Good deal or No? Inifniti Wheels

so my bro in law has had his g35 wheels sitting around for a lil over 2 year since he sold the car he has no need for them so i asked him if he would like to sell it to me and he said sure to give him $200 and i can take em.

What do you guys think, good deal or no?

plus the tires have a lil over 50% thread left on them bc they were barely used since he bought after market rims. they're michellin pilots

Before:


After:

and yes i know the tire air is low. the wheels have been sitting for abt 2 years so thats why it looks a bit retarded but im going today to put air in them and mount all four.

as well the tire in the back is a bit more wider. back is 245/45/18 and front is 225/45/18.

SO WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

Plus on the way are the illuminas with the h progress lower springs, plus smoked side markers.

The 18s are heavy as hell. With tires mine weigh 54 lbs each. I gotta get lightweight wheels.

$50 a piece for G35S rims... and you don't know if that's a good deal or not?



Buy + Flip = Profit

$400 in clean condition, give or take. Research ebay and craigslist for a number you're comfortable with. Better yet, tell your Brother-in-law that you'll sell them for him, and take your cut.

Heh heh. True, Hotshot. But there's good reason for it. The rims on the G35S and G37S are really attractive. It's just a good, clean design.

Wow wish I had a brother in-law that doesn't know the true value of his rims ... up here a good set of G35 rims goes for anything between 450 - 650.00 depending on the condition ... you have one very sweet deal there.
