So, I was trying to be efficient and give my back two wheels to my buddy for powder coating before the big East Coast storm hits - when I wouldn’t be driving the car anyways.
My plan was to put the spare from the G on one side and the spare from my FX50 on the other side but unfortunately the FX50s spare is so damn big that I can’t fit in the wheel well of the G!
Anyways, a bit of a fail, but the one thing that I learned in the process is that the duck feet wheels are damn heavy! I was very surprised of how heavy they are for an 18 inch wheel.
Is 25lbs per wheel heavy? I weighed the 8.5" and its 25lbs, but the 7.5" wheel weighs a little less. I weighed chrome vs. painted (I own both) and there was zero difference in weight.
I want to say the highly coveted G35 19" Rays are 22/23lbs, but they also require heavier 19" tires.
I run PS-4S, which were some of the lightest 18" tires when I was shopping.

I recently got my car windows tinted at Alamo Auto Aesthetics in San Antonio and wanted to share. The process was quick, professional, and the results look amazing. It really helps with heat and privacy while keeping the car looking sleek.
If you're going to try and pretend to be a customer, at least consider your username choice next time...
Anyway, here's a cool photo of my interior. Threw a Broadway in to wrap up the interior changes, going to give it a nice detail next week. All that's left is to toss a Bride in for the driver's seat and I think I'm finished messing around in there.

Deleted the advertisement. Will leave the user for now as they may own a G/Z.
You get an A+ for originality on this one. That wood is classy as hell.
Need to find the 3D print clock module/gauge adapter and finish that project up.
I like the idea of a gauge where the clock goes. I saw this thread last year, and thought about trying it at some point. I am sure you have seen it already... https://www.myg37.com/forums/d-i-y-i...gauge-pod.html
Maybe you can get a broken or inexpensive clock from eBay to cannibalize it for the sides to fill the area the gauge does not fill?
Such a tease, Hexotic, you are so, so naughty...
Apple Watch? (or equiv.)?
That would be more inline with what I would like to have rather than a 2" eyesore of a gauge.
I am sure Frank will update as when time permits...

Hahaha, he's teasing me too. And yeah I believe it's an iWatch as a base. It's touch screen and scrollable with multiple gauges as far as I understand.
As Spock would say, "Fascinating." I am guessing with his bluetooth server device paired with the Apple Watch (or whichever device) as the display... That, or the GTR gauges, would be the answer to my needs.
