i actually know the kid selling them, and seen these wheels in person. i think the gunmetal version of the nismos would look better with a dark slate, but there's a bunch of people that have these on the forum. try searching for it...

They will look very good and you shouldn't have any rubbing issues (I run 19X9.5. +35). Just make sure you get an alignment .

I have the same rims in gunmetal with eibach pro-kit drop. you will have no rubbing issues at all. I Love the rims and would recommend them. Can't beat forged rims.

those wheels come with black rays lug nuts and black valves and caps that complete the look. You should see if he will sell the lugs with them. I don't see why the stock lugs wouldnt fit but I haven't tried it personally. I change the lug nuts along with the rims for the winter. The gunmetal wheels are hanging out in the garage right now.

I unfortunately bought these wheel before they were discontinued so I paid $1200 for the wheels alone. Tires for these 19's would run you around $1000 because 19 inch tires are more expensive then 20 inch tires. Probably because the demand for 20's is higher. Thats the one thing I was told by my buddy who has a G with the 19 inch rays wheels.

I searched forever to find them in gunmetal and had to order them from a dealership in washington just to get the gunmetal. So I wouldn't trade them for anything lol. Unless you have some GT-R wheels

The wheel determines the lug nut size and type...

For instance, a spline lug is used in close quarters, then theres varying differences on angle pitches on lugs, then theres acorn lugs... Some discussion in the wheels section, but its more of what the wheel requires...
