Yea they are 2017 Q60 coupe rims 19x9 the rears fit okay but the front don't clear the brake calipers. The guy put 3mm spacers on the front but the hubs aren't centering inside the wheels so I am going to get a 10mm spacer with the hub extension as well as longer studs

Odd that the fronts don't clear the brake calipers. Are you sure he didn't put the spacers on to get the wheels more flush?

Just put the 10mm hub centric spacers on so the wheels clear and the vibration and shake is gone

Was the G37 a 2007? You're in a unique position to explain why one is better than the other. So... why does it feel good?

No wait, I found it. You had an '04. Yeah, very different car.

Two years in the planning, eh?

You found me...yes been thinking about it for a while now and couldnt pass on the car I found...I got the exact trim for $12,000 without any problems, so I think it was the time to buy...I still think some of the angles on the 1gen g35 looks way better than the g37 but what I noticed mostly was how quiet the cabin is without all the panels creaking... and I also like how the 37 revs up on the highway but maybe I'm just used to no compression with my 35...Now I just have to lower it

I just couldnt give up the 6speed so it helped that the g37 I got has the 2 tone q60 coupe wheels so it kinda looks like a q50 sedan I wanted

And let me add that it was only 2 hours away from me in Mass. so it was relatively easy to pick up, I was kinda preparing myself to fly out n pick one up somewhere because I was getting sick of driving my g35 without power steering

Looks good! I'll consider doing my own vinyl wrap project as well but will probably seek some professional help from Gatorwraps.

Hey, did you by chance buy our G from Texas Direct Auto off 59 in Stafford? If so, I think I may have test drove it back when I was looking around this time last year.

I guess I'll check in too(don't think I have)... as my signature says, 2013 Black on Black 6MT. Haven't really done much, besides wheels (which I love some moments and not so much others. Def love the flush fit tho), some LEDs (front turn signals swithbacks, license plate bulbs and interior lights), and Carsmo *****.

I have stayed away from the forum lately since I got laid off and looking so many modded cars is so tempting and I simply can't afford it right now. When I get things back in order I may consider an exhaust and drop in Swifts. I had a dream the other night I had an exhaust . Lol













One of the reason I'm iffy on the wheels is they don't photograph well and come out looking chrome in most pics. Up close in person they are a light smoke/gunmetalish color. Also I wish they were more concave/deeper center. I'm sure I'll be changing them in a year or so. Lol
