GTR Wheels on 4G Maxima

So I've been looking at Maxima tribute videos on YouTube to decide what kind of wheel is going to look the best when I upgrade to 17 or 18" wheels next spring.

I think what I'm gravitating towards is something like this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-18-GTR-Style-Rims-Gunmetal-Wheel-Nissan-350Z-370Z-300ZX-240SX-S13-S14-/321167091030?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Wheels&hash=item4ac70ce556&vxp=mtr
Has anyone does this? Are there photos? Any caveats? Can they be found for less than $800 for a set, or is that typical?

So obviously they are not OEM because they are 18". I wasn't referring to OEM wheels.

So, nobody has anything like these on their 4G I can look at? Just want to see them.

As long as they are good quality, I don't care if they aren't OEM. Just don't want to overpay for them for sure. -pc

Member "mista0406" seems to have the look I'm going for. Not sure what size those are, but I need to stick to no larger than 18".

yea as i was saying dont buy them, because its quite obvious you are going to get fcuked over listening to what you are saving.. If you want to buy just a "decent" set of wheels, look on here find something you want and pick them up, i suggest a a set of 521s in silver 18x8.5 +25:

He's apparently got G35C Rims 18x8 235/40/18 on there. That's what I want, or something damn similar. -pc

What about 2007 350z wheels? They're kinda similar and I'm over in Jersey. I'm selling mine, a few posts down is my FS thread.

Update: After lurking craigslist for a long time I finally got a set of these for $250.

Now I'll just have to get some tires to put on them!
