some guys put these on their 2GS
they say it fits perfectly.

before you guys hate, you gotta visualize.

Well this is for the wifes daily driver. She likes to curb wheels so why should I spend a lot of money on a nice wheel. If the hole was smaller all I would have had to do was enlarge it enough to clear and then use tapered lug nuts. I think the nissan wheels are tapered lugs anyways. I personally like the way it looks, and find it to be a better alternative to cheaper aftermarket wheels that do not have to meet any type of production standard. They would likely balance out pretty good by comparison as well. Just because it says infinity on the wheel does not make it a sin to install on lexus. Thank you to those that were supportive and the pics helped out a lot.

y'all know that these rims are oem rims manufactured by rays engineering for nissan/infiniti - the same rays engineering that manufactures volk racing rims?

hub diameter is 66.1 for the oem g35 19's; the 2is and the 3gs run 60.1. nothing a set of hubcentric rings can't fix, although both hub diameters are oem-sized.

oem lexus tpms sensors will also fit without modifications.

they're also very light for forged oem rims (19 lbs. front, 21 lbs. rear, without tires) - good for anyone that needs a set of cheap track/daily driver rims.

nowhere on the rim does it say infiniti. it does have "forged" stamped onto the outer face of the rims though a la aftermarket rims made by rays engineering.

the oem infiniti center caps can be replaced w/ a set of chrome center caps, or you can just run w/out center caps at all (albeit not recommended for long-term purposes).

So I guess I am confused with the offset. Are they gonna stick out, or in more than oem setup?

they are in 30s i believe. oem wheels for our car is 45, so they will stick out.
i don't think they look bad.. i wouldn't put them on though just because i had those same rims for my g35 several yrs..

dunnojack

so they stick out 1.5 centimeters more?. no big deal

offset is +30 in the front and +33 in the rear.

You can't only look at the offset. As i mentioned earlier in this thread the WIDTH of the g35 wheels is only 8"F and 8.5"R


a 8" wheel with a +30 offset would have the same fender clearance as a 9" wheel with a +43 offset.

yup.. op was just asking 'stick out' as in terms of outward or inward. i was just simply replying w/out going further into detail. our 8" rear wheels w 45 offset can sport up to 20mm without any rubbing issue. those g35 wheels will privide a good stance for our car. i'm just not too thrilled w the design anymore since i had those wheels for a while. if the op likes them, i think that's all it matters. check out the g35driver.com, you will see many ray's oem 19" for sale in 'market place'.

im not feeling these on 3gs. Maybe 2gs can pull it off.

dunnojack

they're beater wheels. so prob doesn't matter much

Flossin

are the pics above of the 3gen photoshopped?

I have no problems with putting another manufacturer's oem wheels on my car as long as they look good. They're just wheels, who cares? Just make sure you take of their emblem. It's up to you but I don't think the g35 wheels look that good and especially not for cars the size of the 3GS.
Still, like dunnojack said, they're beater wheels so who cares. Get them if they fit.

I concur, lightweight is the biggest advantage of this OEM Infiniti wheels(Rays/Volk). Weight is less than the OEM 19 IS-F wheels (21lbs front- 25lbs rear).

In terms of looks, i think my OEM 19 Kluger/Lexus wheels is better...LOL

speaking of your car...........

is it done yet??
