I'm aiming for a square setup, seems like the simplest option since I'm new to wheels. Is eBay the best bet to finding a set? Never really dealt with craigslist

Saw this G on the way home from work, M45 19s. Looked nice.

Also, sent my wheels back to the powdercoater ... the color he picked was too much of a strange slate grey color, at certain angles/lighting, it had a strong bluish hue, almost like the "blue slate" color that Gs come in, not what I was looking for. When I get them back they should be a true graphite/gunmetal.

I like the blue grey combo Saint but I may be bias because I had the competition grey wheels (almost same color) on my corvette and loved them.

Thanks, tried for a while to convince myself the same, but couldn't do it.

Q50 performance wheels also have the slate blue look. It's unique for sure, just not exactly what I imagined

Sorry to hear they're not going to work for you STown, I'd imagine it's going to be a PITA (and wallet) to have a do-over

Wow, the coupe wheels look really nice on the sedan. Very nice. This may be a great alternative for me for my sedan. Just need to find some for sale in Northern California now.

OH not so bad, yes a bit of a time drain but the owner/operator of the shop was ore than accommodating.

Felt like an *** bringing them back and being so particular, but being in the auto modification business, the owner easily related

Finally decided not to use the tires that came with my wheels, they're "grand touring" a/s tires, 245/45/19 all around ... not exactly an ideal setup for our cars.

Pretty sure I'm going w the Potenza RE970AS, now trying to narrow down sizes.

OEM 225/45 245/40

or

Slightly wider 245/40 255/35

Anyone know how the sizes will affect looks? Will likely be staying on OEM suspension for a bit.

I'd run the 245/40 or 255/40 I wouldn't go w/ a 255/35 for the smaller diameter.

I'm sure this has been gone over on this thread, but I just want to throw this out there to make sure. I have a 2010 G37x Sport, looking to get a set of coupe 19s staggered. Found a set on craigslist with tire sizes front: 225/45/19 rear: 245/40/19. Will this cause any problems for me or will I be all set?
