Nothing too dramatic, but I finally replaced my standard 17" wheels (which I hated from the day I bought the car) with some 18" sport wheels. I also added some 35% tint all around. Figured I'd post up a before and after pic. Small changes, but I think they make a large difference in the overall appearance of the car. Sorry for the not so great "after" pic, it was kinda overcast today.

Those are '07-08 G35 sport wheels on your G37..... :)

Cool rims but a real pain in the butt to wash.

Yes indeed they are the G35S wheels. I just wanted to go 18s and it was either them or the 18" coupe wheels. I never saw the coupe wheels on the sedan so I decided to make the safe play for the sedan wheels. I figured, my G37 looks Identical to the G35 so the wheels from the previous year don't look out of place, and frankly, only keen enthusiasts like ourselves would ever notice that they aren't the "correct" wheels for my car.

They are a bit more difficult to wash, but I'm kind of a clean freak with my cars anyway, so I typically dedicate at least an hour a week to detailing each of them. An extra few minutes of wheel scrubbin' won't kill me. :)

My neighbor just bought a 2011 G37 and it came with those wheels also. I guess it was a popular style so they brought them back after a 2 year hiatus. Unfortunately my '09 came with the boring 17" wheels so I had to pay extra for some OEM take-offs.
