G35C w/ Privat Fahren's & more

Here is a pic of my coupe w/ new Privat Fahren wheels. I used to have same wheels but w/ 40mm offset. But now I went with:
18 X 8(f) 20mm offset 245/40 Nitto 555
18 X 9(r) 25mm offset 275/35 Nitto 555

The lower offset really fills out the wheel wells MUCH better than the 40mm offset wheels I used to have. My signature pic has the 40mm offset wheels with 7mm spacers.

I think the G has bigger wheel wells than the Z, because the same 40mm wheels look fine on the Z, but don't fill out the G's wheel wells as much.

Also just installed is a Texas DAR rear spoiler; and I have put a 3ed coat of Crystal Guard on. The shine is much better in person. You could read a fine print book in the reflection.

Whoops, pics are below................

Looks great! Of course, if you has asked me (which you didn't[img]/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/img]) I would have said go with 19's with the same aspect ratio and offset you used with your 18's, but it still looks fantastic! Congrats!

I think the spoiler makes the car's azz look much better.

WOW!!! those offsets make the wheels look amazing, I always tell people to get low offsets, this is amazing, the car looks great.

where did you get the wheels again?
I know Discount Tires sells them, but they weren't very helpfull on the offsets, can they special order the offsets that I want or did you get these wheels from some other place?

Didn't go w/ 19's because they were only available in 8" width. That would not be good enough for the rear!!!

I got them from a local dealer who got them from Discount Tire. I think my dealer dealt with Todd. Said he was VERY helpful and knowlegeable.
Plus, I wore my local dealer out on asking questions. They too were helpful and took about every measurement they could so I would end up with the look I wanted. My dealer first recommended the 20 & 25mm offset, but I was kinda unsure, so I decided to play it safe and got 40mm offset based on what I've read on various forums. Well I was wrong. The wheels with 20 & 25mm offset on the G looks 300% better IMHO.
