Check out my new I30
Here is my 2001 I30 that I got about 5 months ago. Changed the wheels to 18" Infinti Q45's with Continential 235/40. I think the front wheel well looks a little high, but I don't want to lower it. I don't want to get rid of the luxury ride. I just installed a rear trunk lip spoiler and rear window spoiler. The only engine mods I have made are K&N filter and NGK Iridium Spark Plugs. Here are some pics. Let me know what you think.

Looks Great man!
What % tint is that? It looks pretty dark. Is that the half size rear window spoiler? It looks pretty nice.
You will definately want to drop that thang sooner or later. I have heard that the H&R springs are pretty close to stock and gives a nice even drop.
Do you plan on clearing things out? It makes a huge difference.
Also, did you put your spoiler on? I have the same one, but it started to peal up at the edges. How is yours doing and how long have you had it?

Got the spoilers at;

I picked up the wheels and tires on EBay for about $2000. Yes they are direct fit.

Looks great! I'd love to get my hands on a set of Q45/M45 chrome 18s.
Did you get your trunk lip spoiler at paradox? The reason I ask is that the ends look different from mine (which I got at Paradox).

Thanks. That is 20% tint. I had the body shop put on the spoiler after they painted it. I noticed that the rear window probably will need to be retaped. It seems that it is starting to come up.

Looks very good. Q wheels are a great option for us because they have the offset that we should have gotten. they sit much more flush than stockers. I got Q wheels....but they are 15's and off a mid 90's Q

Also, how's the ride quality with the 18s? What tire size you have on there?
