Looking for rims like the Infiniti G35 sport coupes 7 spokes.

I saw the G35 coupe and I will never figure out why someone would buy the 350Z over that. Anyways the closest I found so far are the Advan Racing Model 7s. Anyone know of any closer.

I will shoot myself if I see another pic of a silver G35. Does anyone have pics of a red or black one. I searched for almost half an hour and could only find silver.

Not sure if they're made for the FD though. They are there for the NSX so I'd assume they make the boltpattern.

The GC-07Cs are close.
Maybe I will wake up tomorrow with a set of these under my tree. If not that's it I am not believing in Santa any more!

I agree... the G35 looks 1000 times better than the Z.

I wondered if you'd lost that link! :-)

FYI, i checked the prodrive Japan site, and the proper sizes are listed: 18 x 8.5 +45 and 18x9.5 +45, but they actually listed +32 and +36 for the FD... didn't sound right to me....

Let us know what you find!

Yeah, our fitments are much better for some reason. Same thing with a lot of other manufaturers. I'd have to check into the pad height on these. But should be fine in the higher offsets.

i thought prodrive was made exclusively for subraru's... their bolt pattern is different then ours.

i inquired about the P1 anthracite about a year ago...

They make 'em for most Jap cars (like the NSX in Science of Speed's site for instance) but it seems the tire rack isn't carrying all sizes. In fact, I wasn't able to find too many cars that they would show up on in the interactive thing. I think they are only stocking up to 7.5" wide.

I think a set of 18" Brittish Black ones would look HOT on my silver FD! After i close on my house next month, i'll be trying to make a wheel decision, and these are at the top of my list.
