....only 19k miles on my 2004, but finally took off all the JP stuff and did something a little more conservative for a fresh look.

I got the inspiration from a Q45 in a VIP magazine first, then the 3rd gen GS.

Sorry for the crappy mobile phone pics, but I just washed her after the Philly Auto show, so that's all I had on hand.

These are stock R35 GT-R wheels from a 2009 GT-R premium, so they are the dark gunmetal. Fronts needed spacers up front due to the high offset, but the rears are on point.

Thanks....it's a full set front and rears from a GT-R.

20x9.5 +45 front and 20x10.5 +25 rear.

I had to put a 25mm spacer up front due to the high offset, but it pushed the wheel flush, which is what I wanted.

nice ride, those rims look good on your M. Did you keep the OEM GTR tires on, or did you swap them out?

wheels looks awesome...great stance.

Interested to know whether the larger GT-R tires fit underneath the fenders also.

Any pics of new(ish) M's with these on?

If I can find for good deal, think I found what wheels I'll be upgrading to in the future...

the rims should fit on an 06+ M but the tire diameter isnt good with the oem's. The fronts come with 255/40/20 rears 285/35/20 and both of them are over 3% increase in diameter, some people dont care about that kinda stuff but i dont like riskn it with my car. I was gonna try to buy these rims from someone local but they want a lot for the set (tires/rims/tpms) too much for me to pay for stock rims.

this is just my opinion, but if you have to buy a body kit for a car to make it look better....DONT BUY THE CAR!

some of the best Y34s with no body kits: http://www.cardomain.com/MakeM.../2003/

The Y34 is famous for the way it looks as is. The square lines are what make the car. Body kits make it look cheap and over done. I do like the color of those rims

Hahaha....then you would have hated my car before I put the lip kit on. It has one of those cheap plastic/fiberglass kits that cost $4k.....

If you want to keep your car stock, that's up to you....it's your car, so do what pleases you.

Damn....I didn't know AutoZone sells original SL vents and ML hood vents. I wasted all that money at the Mercedes dealership.....

Thanks for the feedback.....I still like how it came out.....

$4000.00 isn't cheap,but I was talking about the cheap look of body kits. I do like the color of the rims

The kit is a cheap plastic kit made by Works Company in Japan. The wing is a cheap plastic wing from Junction Produce.

I use to have a full Junction Produce demo car....Petrol head now has most of the kit.

The tails are factory Nissan LED tails only sold in Japan on the Y34's.
