Neither, I think the 03 G35, premium package wheels look better (the 5 star wheels) . They almost look like the I30t wheels but better.

I would definitely jump on the newer set in pic #2. I think they are some of the best looking wheels the G-s came with... Other than the 19" split five spokes.

Nocturnal, the car looks alot better with the I30 tailights now. Those are 19" Q45 rims, right? Looking AWESOME. Good luck with the exhaust thing. Keep us all posted.

As for the Original post...I like the 2nd pic and yes, it is a very good Photochop can't even tell.

Secondly, the 03 G35 5-Star wheels look amazing. I think I'm gonna get me a pair of them for my winter wheels in 17's (Well, hopefully they come in 17's)

Third and lastly, those Q45 rims looks insane on you I30 NOC...what suspension setup are you riding? Or was this just a Photochop as well?

I was about to make the same suggestion. Those wheels look SICK on an A32 I30.

The second choice is better but as mentioned before, the five spoke rims posted after on the thread is again better then the two photochopped ones.

Just curious but what's up with the cemetary background?

Well one is a six spoke wheel and the other is seven, and I think the designs are quite different. Have you seen the eye doctor lately? lol

Thats with premium pkg? thought they came with the sport suspension pkg?

In any case, i agree those look better than option one and two. I'd still take #2 over 1 though
