will these rims fit on my car? EBAY!

Hey guys,

i was curious if you can help me out here, as im having a hell of a time finding rims!

i own a 2004 G35 Coupe (with brembos) and want to know if these rims on ebay would fit my ride: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...EWA:PIC&ih=002

also, does anyone have any past experiences with buying rims off ebay??? and shipping to canada???

thanks

I can assure you they are probably not hubcentric. From the bolt pattern and offsets, it seems they should fit.

Not too crazy about ADR wheels though. $400 + shipping is probably $500 or so. Add another $1000 for tires/mounting/balancing and you are at $1500.

For another $500, you would be into an used set of quality wheels/tires like Volks.

Well the page says it will fit the g35. It already lists the g35 as a compatible car on the page so you should be fine. If it doesnt fit then you can just get a refund through paypal.

"Fits G35" means it will bolt on. Not necessarily hubcentric IMHO

If its not hubcentric, the center of the wheel will not fit snug onto the hub of the car = shaking/vibration while driving.

Not true, I don't run hubcentric rings and my wheels have no vibration, they are nice to have, but not a necessity
