uhhh those are upgraded rims to 18s, I personally prefer the Z's 18s. but the 17s are not as nice on the G35 IMO. tho actually, on the Z, when you get that package(brembos) you get the rays.

I do like those rims. You'd have to find someone that's selling them off their new G35 to get a good price. The dealership will rape you for them(not literally)

I know those are 18's, I was refering to the design comparing both 7 spoke wheels. The ones on the Z look to big, while these looks slick, and they are 18's. I'd rather have the track rays, then the performance ones.

I like the Z's 17's, but the G's 18's are much better looking. They look almost exactly like I hoped to find for the Z back in February.

Does anyone know the respective weights?

I think that the thinner 7 spokes look a lot better too. Here's those rims on a Z

Here's the Breyton Vision. Its a BMW wheel only but it looks hot and has some semi-dish to it. I wonder how difficult it is to get these rims to work on a non BMW.

I've always preferred 6-spoke wheels on sports cars. 7-spokes and up are more for luxury cars IMO.

they are much nicer, but Im just saying compare apples to apples. they reserve the "nicer" designs for the 18" wheels to give an incentive to buy them, if the 17s looked better, then why would you want the 18s?

Nice tires too. They look like a lower profile tire. Are they the stock tires or after markets? I believe the G35 comes with Michelin Pilot Sports, but those look different. Anybody know what those are?

Honestly, I think the Infiniti 18 looks better than the Zs 17 stand alone, but when mounted (as in the pic), I think the Zs 17s fit the "Z look" better than the Infiniti wheels. Just my opinion....

The G35 wheels are definitely sweet. The Z is so round that when combined with the 17s or non-Rays 18s I think they make the car look a little to bubbly. The 18" Rays look great with their sharper edges as do the G35 wheels. I think the contrast nicely with the Zs round panels and bring out the sharper lines. Keeps the car from looking too much like a TT or similar.

I like the looks on the G35 rims, I unlike a few don't have any regrets getting the Z over he G35C, but I am a bit pist that the G35C comes /w the Pilots.

Oh well,

lets find a G35C board and troll around and convince them they need to trade wheels with us,

All I know is it's the time to toke. Everyone who tokes, tokes on 4:20, or at least try to.
