they aren't bad, but personally I like the more 'open' look where you can see the rotors(brembos x-drilled/slotted)/pads. Plus some people will not know it's not factory, I'd rather have aftermarkets. Don't get me wrong though I think it'd look nice. Do you have any shots of them on an I30?

The best I think would be the mesh BBS wheels with a nice big polished lip. I also like my 10 sopke style.
I don't think real sporty or aggressive wheels look good on an I30. Sublte is the way to go with our cars. IMO.

i love it man. too bad i only got to drive with it lowered for about 1 minute before i lost 1st and 2nd gear, which was over a month ago. i had the rims on for a while before that, and the tires gripped pretty well, but i do notice potholes and cracks more. i kinda forget now.....when these tires die, im gonna get bigger tires to help out with ride. i think the SFC's help out with ride a good amount.

What's an SFC? Bigger tires will throw the speedometer off.. I wonder if anyone has done this but recalibrated their speed somehow? Anyone know how to recalibrate your speed? Then we could go with some larger diams without worrying about cops pulling us over for speeding 70 when we're going 50 (at least the speedo says so):P

You can push it into a corner about as hard as you want to and the only downside is you're eating off those tires (which run about $180-190 vice $90-100 like the HR OEM jobbies).
Tirerack has them online, I've seen them elsewhere too - likely to move to them as mine wear out, but I've got quite a lot of tread left on my tires still.

Tire Depot, eh? Are they online? $1400C should be about $1000 US.

I like the BBS RX 18x8 at $569 I'm going to be waiting. If you've got $ spilling out your ears, look at HRE's wheels. www.hrewheels.com

I meant to post this here.
Woops, I meant to post this here not on a new thread.
I am in the same delimma. I have a 2002 I35 and I am looking to get some aftermarket wheels for my ride. Problem is, there are not to many luxury wheels on the market that provide class, style, and best of all subtleness. Here are some manufacturer websites you may want to look into if you are really looking at getting some Luxury Wheels for you car.
www.diabloracingwheels.com
www.dazzmotorsports.com
www.giovannawheels.com
www.mhtwheels.com
www.privatwheels.com
www.cecwheels.com
And here are some companies that sell them
www.streetdreams.org
www.discounttiredirect.com
www.discountwheelwarehouse.com
www.exclusivemotoring.com
www.cheaprims.com
Hope you have luck finding the right wheel for your car. (Trust me, its not an easy tasks when dealing with a luxury ride.)
Oh before I forget, here is the wheel I feel looks best on the I35's

hey guys, just a heads up. always ask what each rim weighs because all of these nice luxury rims you see out there most of them are HEAVY. if you're looking for 18" wheels, try and get something under 24lbs per wheel. this way you won't kill your gas mileage and slow down your I30/I35
