thanks

I am not sure what I will end up with but I started looking at Assanti bc my sales mng's husband is an owner. I wont pay retail for these so I started shopping. I just sold my Volk Gtc's, that I had on my G35 they where 9.5 and 10.5 and didnt fit the G37. So time to start shopping. Thanks for the reply's any ideas for wheels toss them this way.

whats your budget? Chrome is heavy and will slow u down if that matters.

style is good but it was a very popular style with the G35's.

yep

Thats her last name. If they hook me up it there I'll pick them up bc retail for these wheels is way to much. I would go with something else for sure if I dont get a great deal.

The sad truth is Assanti like Lexani's are highly marked up, Lexani more so than Assanti's but if you got him as a connection he almost give's wheels away sometimes. He wanted to give me a set of Lexani's on my truck for free if i could bring it to any small venue he needed extra cars for, but i didn't want to sign my car over to him for use whenever he wanted. Also wanted to trade 2 sets with my buddy who owns a audio shop for some labor on his personal vehicles.

I think they will look great! I have a massive list of wheels I'm trying to choice from. The 144's and the 142's are on it. The hardest decision for me is do I want some class or performance. If you've decided on them please let me know what sizes and offsets you choice.

I think that's a good price. I looked and looked, best I could find was $1,000ea. I had a hard time choosing I finally went for a lighter wheel but at least you won't have the same wheels as everyone else. I think they are a class wheel and fit the overall theme of the G.
