Wrecked my G coupe

I got into a bad wreck this winter on these icy Chicago roads and totaled my G37X coupe. Fortunately enough I had my winter tires on the car with 17in rims and I saved my 20 in Lorenzos. I figured someone on here might want these for their use since I wont be repurchasing a G. Attached are pictures, PM me if interested.

Here is a picture of the wrecked G. It saved my life with the seatbelts and crumple zones. I got hit head on going about 85 mph.

They were included on my 2009 G37x coupe when I purchased it, all 4 tires are the same size and fit perfectly on the G without spacers. They also have TPM.

Car drifted across a grass median. You can tell from the picture that I turned it just enough to make it a somewhat glancing blow. The entire cockpit crumpled around me, but I walked away without a scratch except for bruising on my shoulder where the seatbelt kept me back.

sucks man but doing 85 on "these icy Chicago roads" as you put doesn't make much sense to me. Glad you are not hurt and hate to see a nice car wrecked but I gotta say dude, change your driving habits.

AH, it didnt really affect my X with those Blizzaks on them, but definitely the guy driving a RWD SUV that hit me.
