Default G35 Stockers on a GS3??

Hey guys my friend just got a G35 and is getting new rims. I know that they have pretty aggressive offsets but will the 6 spoke stock G35 wheel fit on my 99 GS3?

Thanks,
Elliott

Elliott, putting Nissan rims on a Lexus is ghey. Don't do it. Just wait and buy some wheels.

They're actually made by Rays Engineering. The same company that produces Volk, Work, Nismo, TRD, etc wheels.

Cmon Henry, you don't put OEM wheels from one carmaker onto another. You just don't do it.

Its like Michael Jordan playing in Converse.

PM OGS.... I bet he'll kill me for this one, but when he had his LS430, we put G35 19" coupe stocks on as "temp" wheels when he was getting his HRE's painted. It didn't look half bad actually (contrary to what I thought before doing so). He actually got A LOT of compliments until ppl figured out what was going on. The look wasn't bad, but I don't agree with the "idea" pf crossing over. Also, you must remember the hub bore on the Lex is 60.1 vs the Nissan 66.1 bore so you may get a vibration in the steering wheel.

i dont see anything wrong with it. I'm picking one up tonight since my stock spare wont fit over the supra bbk. It sucks to not have a spare that fits when you actually need it. As long as you dont have all 4 on your car

Henry~ think about what just happen to me. If the price is RIGHT, you can soon have a STM spare in your truck. Mn...... maybe need to customize the space to fit a 20"!!!

I didn't know Rays made Work wheels? I thought Work made Work wheels

I thought Rays made, Volk Racing, Lexion, G-games, Gramlight, Some of Roja wheels, 19" OEM G35 wheels, 18" & 19" OME 350Z Track and Grand Touring wheels and I know there are couple of other wheels but NOT WORK
