To absgtr, has your car been lowered? If those are 19s, and your car isn't lowered, I'd say it looks sweet.

Those are 20". I almost had a heart attack when I saw his car. I love black coupes on black rims, but this is something totally new to me, I wanna know what these wheels are too.

It's nice but I don't agree it being the "best" combo. I prefer gunmetal on a black car.

Wow those are the best looking wheels I have seen on a G yet. Any idea on how much each one weighs also is your ride lowered? Finally, how much did they cost if you don't mind me asking?

To fess up my coupe is ivory white... but I appreciate tastefully done wheel pkgs on any G. So far, I'd have to say my favorite combo posted are 19" Volk LE37s in gun metal on dk grey metallic. One of the members has a pic posted in the pic sticky. My second favs are 18 or 19 BBS RGRs on either black or grey metallic.

Surprisingly, I didn't see anyone post white wheels on an ivory g35 yet in the ivory pic sticky. I just joined yesterday so I'll need to keep digging.

Personally, I'm dying to see what white 19" Volk LE37s 9F/10R or white 18" SSR Comps look like on an ivory white coupe.

Something like that huh?



I agree it looks beautiful, but it depends on the rims. For example black iForged Aeros on a black G are the sexiest sight there is

PM XG35DriverX, he's got iForged Victories that match his Ivory Pearl. I haven't seen pics of it, but I'm curious to see how that looks too.

Thanks pete and finiti, they're diamond black SF winnings, I think just for the wheels they're around $2300, I got mine packaged with the tires so I forget what the actual price was for wheels alone.

The drop is on Eibach springs, I did have to roll the fenders but I really like the aggressive look so I didn't mind.

The weight isn't too far off from stock, I ran a 13.9 with these wheels whereas I could only get mid 14's with the stock tires, I think that had more to do with the width of the tires though. Point being that I didn't sacrifice performance.

Do NOT tell me you ran a 13.9 with 10.5" wheels in the back! That's wayyyy awesome. What tires are you running to get such great traction?

Damn I like this thread..lol didnt realize how good black on black is. Is it just me or does diamond black look more like a dark gunmetal than actual black?

lol yeah I ran a 13.9.. it literally took all damn day but I finally did it on my last run. I have 285/35-19 rear BF Goodrich KDW II's, lots of grip
