Default ADR M - Sport Wheels

I have a chance to pick up a set of ADR-M Sport wheels for a 350Z Performance. The specs are 18x18.5, 5x112/5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 35mm offset. My questions are: 1) Will the tire pressure sensors still work and are there any adapters necessary? 2) Will my stock tires mount right on these wheels? They come with a 2" lip, is it two piece and if so is there a problem with them coming off (not ripped off)? What about the 35mm offset? If anyone has these wheels (they have a titantum-silver finish), what do you think of them? Regrets? How 'bout a $725.00 price for four boxed? Please address all these questions if you will. It would be a big help. Thanks a bunch,
Steve sloday@swbell.net

I've got a set. The fronts are 18x8.5 35 mm and the rears are 18x9.5 35mm. It is a one piece wheel that looks like a multi piece because of fake bolts around the rim.

Don't know about the TPS 'cuz I don't have 'em (03 G35C).

If you're going to run 8.5 all around, the stock tires should look fine on them. You might find the fronts look a little stretched though. I'm running 245's on the front and 275's on the rear.

I'm happy with them, no regrets except they would look pretty good in 19" (decided against it because of weight/performance issues and scared like hell of bending them on a pothole).

FYI... The stock wheels/tires weigh 50lbs front and 53lbs rear. The M-Sports with Toyo T1-S tires weigh 49lbs front and 58lbs rear.

$725 sounds like an alright deal if they are brand new. But are you sure you want to go 8.5 all around?

TPS works perfectly with these wheels. No modifications needed. Be careful when taking your wheels off. The monitors can snap really easy.

Steve you found these on ebay right? I found the same wheels for that price. The only thing is that they are 8.5 all around. Guys is the main thing going to be the lip not as deep as it should be in the rear. For $190 they can do 9.5 in the rear not sure if its worht it. Any inputs?
