Wheel Advice

Just got a 2003 White Infiniti G35 sedan. Wanted to know what some of you would think about these rims on that car.
Thanks |
Those look like Tenzo Cuzcos. Nice looking wheel, but I wouldn't color match the car. Go with a classic silver wheel. They will still look "in style" in 10 years.
Cuzco wheels are kind of heavy.. |
What brand would you recommend that won't break the bank? Looking for 18s. Would love to stay around 1k or lower/
|
I guess I should have asked and not assumed,sorry..
Are you going for looks, performance or both? |
I'm running these-
http://www.err0neous.org/mbz/oz_superleggera_1000.jpg They don't make them anymore, but you can find them used for about 1k, or close to it. My 18x8's weigh 17.6 lbs a piece which dropped about 9 lbs/corner over stock wheels. What a huge difference. |
I disagree with Barry. I say color match all the way. White cars with white wheels look sweet. Or, I would say go with a black wheel with a white lip.
|
I'm with Dave, go with what you like on the car " now" not 10 years on down the road.....
Secondly...do you really plan on keeping the car 10 years???? I like some color matched rims...I liek all black on white cars/trucks too. |
Some black rims with a white lip would be awesome. I haven't been able to find any online though. Maybe someone could point me in the right direction. Yeah not keeping the car ten years. I'm a second year in college so once I graduate and get a job, I will be purchasing a new car.

^^^ U can alwalys find some rims you like and have them powdercoated/painted. should be no more than 3-$400 for all 4 rims.
|
I guess I'm the odd duck-
Style takes a back seat to performance for me. Unless I can find a stylish performance wheel.. you won't touch one for under 400/wheel. I keep my cars until they become problematic. Last car I had for 13 years so what it looks like in ten years is just as important as what it looks like today.. |
