I will be hopefully today closing a deal on some almost completely prestine set of G35 Coupe rims. Only 1 rims has slight curb rash. I'm giddy with anticipation (and can't wait to get rid of those blasted spacers). I will pick up the rims for $350.

Nice ... good deal btw!
That rash is not that bad and you might be able to get a shop to flush it out for you. Shouldn't cost much I wouldn't think. That is assuming you even mind that much.
Those rims will look goood on your ride though, nice find!

I'll be reusing the tires I used on my old rims I sold to Ilyak. They are Kuhmo SPT's, 225/45/18's. Nothing fancy, but they were practically brand new, so I want to use them.

oh i c. those are the exact tires i have except in 17's. i think there pretty darn good tires. traction is a lot better than the last set i had...
The center cap fitment issue is concerning the caps not snapping all the way into the rims b/c of how far in the rim sits, the gold cap in the rear prevents the center cap from snapping in fully, and up front it is prevented by the axle nut iirc.
Sweet rims! I've got the G35 sedan 17s and am running with no center caps until I figure out what I can do besides spacers...
I can't wait to see some pictures of them mounted! I've also got Kumhos on mine and I love them....

Alright the moment of truth:
02 GLE center caps work. They snap in just fine. I believe my rear axle dust caps were hammered in so they clear. Also I had a problem were I needed to use the 5mm spacer up front because hub of the wheel wouldn't engage the hub of the brake rotor right. Also my lugs were too long, so I need to replace my lugs as right now, the studs are sticking thru them slightly up front. Finally, I goofed on my tire size, they are 225/40/18. The caliper clearance is phenomenal! I can get my fingers between the spokes and the calipers
