Wider wheels with a stock look

Hi all. I really like sleeper / stealth style, and I'd love to find some wider wheels that look as much like my stock 19" Rays as possible.
If I could just widen the Rays, I would, but I assume there no way to do that to a forged wheel.

Any suggestions, links, pics are appreciated.

For the record, it's a 2005 coupe, so these are my stockers:

Search around, people have widened the oem 19's, but you'll probably need a backup setup of wheels or a different car to drive while they are getting shipped out and done.

That is awesome. I assumed that forged wheels couldn't be widened. If the offset works, I could swap the rears onto the front, then widen another set of rears for the back. I'll look into that.

Thanks!!

Great! Just checked out their site and there are pics of the same G35 wheels that they have widened. I stand corrected. Sometimes, it's good to be wrong...

Very nice. What are those wheels? They look extra sexy with the DG paint and the Brembo's peeking through.

Did you have them painted / coated? Yours look darker than silver. Matches your paint so well.

What size wheels & tires are you running?

Thanks again for the info.

Saw those in person. My buddy just put those exact wheels in that color on his red 370z sport. They are gorgeous!
