stock rims in 10.5

I have owned a g35 since march of 06 and have yet to find any wheels that i like better than the OEM 19" wheels. In my opinion they are gorgeous, classy and sporty altogether.

What I'd love is to find them in a 10.5 for the rear though...any such luck?

These on the other hand, I'm all over these, just don't have the 8-9K to drop on wheels and tires for 'em.

The most gorgeous wheels ever made, in my estimation.

You can always get your stock wheel widened. I know both Supra and IS300 guys go it to keep a stealthy look.

Also, you may want to look into Piaa wheels. They have a model that looks similar to stock 19's. I believe they are the Super Rozzas

Can you explain about this getting the stock wheels widened? I've not heard of this before.

They cut the barrell and widen it that way. There is atleast one member here on the board that had it done to his stock 17's I believe.

So... they widen on the inside, that does not fix the tucked in look the OEM 19's have, so a spacer will still be needed correct? I have a 20mm spacer on mine and they look nice. I was hoping no spacer would be needed if widened... I would love the look of 25mm spacers and a 10.5" wide rear!

Yes spacers would still be needed, there is no way to widen the outer portion of the wheel
