Smile New Wheels and Tires

Hey Whats going on everyone? Brand new member here looking for some help. I drive a 2008 G35xs Blue slate. Im in the market for some new wheels and tires with a budget of around 2000 maybe a little bit more. I wanna go 19's and am just looking for some good wheels. I always find the same wheels online, TSW, Konigs, blah blah. Any help would be appreciated with brands, pictures, websites you have had good luck with. Thanks!

You might not like the idea but i got some cheap works for like 2400 shipped. They had good tires and all. I used to not like the idea of buying used wheels, but i gave in because i didnt like the 3-4k pricetag after tires ha. If i was you i would be looking at iForged. They have some sick wheels.

So we have a budget and a diameter...beyond that what are you looking for in terms of style and fit (lipped and dished, concave)? Do you want an easy fit or do you want push the limits a little (width and offset range)? Do you want to stay square front to back or go staggered?

Forgestar's F14 comes in a variety of colors and sizes at a pretty affordable price. I just received my second set, ordered and to my door in a month. i want to say there was a second gen G35 sedan that just put them on, so search on to see if that is a style you want or not.

Going used like phantom suggested is also a good bargain and finding something local is always nice.

nothing against Neal and his crew, but thier available wheel selection through their wheel finder is very conservative when it comes to widths and offset. You will most likely be tucking if you go with one of their suggested packages. Still worth a look, but you've been warned!
