G35 with AC Schnitzer Type IV wheels!

Folks, I'm looking to buy some AC Schnitzer type IV wheels for my Black on Black Brembo 2003 G35. AC only makes these sizes in this style:
Front: 8,J x19" offset 36 tires: 235/35 R19
Rear: 8,J x 19" offset 36/43 tires: 235/35 R19

Can I even put these on my G? If so Will they look retarded and will i need spacers for the back so the tire is even with the wheel well.......performance issues???

Check out the attachment i made the rims look sweet!!

They wont fit. I contacted CEC about ordering a set of the Type V in 20x9 and 20x10 and was told all AC wheels are 5x120 and the dont sell blanks so you cant get them drilled. Suck too because I wanted thoes so bad.

Yea, the Deutschland doesn't like their shoes on Japanese cars...

It's kind of a general contempt for anything that's not European or German, especially Japanese.

Hahah, BBS comes to mind, but on the other hand Volk only makes one or two type of wheels in German fitment so I think in the end the Japanese are not so German-friendly either...


...unless we're talking WORKS

Yea, but I also was alluding to more than just wheels.....

On the Bimmer boards there's definitely an arrogance they have towards Japanese cars...

But I guess a lot of us do that here towards German cars....

However, I still think there's more of an arrogance on the BMW side.

What do you thin fin?

I used to hang out with BMWs with the G and never heard a single German elitism comment, the guys actually complimented me on the car, the color, exhaust note, whatever. But I've noticed on the forums a lot more arrogance comes from regular 3 series owners than from the M3 guys. I've read a lot of "no thanks, I'd rather have my 325 than a G35"

On the other hand, everyone here is so convinced that German cars are overpriced unreliable POS yet whenever there's a "what's your next car" thread most say M3. Go figure.

I think when people say they are over priced... they mean the 3 series? .. since many of the people here have considered a 330ci while purchasing the G... and it wasnt much they were getting for what they would pay... I, myself think that 3 series are over-priced and not really worth it for what you get... but i love the M3.. infact i almost got a Laguna Seca M3 before i got my G..
