So the UPS man dropped off some presents today in the form of new wheels!!! They are 18x7.5 MB Interline +48 offset. I am waiting for Sam's Club to stop being stupid and get my tires in, but they will be wrapped in BFGoodrich g-force sport 235/40zr/18You cant see it from the pictures, but the wheels are gunmetal with a machined face. They remined me alot of the stock g35 wheels which I have always had my eyes on.Pictures of them with tires and on my car will soon follow!EDIT: Sam's club was stupid and ordered the all season tires and not the summer tires, so I will probably have to wait atleast another week. I think I may have to lock these in a closet so I dont keep looking at them.

They look good.

But 7.5 width with +48 offset? That's a few mm. more sunken than stock.

Ya they remind me of the Axis Elite's as well but without that black part in between the spokes.

...Were you so anxious to get them on you mounted them on your car without tires

looks good.

I cant believe that you tortured yourself by actually putting them on the car without tires though. I agree that you should lock them in the closet.

I had my wheels for almost 5 months before I put them on, I had to take them to my parents' house to stop staring at them.

I did it to make sure that the hubcentric ring fit snug. And it has resulted in torture.
