Decided to go ahead and try these on, not sure if I want to keep them yet. I might paint them black and see how that looks. Any way here are some pics.

definitely keep. I'm looking for new wheels and these look just amazing. I would keep them without paint or do them bronze.

They look great and so do the wheels - very unique look for an M.

I think with my theme black wouldn't be so bad, when I had g37s wheels black it looked good IMO. Maybe a gunmetal would be worth a shot.

No pics outside this was a quick test fit and I had to go to work. I was surprised that I could tuck the rears with a 275. The wheels are 19x10+30 and do stick out but not bad enough for body work. The front I had a 20mm spacer and it could use up to a 30mm to be flush.

My main reson to get these was to have some light weight forged wheels for a price that would cost an arm and a leg. I plan on getting something new in 20" or 21" but haven't figured out what route to go yet. Thanks for the input so far still wondering if I should sell these...

YES!!! Please, no black wheels! IMO that's the worst thing you can do to nice looking wheels is paint them either gloss or flat black.

A few pics when the car is outside would make it easier to see how they look on the car, I personally really like my sport wheels, I have a hard time figuring out what other wheel design would look good.
I always wondered how these 370Z wheels would look on my 06 M45S now I kinda have an idea, thanks!

^ What color is your M? There are two other people with thsese wheels on a M, one red (radigan) and a white one (rm450gt) both member on here. I think it suits those cars better than mine so far.

I love they way they look. Makes the car look more aggressive. Even though I wouldn't doing it on mine but it would make my head turn. Keep them!

are they 18 or 19? I actually really like them... Always a fan of the non-retro retro-grade (if that makes sense.)

Love 350z wheels on a 240, for example.

Lol no stretch here, the fronts are 245/40/19 and rears are 275/35/19. Oem Bridgestone potenzas along with no tire shine on them. Must be the lighting that makes it look like that.

I love it... damn! Every time seriously. And I do not believe you on the tire dressing. Anyways... keep them that color, or if you want to change check out the mirror, or metallic colors here http://www.shop.allpowderpaints.com/Hig ... ors_c6.htm

The mirror black is f*** dope, and I was planning on doing something like that... On your color car, I think it would be stupid clean.

The specs are 19x9+47 and rears are 19x10+30 I did have a 20mm up front and it needs more to match the rear. Maybe a 30 mm would be flush but I will probly run a 25mm. Those paints look nice, once I find some lug nuts I will then get them mounted and take some more pics with the sun.

Wheels are for sale. Will come with new lug nuts and the tires mounted are needing replacement. I planned on mounting these but they are too small for me so I didnt get new tires. PM me if you are interested in purchasing these. Price is 1200 OBO.


here's some more examples of how they sit on an M.

Nice Mex. No paint though. They look good just like that. It's something different. Kinda like that white M with the FX wheels on it..... Can't help but think you've got an extra 370 lying around.

Did These ever rub in the rear? I have a square set of these with all being 19X10. Was trying to figure out if i should run stock fitment or go with a higher profile such as 40 or even 45 instead of the stock 35. I haven't dropped my car yet so the wheel gap is huge. Right now i have 265/30/19 and it looks really bad.

Never drove with these mounted. If you run a square set up I would run 245/40 all around for clearance. Maybe a 255/35 would also work if the load index will work.
