GTA Winter Wheels

Hi - Again, I'm fairly new here, so please redirect me if I missed something. Looking to get winter wheels for my 2008 G37s. Any recommendations? Steel vs set of alloy plus tires, only tires (not likely a good idea with my 19s?). Let me know any ideas or if anyone's looking to offload their winters.

thanks!

steel wheels will be hard to find

finding steel wheels that can clear sports brakes will be hard. cheapest would probly be kijiji for older g35 19s or any used 19s and that goes same with winter tires.

Any update on this?

I'm just starting my search myself, and it looks like the best option is to get a set of 18 alloys plus tires.

Any wheel suggestions? The cheaper the better lol..

I am using used 05 350Z 18 inch 5 spoke wheels and they clear fine. These 05+ 5 spokes are usually going for 500+ a set. I also seen some people on this forum using 03-04 350Z 18 inch 6 spokes and they clear the BBK fine. The 03-04 350Z OEM wheels are usually going for very reasonable price and are usually under $500 for a set. I am using a set of 04 350Z wheels for my FX35 and they were pretty cheap. Look on Kijiji or local car forums. These are great wheels with OEM qualities.
My car with the 05 350Z wheels.
