Give me a break dude. Wheels don't take that long to make, ordering them before the car is in hand is idiotic.

I'm curious to know the wheel specs as well. I want to order rims now so they'll be in by the time the car gets in. Could they possibly be the same spec's that the current G coupe's have?

This is a funny thread. Every time I see a car with overly priced wheels and tires that clearly don't belong, I wonder WHY? Granted, the G37 is not an old beater with wheels that cost more than the entire car, but still. The OEM wheels seem pretty darn nice, particularly the 19"s.
Money to burn? Smart spending should always be a priority. I have found that those with money often spend it frugally. Not saying that they are not generous, simply smart shoppers.
Case in point, I was initially considering much higher end cars (the new M3, 911, C6 vert; to name just a few), but since I will avg 20k miles a year, I just couldn't justify the cost vs mile ratio (not to mention the reliablity history and issues with those makes) and the G37 will go from A to B with enough style and sport to meet my needs, and yes--with the 19"s. Then again, each to their own. Just my .02

Haha,
Listen, If someone wants to spend 5k+ on rims, LET THEM. Yeah the stock 19's on the G37 are attractive, but guess what? Aftermarket wheels are MORE attractive... It's a statement to modify your vehicle to differ you from the next man who has your same vehicle. But if your life is boring, and you dont care to be different, then don't mod the car, don't spend the money. It's a love of the hobby type thing.

Two words... "grow up". Sounds like compensating for a lack of something else.

You're telling me to grow up huh? Hmm.. How bout trying this, Try letting people make their own decisions. If they wanted smart money management advice, they would of asked for it for starters. If someone has money to burn, hey more power to them! ****, I'm smart with my money, I own my own business and have plenty of money to burn... I don't over spend on **** I know isnt worth it for number one, number two... I shop around because I know that I can more than likely find it priced somewhere else... No where am I defending "stupid money spending and management" BUT I do believe that people on here shouldnt be directing others about their personal finances. But I guess if you feel like you need to start slapping around the "mature stick" to make yourself look more mature, please feel free to do so. Whatever will make you feel good inside and have people on here liking you for.
