Rotiform KPS or RSE

I'm new and in search of wheels for my newly bought 2013 G37 sedan. I have these two in mind and wanted opinions and feedback of anyone who has seen or used these before.









Forgive me if format is wrong

Both are nice but I say the first one cause it's easier to clean.

Both are very nice. The first is obviously easier to clean and wax, however if you don't have a BBK, then definitely get the second set. Nothing more awkward looking than narrow spoked wheels showcasing little rotors and non-sport calipers.

Those giant calipers and psychedelic groved rotors... yikes!

That's what I was thinking. I don't mind too much about cleaning but I think the second wheel would look better with stock brakes. I don't have a BBK yet

I have a 2010 G37xs with akebono big brake kit and came across the opportunity to purchase either one of these wheels , similar situation you are in. Only problem is ive been looking everywhere for information to see if either wheel would clear the brakes ? Do you or anyone on this post know if either wheel will clear the brakes ? Looking to get 19x10 in either set , they offer +40,+35, and +25 offset. Not interested in 19x8.5 sets ( Running square set up)

Lemos, doubt you'd get confirmation here, pretty rare wheel setup, at least among the G crowd. +25s would have the best shot at clearing the Sport calipers but a +35 would be best for fit @ the fender on your coupe, and being able to run a wider tire.
I'd contact the vendor and you can provide them w/ these caliper templates if they're not sure~

Ah, I thought your XS was a coupe since it had Akebonos, but now I know you added them later
A 19x10 +40 would be a much better fit on a sedan then, but that puts brake clearance even more at risk
