I think the EVO5 is the best looking wheel for a 4th gen.

Where are you going to find the Milles? Unless you can score a set in good condition used, there is a knockoff brand on tirerack that isn't exactly the same, but very similar. FWIW, I've only seen a couple of sets go up for sale since purchasing mine used back in 2007.

I am biased though

I think there were a couple of used sets in the classifieds, including Kev's

I'd also go Mig's, but if you go the OEM route those FX45 wheels are looking pretty good.

G35 18's at the front and mille miligia evo 5 18's at the back. That way you get best of both worlds...lol.. but seriously mille miligia evo 5 18's is the way to go.

Id go with what this guy has, I forget the name of these rims, but they look identical to the mille's. I think they were being sold on tirerack.com a while back, these are actually stronger, and lighter than the original miglia's. All I would do is get some mille miglia center caps and no one would ever tell the difference....might do this in the future myself....

Both seem to be used frequently. While they both look great, I'd go for something more unique.
But if you pick either of these, it will look great.

LOL@ BBA!!

Anyway.. I really like the g35 rims.. In fact i just bought a wheel and tire package and if i could have found some decent g35's i would have grabbed em .. at least for winter...

That said the Evo's are sweet too and for me if i could have found some evo's that were pristine ... ooooh .. that would have been the ticket!

So EVO > G35..

only because the evo's would match my evo 4g and my hankook evo v12's!!

LOL


Really they are both nice looking rims.. ill be looking for a set of either in the winter so i can put up these new shoes i got.

AFTERMARKET>OEM any day, sell the g35's and get those evo's...

Lol @ bandwagon being used. I don't think that's the right word for it, but the g35 wheels have been used way to many times in the 4th and 5th gens. As for the evo's I haven't seen them used on no more than at least 3 or 4 4th gens.

How are the evo's played out? The g35 18's are way wayyyyy played out more than any wheel in the maxima community. And the FX wheels look hideous on any car other than a stock FX...

lol, i'm not getting mad i was just stating my opinion on other peoples opinion. i just find it funny how some people mis use some words or how people say things and it kinda contridicts what they are saying. also i dont see how people would perfer or lead some one to buy OEM wheels over aftermarket, especially when some of the OEM wheels go for $600+ when you can save up an extra $200 or $300 to get a decent set of aftermarket wheels. thats all i was trying to point out...

My choice would go to the Evo's. Looks a lot better than the g35's IMO

I'm gonna have to go ahead and respectfully disagree with you on this one. Your join date shows 08. Were you a Max enthusiast back in 01/02/03? If you were around back in 01/02/03 everyone and their mother had these on their max, so yes these are played out so to speak. It's been so long since then that they kinda appear fresh again, where as the G35C rims have been used heavily in the last few years.
