlife ida bought a minivan

But whatever, im no judge, i like em from a distance, but i think they look too wide from behind...Nice color though, love blue

its not about "i have the money in the bank to buy them" its about do you have enough money in the bank to buy them and not be like "omfg i just spend 9k on wheels".. like i said above... some will say, dont post pics if u dont want comments, dont be an asshat with rude comments and you wont get heckled.

This is a forum. If you are not ready to take criticism, then don't bother posting pictures.

as far as putting me to shame, you couldnt come close, regardless of what you have. but id like to see you try. did you buy the G35 2 months ago and before it even came had more money than its worth in mods waiting for it? dont think so. or we could talk assets and ill own you there as well. so bow down.

Just because they are expensive doesnt mean anything, thats where taste comes in. you could custom lift a lambo stick 24s on it that have diamonds in them, the failure comes when a stock one rolls up and looks better. The g isn't exactly the car to stand on your soap box and scream i got bills, sorry.

everyones taste is different and mine varies as well which is why i swap around wheels so much, as far as the fitment being "taste" i love my rear and camber doesnt affect wear as much as most think... toe affects wear.. if the front was 12mm more out id be more pleased but i love the setup. i went from Auto-Couture 22's the week i bought the car w/ brides... now im @ the Auto-Couture 20's which i wanted opposite the 22's.. no bling, next i have some euroline DH's coming with even bigger lips but safer fitment. and then after that i have some volks coming that not even one person on the forum has... will be a first for G and Z forum. so withing the first 4 months of owning ill have: 22's (bling), 20's (stealth), Eurolines (VIP), Volks (straight fuc.king gangster).. the volks will just be temps tho...waiting for another set of Auto-Coutures in a crazy different finish with more agressive fronts..
as far as the "soap box and scream i got bills" the G is simply a temp car for me until i get out of this hellhole they call orlando, once i move back to palm harbor for good ill be getting a white gallardo to go along w/ the house im having built.. at that time, ill stand on my soapbox and scream i got bills.

just curious...do you really pay MSRP for these wheels???
i know you can afford nice watches, but you obviously stated yourself you get a deep discount on them.
i'm just wondering if it's the same for wheels. it's cool to go through $9000 set of wheels every couple of weeks, but if you're paying pennies on the dollar, than it's no surprise you go through so many sets.
just curious if you would go through so many sets if you had to pay MSRP???

LOL @ this guy "rijowysock"
He sent me this PM:
Look at how defensive you are getting over some criticism that you obviously can't take. I bet you are going from one response to another trying to prove a point and back yourself up since no one likes your setup. You post pictures, we respond, and you get pissed.
And as for your so called "assets", I had a G35 Coupe, sold it, and purchased a car that you could never afford if your life depended on it, tough guy.
Please stop posting this non sense and move on. I posted my opinion and you are getting all defensive, just end it and move on to the next comment.
