I have a 2005 G35 Coupe with 18" wheels. I have always had a vibration in the front and everyone I have taken it to says it is a "bent rim". I have been wanting to replace that rim, but I get a big confused when looking for a used one on ebay.

1) It seems that some of them are "re-manufactured" so I assume that means re-painted. They usually list the color as Hyper Silver or Hyper Gray. However the factory specs listed the 17" wheels in 2005 as "Silver finish" and the 18" wheels as "Titanium finish" So I feel like my chances of getting a match are not too good, even if I buy off an individual.

2) I notice that they always specify "front" or "rear" and one guy has a picture of the wheel is marked from the factory as a "rear". But I thought that the front and rear were the same size (18x8 +30mm offset). Can a wheel stamped "rear" be used on the front?

Thanks.

 

You have many options, my best advice is to visit a Infiniti/Nissan wrecking yard in your area. They'll have what you need, if not they can order the wheel you want.
