Volk 19" to Advan RS-D 20"

I just recently changed out my 19" Volk GT-S wheels for some 20" Advan RS-D's (in machined black). I wanted to go with something bigger, more aggressive and slightly more unique. I will get some real/better pics when the center caps arrive. I am also in the process of ordering some coilovers (Tein SS-P) and front control arms (need a tad more negative camber on the front driver side- I am rubbing a little there).

Specs:
Front: 20x9 +25 w/ 245/35/20 Yokohama S-drives (-1.65 degrees of camber on the drivers side, and -1.9 on the passenger side).

Rear: 20x10 +35 w/ 275/30/20 Yokohama S-drives (-1.65 degrees of camber on the rear now, but -1.5 in the pics-- I will probably go to -1.8 next time).

wheels look awesome! I'd get rid of the chrome piece on back/BO the emblem/BO lights, but a great looking ride so far

Wow HOT! Love everything you've done from the lip to the rear diffuser. The new wheels really pull the whole look together.

I love the Volk GT-S' but I must say, the Advans look so much better on your sedan.

Id leave it. It matches well with the chrome trim around his windows and the lips on the wheels and his grill.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

In regards to the chrome trim, I am still debating what I am going to do. I posted this on the G35 forum, but here is what I am thinking:

Paint the front headlights (gloss black, and leave chrome bezels) <---this will be done soon.
Paint the rear tail lights "GTR" style (gloss black with round cutouts for lights) <--still up in the air on this, the red tails are growing on me.
Paint all the chrome trim (gloss black door and trunk trim)
Paint the roof (gloss black)
Paint my spare grill all black to match trim (if I do the trim)
Shave the rear "Infiniti" and "G37S" logos

I am still not sure on the last 4 items. As mentioned, some of the chrome goes with the black and polished theme. I am pretty up in the air on these things right now.

Yes, it is the Invidia Gemini. I like it, but I scrape the resonators like crazy....

The GT-S's are probably my favorite wheel of all time. A classic. However, they don't come in 20's, and they did not have the offsets/sizes I was really after.
