That's a good look! More like a wheel you will see on an AMG CLS not so much a Mopar. Looks like they added horsepower LOL.

Thats actually the car that I had in my head when picturing how it would look with my drop...:dblthumb: I also see this style on their E series (the sport package). I think it looks really good! :mike

SWEEEEEET!!!!

What was the wheel offsets? I just returned my wheels and going with 20" on my 07 M35 and owner had hard time gotting staggered for my car where wheels wouldnt stick out. I needed a 45-50 offset and versanti vossen etc all where 35 so I went with Lexani 20-9 all around so I do not have to stagger rotate tires etc and they cut rim to +40 offset

On both of my 22" sets I got +38 offset on 22"x8.5".... So what size tires did you go with??

-Window visors I got from amazon.com search infiniti m45 window visors or ventshades.... El Perron, a member on here game me the info. They are a deal for 6pc $117 and free shipping! :bigthumb:[/quote]


I got the same window visors but the 6th and last piece does not match the size of chrome strip. Is that how its supposed to be? I installed all 4 pieces that go over the doors but not the ones tht go over the little window. Is that how its supposed to be? Couldnt Pm you since im newly registered. But since u installed them perhaps u can shed some light :)

The chrome strip is the same size on all 6pcs for mine! :gotme
As far as being the same size as the chrome piece on the car itself already?? Not so, for all of them. The chrome on the car is a lil wider but is less noticeable on the doors because they get completely covered up by the visors.... Not really a big deal IMO... I've seen the actual JDM visors and they only do the doors so you're good either way!!

Yea I see what you mean. I will probably just keep the ones on the door. Not to be a pain in the a** but if you have a clear and close up picture of the visors please post. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the pics! I installed my visors and the lip spoiler this weekend. I just added some 3m tape where i thought it was necessary. I also began the interior LED conversion. Finished all four doors and the trunk. Car looks great now.Next is the roof spoiler :biggrin: and changing the exterior lights .... I've seen that you posted previously about the roof spoiler, you got any good sellers in mind?

I just ordered my roof spoiler about a week ago. I used "bc.moto" off ebay. I made another thread asking for help on that issue and many have bought from ebay just didn't specify which seller... They take a while to arrive since they come mostly from Taiwan but haven't heard of anyone getting screwed or anything like that. I will post pics of mine when I get it installed!!

I like the ride, I also live in Katy and I'm currently going back and forth between 22's and 20's trying to figure out which way to go. Would love to hook up and checkout the ride in person. I'm new to the forum and for some reason can't PM, hit me up if we can meet up somewhere.

Since you are new you are restricted to PM's but you'll be able to pretty soon... Just keep posting up and you should get clearance...Where are you shopping for wheels?? I would honestly recommend both but your tire selection is key, especially on the 22"!! Staggered on 20" are your best bet(more rubber) although some have gone 20"x9.5" all four corners for tire wear and rotation purposes...I'm in Katy north off Fry rd. But work on the SW side...I haven't had the chance to get on here a much as I use to but I check it from time to time....my schedule is crazy most of the time but we can hook up to compare rides and see if I can help with anything! :bigthumb:

Looks real nice! With that offset I'm guessing the back wheel sticks outside the fendor a few MM? Any rubbing issues so far? My 22's will be test fit tomorrow and I'm contenplating swapping the 9" in the back for 10.5 with 42mm offset. Concern is the look of going past the fendor and rubbing.

I don't see any part of my wheels sticking out one bit in the rear!! Actually think they are Hella flush!! As far as rubbing?? Not one bit!! Remember these are 20"!! You're going 22" so be careful!!

Car looks nice! I was just about to say you need to paint those calipers or something because they pop out. Good thing you're gona get the BBK, 10x better look IMO. Are you going to have them painted a certain color or leave em grey?

Not sure on painting the BBK. They look real sick in the red or yellow considering they are the real deal (bbk), but that's not for a short while... Tell me what you think Mexillis, considering painting my current calipers red or black since they really do pop out now?? :gotme

Wanted to do black and change out lug nuts to black but not sure now... Red looks fake with these standard brakes IMO... Help me out I plan on painting them this weekend!!

I would leave the BBK silver...i think it would compliment your car...


as for your current calipers, if you want them to stick out, maybe yellow..or black...just my opinion lol
