Default Chrome 3GS 18's or G35 Coupe 18's: PLEASE VOTE

Would you rather buy Chrome 3GS 18's for a 2GS or G35 Coupe 18's? The hub bore is different on the G35 rims so I'd have to use a hub centric ring, but they have a more aggressive offset. Here are some stats:

3GS 18's
Dimensions: 18x8
Hub bore: 60.06
Offset: +45mm f and r

G35 Coupe 18's
Dimensions: 18x8
Hub bore: 66.06 (requires hub ring)
Offset: +30mm f and r

3rd Gen GS wheel all the way. I was never a fan of G35 wheels, but the G37 wheels are cool. Either way GS350 wheels FTW.

I PERSONALLY was never a fan of putting other manufacturer's rims on another car. So GS rims is what I'd go for.

GS 18s cause i'm bias like everyone else that voted for them, but aren't the G35 coupe 18s staggered?

so are you really going to go by a poll to see what wheels you are going to buy? So if we all voted for the lamest wheel just because we wanted to be jerks, you'd buy them and put them on? Let me know so I know how to vote. Thanks

the g35 18's are staggered which means no tire rotation. i would go with the gs350 18's.
