Unless someone has a set in stock you may not be able to get 19" G2s with a lip any longer.

Man...why on gods earth would they even do that....

Sorry the pictures aren't very good. They were taken last night in my garage.

How do you like the Kooks? Deciding on which tires to throw on my new wheels...

19' G2's are win, my buddy with a GTR was looking at the 20's & we both came to the conclusion that the stock GTR rims look better!

I know. I agree with you. I much prefer the look of the 19s to the 20s.

It's similar to the Nismo LMGT4s. I have the 18s on my 350Z. The 18s are much more concave on the rear while the 19s are almost flat. I much prefer the look of the 18s.

They are the Hankook Ventus Evo 12 tires. I haven't got them on the car yet so I can't say first hand yet how they are. However, the reason I chose them is because they have been highly rated by both consumers and by Car and Driver and because they are fairly expensive in comparison to most other performance tires on the market. They finished second in the most recent C&D summer tire comparison, even outperforming the benchmark (and more expensive) Michelin Pilot PS2s.

20" TE's dont look bad on the 350...20" G2s certainly wont look bad either.

Personally I think 20" wheels look too big on a 350Z. 19" wheels look just about perfect with the right drop.

Took my G2s off the 370Z and put them on the 350Z last night to see what they look like. I really like it. I'll try to post some pictures tonight.

Thanks. I really like the G2s too.

BTW my car has the Nismo suspension so it does have a drop. With those wheels and my 30 series tires I wouldn't want it to be any lower.
