After a very long process and a couple of tire guys who weren't trying to mess with the wheels here you are... Now I only hope that my attachments work

Thanks man... I wouldn't say the VIP look, because if you go on their site the first thing they would point out, it's not low enough and the wheels don't have enough lip. I'll just say my car is VIP inspired, lol

Well Wes, the sizes are 245/45/18 & 275/40/18. As far as them being Nitto 555's you would be incorrect. They're actually the new Falken FK452's

I have no idea why it's not showing up now, when I first posted they showed up . Okay what am I doing wrong when posting pics, I add them to nissaninfiniti.com and do the so I have no idea. Only I have looked at is on other people it shows data in the web address and mine says upload is there anything to that?

Your links are apparently not pointing to the right location. You need to change them by selecting the link from the "Properties" (right click on your photo, select Properties), copy the address field and paste it in place of what you have. For Example, http://nissaninfiniticlub.net/...d.JPG will produce your photo.....

Please post a review when you get a chance! Falken is touting these a lot and I'd like to hear your impresssions on these tires. They are a replacement for the Falken Beta FK-451, right?

So far so good... I've thrown everything at them within reason due to the poor weather conditions. I'll get back at you later today as it's sunny outside, lol

Hey man, they came with tires but had a too low load rating, I believe 91 but it was 1500 for the wheels&tires. And the Falkens I got for 680

Yes, I have to admit they are a funny bunch. I've come across a couple of cool people who aren't ***holes as far as telling you, "... oh no don't do that, that's not VIP" Honestly I could give a damn what's vip,exe, or what's not. The more I look at cars on there, a lot of them are starting to look the same, there's only but so many body kits available... One person I will tip my hat off is to PMP LEX, or LUX, he has one of the sickest Q's I've seen pics of here in the states. Well he's actually in Hawaii but you get the point.

Looks great man! Where are the center caps? Ohh, NM, they're on in the last pic.

Those guys aren't asses on VIPStyle, they know everything is all, and everyone knows that STYLE is set in STONE. There is no possibility that style can have variation, style is ONE WAY ONLY. Think about it like this: Rock-N-Roll isn't allowed to have any variety, it must all sound EXACTLY ALIKE, and everyone who's a rock star has to look exactly like every other rock star. At least if you use their logic thats how VIP Style is

Thanks Kevin, I appreciate it. The first batch of pics were taken without the cap on, b/c the lugs and lock were the round ones and stuck out too far to put the center cap on.

You guys are so overkill on the whole strength issue. Vienna dish wheels in 18" with correct widths are easily at the almighty, heaviest car on earth, Q's requirements.

Solini, forgot to mention, but Meguiars NXT "insane shine" - or something like that - tire shine will make your lower trim look like it's painted black. That's what I use and it really looks black like the body. Good enough till I end up getting it painted.

Nice looking wheels, I've looked at similar, but wasn't sure I wanted to do dark on dark ... some food for thought.

Check out the tutorial in my sig, for some tips/help on how to upload/post pics ... you seem to have the upload part done, the posting tips should help.
