Default g35 rims on Z

Anyone have any pictures of the Z with 18" g35 coupe rims?

I agree dr. they seem to boxy from the side for the curvy lines of the Z. just doesnt go IMO.

it's because the profile shot (side shot) looks like the Skyline rims... that's why it looks good

I agree.. the side looks awesome... the angle shot makes them less desirable. I was thinkin bout that setup for a lil bit. Too bad the rims don't just go straight up and down, instead of curving in... oh well...

Still looks nice though...

Not bad. the 17" z wheels have a similar curviness to them.

I've always liked the G35 rims but they are more stylistic than the Rays and I can't imagine they are as light as the Rays or most aftermarket rims. Does anyone know who they stack up on weight ?

I picked those up for $200 each. So they can be had pretty cheap. I'll probably step up to a set of HRE or Volks next year.

Well...the G35c is a Skyline...

They look to much like enthusiast wheels from the second pic, but still look good. They look great from the side.

That price is a little low. I knew someone who bought a G. I picked them up from him. But i've seen them sell on e-bay for $1000.00 per set.

Say what you want but I think they look better than all the Z wheels IMHO.

Do you know if the Infiniti center cap can be replaced with the Nissan cap on the G35 18"s. Thanks
