I got some new 20's on my 04 sedan. Before anyone asks I cannot take better pix, I've been activated by the air force and wont be home for a couple more months so new pix aren't an option, but I decided to post this pix anyways. Tell me what you guys think. Ride is a little bumpier but not too bad at all. They are XXR's.

Let me know what you guys think

What's your cup of tea? 17" flat tires?

I love them, they look nice, I didn't think I wanted to go black, but I think that looks sick man!

I wouldn't want to go any smaller, the wheel wells are so damn big!!!

Fly safe

Believe me I absolutely HATE the leather bra with a passion!!!

The one and only reason I have the bra on there is because my lil bro backed into my car with an expedition. In a perfect world I would have replaced the damaged parts by now, but money is tight. I need a new hood, grille, and to re-paint the bumper. It will all come in time, but until then I will sport a bra rather than have the damage show. It doesn't look horrible but it is definitely noticeable. Is it really that bad?!?!

Maybe I'll live on cup of noodles for a couple of weeks and splurge and buy all the parts that need to be replaced when I get back home.

I personally just don't like leather bras. They belong on dominatrices, not on cars

I feel your pain though. Sorry about your bro. I'd make your bro get a job and start paying you a little each pay check until it's paid off. This teaches him the importance of money and responsibility. Sign spinning is a great job for a kid!!! I used to be a supervisor for a company that does it out here in CA.

Yeah I debated on that, but he's in school and he struggles enough in class. It was hard to swallow but when it happened I decided that him doing good in school is more important then my car. So as long as he's in school full time I'll pay for it.

The one and only up side to a bra is no other G35 on the road seems to have it. It may be because it doesn't look good, but either way it makes mine a lil unique.

Thats what I tell myself anyways.

...your money- spend it however you want. 20's may actually be a bit too big and the black on black might fit an '07-'08 a little better.If you like it, that is all that matters.

Wheels look good. I like the black.

Bras are for boobs, not cars. But I understand why you are rockin' it. Hope you get her fixed soon.

Dont get me wrong I like the wheels, and it doesnt look too bad on the car... but I dont think it looks great either. I'm just not a fan of the black on black. So long As the owner likes them thats all that matters

Yeah whenever somebody asks me why I put a bra on it I just tell them I like my cars like I like my women: Fast, In a bra, and covered in wax. Thats usually defers any furthur questions. LOL

As far as the black on black goes I actually really like that look. I actually plan on getting the black housing headlights and possibly even paint the grill black. LOL I just think the all black and chrome look is sexy. I may start humping the tail pipe when i'm done with all the mods.

its not my taste, but the size works well. think about getting rid of that plastic nastyness. it will give you a much cleaner look.

I'm not a fan of Black/Chrome wheels. They look a little ghetto. I think it would look better all black or all chrome

Yeah, I knew I was going to get mixed results on the rims. To me they are more of a urban city type style, so it seems that when I'm talking to people from los angeles I get good responses, but when some of my out of state friends see it, they are more negative. Which is cool I posted on here to hear both sides.

But if people are gunna be rude about it, then I'd rather not hear a response.which sarcastic or not that comment was rude, imo.

Either way to dignify the rude response the reason I didn't spend my money on fixing the hood instead of buying rims is because I am currently in a tug of war with my insurance company on whether or not they will cover it without me having to pay the deductible. I told them it was a hit and run and apparently my insurance policy is kind of vague on exactly how they deal with hit and runs.

Sorry if it came across as bit mean/rude....i was trying to add a bit of humor to the comment and not flame ya...but in any case it doesn't matter what I or anybody else thinks as long as you're happy. I was just tryin to imply the car could have been fixed if not for expensive wheels. I'm pretty sure those aren't ebay specials and have some quality to them :-)

there is nothing wrong, right up until they split in two while you are on the freeway. then you will wish you didnt get rims made out of recycled pie tins and coke cans.
