Take a look at jltibbs' 8th picture.

You really think those look bad?

Also, those rims are pretty light. My 19s on the G weigh 19 and 21 lbs respectively. The 18s are right around the same weight. Maybe a lb or two heavier if they aren't forged.

Here's a quick chop job of what they'd look like.

I would personally suggest getting some nice 17s or 18s with wide tires and dropping her an inch or so.

You can probably get a deal by calling around to the various dealers and asking them if they have any blems or take offs. Try to get a set with tires and you'll be good.
I agree 100%. I have the 17" G35 wheels on my 96I30 and it just makes it look so much newer and stylish. However I did need to get 5mm spacers in the front to make the center caps fit right. Its cool though cuz now they stick out evenly with the rears.

Take Offs are a great way to update the look of your car in a subtle way, plus you can get good deals on craigslist and from dealerships.If i had the cash I would get the Work wheels, i have always loved them.

PBfrEAk,

Yo soy estupido. What does your custom title mean? I can't think that hard right now.

Also, do you love Peanut Butter (PB)?
