I always find it a little ironic how that works, spending more money to get nice things for the car like wheels, mods, etc... and in the end all they serve to do is further devalue the car in the eyes of dealership/buyers.

funny you should ask

(these are the G35c 17's that I got for auto-x...but they will get winter tires in the winter)

nyautostyle...if I ever sell the car, I'll sell it with these 17's....but I will drive a car to death before I sell it (and may keep this one around instead of selling it, since I've done so much to it)

also, don't forget - both sets of my G35 wheels say "NISSAN" on the back of them so I doubt a dealer would mind!

17x8 (35mm offset) R and 17x7.5 F (30mm offset) (but all of them have 235/45 rubber)...for auto-x I will be running the 8" ones in front and 7.5" ones in back....

Alright Irish, if you're really going to miss your OEM wheel that much, I'll let ya take my 2k2's for the modest sum of $10,000.

That should be enough for me to do every mod I desire with my car, and still have plenty left over for something else.
