OP i think u should keep your wheels but i do have a few grips about ur setup.

i would go with a matte silver color front grill. get some clear corners and get rid of the black SE taillights and switch over to the chrome 02-03 taillights.
a nice stillen aero body kit wud complete your setup and ur done!
yes switch the black se's for my chrome ones! would look better cuz your paint is lighter instead of dark.

I'd go with those XXR's. Maybe a silver one or black definately. IDK about any other colors like white or chrome or titanium look though.

your car is in great shape... ****ing salt up here isnt the nicest to all cars. and im all for going to 19's! i am more sport wheel biased (volks, 5zigen, and reps) than bling. what about OEM Rays G35 wheels?

Looks real good once you lower it a bit more it will look even better,congrats.

Did you ever cconsider a light tint? 35% black tint & smoked bumper lights would set it off with the black wheels..

Love the style and color of the rims.

Not digging the rear offset at all. Not at all.

Not even if you were to slam it. IMHO

Is there something wrong with your Rotas or are you just tired of them, I was going to suggest these to the OP.
