I want replace my stock wheels, but is hard to find the good wheel. Although G37 coupe does have nice wheels, but it does not look right to take another car brand wheel to put on my altima coupe unless I can scrape off the brand name. so does anyone have recommendation on wheel that looks like this brand or better(prefer black color), Borbet LV5 but from tirerack.com, this wheel is not available for altima coupe.. max I can spend 1000 buck.

thanks..

Check out Lorenzo wheels. They are made by American Racing. I got the WL027 in gloss black with machined face (there are 3 varieties of WL027). They also came out with some new models recently that are sick! I got my set for 750 no tax, with shipping. I found the seller on ebay, and it was $200 cheaper than the next competitor. The guy literally went to the American Racing warehouse to pick them up and ship them to me.

I got them in 19x8 size 5x114.3 lug pattern with 32mm offset. Check out the Lorenzo wheels online. If you like 'em, PM me and I can give you this guy's info.

For tires I got 225/40/19 Continental DWS Extreme Contact all season tires. They cost about $700 for all 4.

Only problem was that the seller took down my info over the phone and mispelled my last name, my street name and my city name, so I had to have Fedex hold the package.

with the infiniti wheels, you can just pop out the center caps which have the infiniti emblem on them, and replace them with nissan center caps, they're the same size.

I just check out your recommended website for Lorenzo. And I like this WL32 SATIN BLACK, will compare it to infiniti wheels.
