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.

mg,
Very nice. Can you tell me where you got the spoilers and if they will fit my 04 I35? 18"
Q wheels, hmmmm.....very nice. Are the Q wheels a direct fit?

he got the spoilers from maxmojo at paradox systems most likely. and yes the q wheels were a direct fit being that they have the same bolt pattern.

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?

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.

I did get it at Paradox, but the body shop shaved it down a little bit at the ends.

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

Ahh, I see. Any particular reason why they did it, or was it just for aesthetics? Several of us other A33 guys with that spoiler have had trouble with getting them to stay curved and stay stuck to the trunk.

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