18x8 ASA JH3s w/ Blizzak LM-22s winter wheel & tire setup

I bought these from TireRack last Fall for $1680 for 18x8 ASA JH3s (look pretty close to stock 18" G wheels, look good on 350Z too) with LM-22s mounted & balanced on them.

Fronts are 225x45, Rears are 245x45, proper load rating, etc, just like stock 18" Performance Wheel & Tire package specs on the G35 Coupe.

The snow handling is simply amazing. Last winter was the first time driving a RWD car in snow that didn't FEEL like driving a RWD car in snow - they cut right through slush and snow on uncleared roads on at least three occassions and got me home without any slipping or sliding. They also handle very well for winter tires and the ride is a bit more comfortable than the 18" PW&T package.

Only put 4k miles on them over the winter, so they should last another 3-5 seasons easy, as winter tire rubber is harder than summer tires and should easily last another 20-25k.

Asking $1200 or best offer. Local buyers only (that means anyone willing to come pick them up). I have them stored in Mt. Airy, MD, so see if that's in range for you (anyone from NoVA up is definitely in range).

Reply here or email me: yacoub at gmail dot com

Thanks.

For winter?? LOL, most people get 17s, some get 18s if they want it to look a bit more like stock. Never heard of anyone getting 19s or 20s for winter. I can't imagine how much winter tires cost in those sizes.

Then why did you bother replying with a comment about 19s or 20s in a thread about WINTER running gear for the G35/350Z?

Oh and chuck - welcome to the Mid Atlantic area. We get that nasty white stuff here in the winter.
