For real, even here in the MD/DC/VA area, dudes with 19s have problems with potholes etc... you might want to reconsider that thought....

Holy crap. That thing is uglier than my 1987 Honda Civic sitting in my driveway leaking a quart of oil a week. I think I need to go vomit. Why someone would do such a thing to that car is beyond me! Why do people insist on ghetto-fying cars that are otherwise classy?

i gotta tell ya man, if you want to put 20's or "DUBS" on your classy INFINITI, you might want to reconsider and buy a 1984 Chevrolet Caprice, then add Impala stickers too. This car may hold 20's, but it #1 will look terrible, #2 Ride terrible, #3 you will f-up your car in a million ways...go with 18's at most dude

Don't be such a douchebag. I said the car with 20s and the stupid *** paint job looks ghetto, not that it looks like a black man's ride. There's a difference between being black and ghetto. My best friend is black, and he's far from ghetto; he would never do that crap to such a classy car.

personally I like the rims. Though I would never go more than 19's on the i30. I pretty much like most of the newer chrome rims out there, but I wouldn't go with spinners. They are just starting to be too cheezy.

My Opinion.....

To me, I think 20 inch rims on a car looks really horrible. 20inch rims on a truck/suv/pic-up looks very nice. It's also a personal preference. The guy that is looking for rims might not be a speed racer or dragstrip guys like some of us, so maybe he just want to show off/floss his car around. That should be all up to him. I noticed that with the I35 i just bought, it's hard to pick rims. I can't decide to go with a racing wheel setup like 'Racing Harts' or volks or something, or go blingy. I also can't decide if i want a classy looking car to look like it can burn a mustang or to make it look like a pure classy car that I can pick up chicks in. Either way, it's all up to him. Even the guy with the ugly 20s and paint job, had people giving him good comments about his rims. So to each his own.....

oh and isockbull - you shouldn't worry about peoples comments. If you post a question on a forum you are bound to get mixed opinions regardless the subject/topic. Your taste will differ from everyone else on the forum. I been on countless amount of forums and once you post up a pic of something, you are bound to have at least a few flames or something.

I could not have put it any better. I35's are a very odd breed when it comes down to customizing. There is an invisible line between style and function when it comes to dealing with the car.

You God damn right!! I hate these stupid "20 inch chrome rim" threads! It always turns into this black culture debate

IMO don't get 20s!!

yay! another 20" wheels debate. most ppl just hate 20"s because they are 20"s. most of these ppl have never ridden 20"s, and are just going by what they've heard. they'll turn around and say get 19"s not realizing that the 20" tire has the same size tire as far as width and sidewall go. more importantly than all this is that had you looked instead of asking you could have found at least 2 awesome deals on the .org and avoided all this.

IMO - 18s are about as large as you should go on an A32, and 19s about as large as you should go on an A33.

Like I said though - it's my opinion. Yours may vary.

Let's face it, 18 inch looks best on the I30... 19 is cool to but those damned potholes!

everything bigger suck's *** cause it looks out of proportion... and dude, how can you like that I30 you posted a link of, that is the most discusting car I'v seen in weeks! YUK! an I30 is a classy car, not a gooniegoogoo mobile! So keep it in style please or buy a freakin honda... sigh
