Anyone know what type of rims these are and whether or not they will fit a g35 coupe?

The only thing I know is they are 18", 5 lug.

They almost look like Axis Pentas, but I'm pretty sure that's not them.

Good point. Pentas do have huge lips. I guess I was focusing too much on the face of the wheel.

I don't have closer pics. I actually found these on craigslist and the seller doesn't remember what brand they are or anything (it's off his 87 rx7).

I'm interested for two reasons. I just bought my car and the stock rims are in horrible condition.

Second, I need new tires. He's selling this for $700 and the tires have 2000 miles on them.

For that price, the rims are practically free, and compared to the crap on craigslists (20" chrome rims left and right), these look decent.

Based on the price, I doubt they're great rims, but I'm really just trying to figure out if they fit. I don't think the cap will help otherwise he would've just told me the brand.

lug pattern and offest should be stamped on the inside of the wheel. knowing the brand/model wont neccesarily tell you what the lug pattern is. the wheel could come in multiple patterns. id see if he can check the inside for a pattern stamping
