Just bought these wheels cheap. Winter Tire Wheel

Hey Guys,
Just got these wheels cheap on eBay. Plan to use them on my 06 G35 Coupe 6Mt for winter (sorry this is my 3rd post on this topic recently but I never bought a setup like this before). Can anyone see why these wheels would not work for me? Thanks for your help guys!

errr... ummm.. other than the fact that he doesn't list any late model infiniti/nissans in his fitment table i think you should be ok.
did you contact him before you purchased? what did he say?
there are many threads discussing fitment issues for our cars wheels, take a quick look around you may find a definitive answer

You could have bought the ones off tirerack for 92 dollars a piece for 368 plus shipping. You paid about 102 for those. I think they are similar in looks too. Let us know how they fit and how long it takes to get them. I like them and am looking for a set myself.

Hey Guys,
Quick update. First, Tirerack is sold out of those 92 dollar wheels. I know because I ordered them 2 days ago with Blizzack LM-22s and got a phone call an hour later letting me know that they don't have the wheels and do not know when they will be in stock. The next cheapest 17" wheel was 278 dollars each... No thank you. Almost 3x the price
I then bid on the wheels seen here on eBay. I contacted the seller after and let him know I found out the offset is not quite right for a G35. He agreed and sent me a picture with different wheels that are 17x7 with a 38mm offset. Much better and the wheels look a little sharper to me! Now Ill be happy as soon as they come and the order is correct
I'll give a quick run down on how they fit and will post contact info for the guy if everything goes smoothly... I am not sure about what tire size to use for these... 215 45R17, 225 45R17? Not sure...
