Oh ok. Well that thing is gorgeous!

 

What color should I paint the calipers? Black? Silver? (and not just rattle canned. I would have them prepped, tape of the brembo name, sprayed, cleared, and then redo the brembo lettering.

 

I say color match with the car and black lettering.

 

nah, from the looks of your wheels, you'll need at least 20mm anyways. With the 20mm or larger, they usually come with build-in studs like these..., I've heard ebay generic spacers works just as well, just make sure it states strong and high quality.

ebay...ebay spacers or the brand names...

 

 

^this guy...lol, it's not THAT bad, to the OP, get them spacers and you'll be set.

 

Thats harsh... lol

 

Silver car with cheap gold rims, sunken in wheel wheels, and orange calipers.

That picture may not have completely captured my disgust, but it is a start.

 

rims were not cheap.. they were about $1800... and the calipers... are factory brembo... soooo... it wasnt like i went out there and painted those puppies up that way.

 

1- You overpaid
2- 1800 is still cheap for rims
3- Even though they are factory, they still dont match.

 

ehh.. oh well. I like it. I have only had it a few weeks, so I will make some changes to it, like changing the color of the calipers, and putting wheel spacers on it.

 

The car may be the same but the wheels are the exact opposite he has high end wheels and correct offsets.....

 

So you think that because the little center cap in the middle that says "X" brand makes a world of a difference. Its funny.. .if you compare my wheels and his (not that his wheels are not nice), they have pretty much the same finishes. The same color finish on the face, and the same finish on the lip.. So besides the offset perhaps being different, which is a simple as me buying the adapters, I couldn't imagine the center cap making all the difference in the world. Plus your way of thinking didnt even answer my question. You just decided you wanted to jump on the train here and bash on the wheels. I was referring to the "smooth"ness as in the car's lines. Its lowered just right, it sits just right, the offset of the wheels sit right, no front lip, no splash guards, no rear wing. It just flows very well.

I feel like im in high school again watching all the kids pick on the kid that doesnt have designer clothes.. its rediculous. I have owned 60 cars in the past 9 years, I buy,sell, trade cars, trucks, bikes, four wheelers, and boats as a hobby, and i dont think I have ever seen anyone make such a fuss over "cheap" wheels. By the way, to the guy that said I paid too much... I didnt pay that. Thats what the receipt total came to in the end, but I gave $700 for them) This is my first G35 and Im sorry that I do not find the necessity to spend $3000 on a set of measly 18" perhaps 19" wheels because it says a certain name brand on it and I am disappointed to find that such negativity and un-constructive criticism can be directed towards someone over the brand of wheel he owns, especially from this website. If this was a forum with a bunch of ricers pissing back and forth about who has the fastest 14 second car I would expect this kinda talk.... its almost like you guys (not all of you) feel like your wheels is what seperates the "real men" from the boys and gains your reputation among the G35 drivers.. so disappointing.

 

Your wheels look more like a matted bronze/gold compared to the gold works..imo

 

He has much nicer wheels in MY opinion he has correct fitting wheels, and his car is lower. I never directly said you wheels suck or didnt look good, I stated they are the opposite of your wheels....high end and correct fitment (I stand by that statement) I am not sure how you can say i am wrong.

I guess when you said how bout some feed back you meant you only wanted feed back from guys that though you hit it out of the park sorry I dont care for your wheels. Its my opinion you asked for it you got it Dont post your pictures ask for feed back then get mad when it is not what you wanted to hear

I guess if you mod your car for the members on G35 driver you will be disappointed, if you like great it is not my taste but everyone starts somewhere!!
