So at my work (niello infiniti) we have some extra g35 rims. My manager was gonna sell them to a scrapper but he said i can have them for 80. Heres the thing, at first i definitly wanted them but i saw a j30 with the base G35 wheels and they look AWFUL. Now, the car and the rims are both different then mine, but take a look, do you think these would look good on my car?

My car looks similar to this:

I can only find this pic on the internet of the rims. They are not chrome...



So what do you all think?

I think the style of that wheel matches the I very well. It would probably look great.

I think it would look great also. It will add that not so stock look to the car. Give it a little more of an aggressive look.If for whatever reason you decide you don't want the wheels, I'll buy them from you, for my Maxima.

Some of the sedans got like a 17" version of the wheels you have. Same with the sport sedan and sport coupe. They have similar wheels but the coupe wheels are bigger.
