I think they look good. I just wouldn't buy them from EBAY. But I am kind of an Ebay hater so that's all up to you

Nasty! meaning i wouldn't roll em. Dont ever get what you can afford. Get what you love to a point. I want HRE's but will get a forged wheel and only in 20 inch. They will run me just over 5 g's with wheels and tiresGL

Alright, Alright... keep in mind that this is a sedan, and also... They look quite similar to the stock 07 G35 wheels... I don't mind them, but I'm going larger than that, I find anything under 19 just looks stock anyway.

I buy from ebay, I'm currently waiting to recieve a few new items... he he

I've never purchased anything over 2000 bucks though...

Don't waste your time bidding. Those will NOT fit. Offset in the rear is too low for a 9.5" wheel. You need at least 40 offset rear.

a 38 offset with 9.5" wheel is going to be very close. at worse case you will have to roll the fenders and srun a stretched tire size. instead of a 265 tire you may have to run 255. i would just get the right offset so you can run the proper tire size. rolling the fenders in no big deal, but if you have to do both, why?

here is how offset works, the lower the number the futher the wheel is pushed outward and the higher the number the opposite effect. so a 35 offset wheel will stick out 3mm futher than a 38 offset. for a 8.5" wheel you could run a 33-38 offset and the right tire size and not have to do any modifications. on a 9.5-10" wheel a 40+ offset will fit the best. the oem wheel offset for the sedan is 45. just remember to take in consideration the right tire size as well. i know the stretched tire will get you more aggressive offsets, but IMHO, it looks like a$$ and provides no protection for your wheels.
