I want these wheels...does anyone else?

I need your help folks. Ever since I bought my G35 coupe I have always wanted gold wheels with a polished lip. The problem is I refuse to pay the price that companies like BBS want per rim. Wheeldude.com sells a wheel line called Linea Corse. I assume most of you haven't heard of them since there's close to no information about them on G35driver. The wheel is called the Lemans. They're around $1,000 for a set of four, and they only require a $200 deposit upon placing the order. The only problem is they don't offer them in this size/color/bolt pattern unless 3 or more people are interested.

So basically, if any of you would be interested in order a set of these, it would greatly help me out. The wheels are great quality, and I've done business with wheeldude before...they're good guys. Here's a link to the wheel:

Nevermind the bolt pattern as it says 5x120...they are made in our bolt pattern, it just would take a month or two to get them.

Here's a few pictures of the Lemans wheel:

Mesh wheels always have been and always will be a euro thing.... And a euro is exactly what mesh wheels belong on! like the black beamer there.....

although some guys can pull of 20 inch VSXX's depending on offset from what I've seen on the forum

Those look like Luff M1s.

Mesh can look good if done correctly.

I agree that mesh is usually seen on euro cars, but are you honestly telling me in this day and age that taking something from european cars and using on a G35 is a crazy idea? Come on man...either way, I love them. I think they look great.

The Linea Corse Lemans are actually already available for the 350Z/G35 Coupe. That's exactly how the G35 and 350Z you posted in your original post are running these wheels hehe You can view more info in the following thread

Let's not have this conversation again. I've had several cars with Rota wheels and have saved over $5,000 over 4 years JUST in wheels. I have never had a problem, and neither have most people.

To each his own...we have to respect that.

Who is you?

I've had almost 30 setups on my G in the past 4yrs. By not spending a dime on knockoffs with suspect quality, I've saved over $25,000!
