Default Got some new wheels (g35)

Well i was tired of the black on black look, and my old wheels were fading. So i sold them and got myself a set of used work VS-XX wheels. Just to try something new. Personally i love it.

They are 19 inch Work Vs-XX with toyo tires. 9.5, 10.5 Offsets are +28 Front and +29 Rear.

What do you think? (This was just a quick shot)




Soon to come mods include: Coilovers, painted headlights, new bumper, HKS exhaust, BBK

Love the look.. Good work homie. I personally wouldve gone in the lower 20's for the offset but it looks sweet.

Looks good but one of the trade offs for expensive wheels are strong offsets which you didnt get...why?

Well, i got them used, so i didnt really have much of a choice. I got a great deal from a member on this site and i had to take it. The tires on my spair set were bald and one had a nail in it so i decided to just go with these, rather than wait months and pay more money. Personally i like the offsets, they look pretty good for now, we will see when i lower it.

I got the set with the toyo tires at 90% for 2350 shipped.

the wheels are money homie, black and white cars always look so good with gold wheels

but you're gonna get crap from some guys here for the 4x4 stance and weak offsets, but not everyone can slam their car and poke out their wheels right ? because some people have to daily drive their cars in pothole filled cities and don't wanna stress every time they're parallel parking..

so don't listen to such comments you need to do whatever suits your needs, car looks perfectly good to me

Thank you! Some of my friends think it looks Mexican, but i beg to differ... none of them know what work or volk wheels are so they cant appreciate it like i can.

(no offense to any Mexicans on this site)

Thanks for the feedback. It means alot to me.

Well like i said before, i bought these wheels used and i got a good deal on them. So i didnt really want to pay like 2000 more for new wheels with aggressive offsets. because these actually are pretty good, believe it or not they sit pretty flush with the fender. This is my DD so i didnt really want to get tooo crazy. but a drop is in the future near future as soon as i get a good deal on coils

I think they look good. I think they would look even better with some 15mm spacers and a drop, or higher sidewall tires at least.

When you drop it is when you'll notice the offsets.
