need wheel ideas....

I just bought a 05 g35 coupe thats black on black. It has the oem rays on it now but i want a staggered wheel set up. Will someone please direct me in the way of a good place to search for staggered wheels that are not TOOOO expensive.

(i would like the wheels to be black too with probably a polished lip.)

Please post pics of yours if you have staggered wheels!


Thanks

Deals on wheels....right here on Driver! =0)

Your G35 is OB not just black and your interior is charcoal, and that's not black either.... You can find some great deals on wheels/tires on MARKETPLACE but stick with the 19". Should be able to get Volks or Works with decent tires for $2K to $2500 shipped....is that in your price range? Good Luck, the day you install your new tire/wheels is like Christmas and your Birthday all thrown into one day....major fun!

Would someone please explain what the spacers are? Is that to make the wheel stick out more?

oh you can always research into wheel offsets and choose the correct ones that will make the wheel flush so u don't need to buy spacers


why would you buy new wheels and put spacers on? imo you get more out of learning about offsets, saving money and choosing a wheel company that lets you choose your own offsets

Look into the tenzo 19" wheels, they're affordable, staggered and come in decent fitments for the G..hella OEM has the Tenzo Type M which reminds me, the charcol grey he has looks stellar on a black coupe.

WRONG! Spacers = $150-200 max?+$2500 = $2700-$2800. Custom set of wheels without tires = $3200+. You know it better than anyone else

well maybe its just me that i got custom offsets for my wheels for 2800

plus places are not suppose to charge extra for different offsets, thats just stupid, they make money yes, but they would ultimately loose out to better brands

but yah imo a wheel company that doesnt let you choose your offsets (from a specific range of course) is not a wheel company i would go with

however we'll throw in adding spacers if they need clearance but that is the only time its kool, imo
