Need help deciding between these 2 sets of wheels? Pictures included.

Finally getting ready to ditch the 16 inch peeling stockers. Im replacing them with some 18 inch rims, i came across these 2 sets that i fell in love with. One set is off a infiniti m35 and the other off a nissan 350z. Which do you preferr?

I was kind of thinking about that? Those infiniti wheels really have a unique style, i just gotta take the plasti dip off when i get them. Btw, both of the wheels are selling for $400, which makes my decision even harder.

I've never really liked those 350 wheels. They just look... Odd.

Im just sitting here thinking, those infiniti wheels would look great on our cars! Especially if the TL is slightly lowered(which i plan on doing).

My vote is for the m35 wheels. The 350z wheels are ugly af IMHO. But make sure they remove the dip BEFORE you buy. There is a good reason people dip their wheels. I dipped mine when they were scuffed to all hell, but removed the dip before selling.

Good point bro thanks for telling me, would have never thought about people dipping wheels to hide damage. But im more than likely gonna powder coat the wheels anyway. Im just thinking those wheels on my car, cant wait. Im so tired of the stock 16's!

Lollolol! I had that set on my maxima, they actually dont look too bad in person, that set is just missing the center caps which makes them look funny, im just cosidering cheaper alternatives, but my vote is still on the infiniti wheels.

make sure you get hub centric adapters if the center bore isn't the same.

+1 for 350z

Im kinna second guesing buying the wheels, i may just powder coat the stock wheels gloss black and wait on buying new wheels. That way i can $400 on other stuff for the car, like tint and lots of other stuff.

I would jump on those Infiniti wheels, and +1 for removing dip before purchase.

However, if you don't have tint yet, or if you're still running the stock red/amber taillamps, I would take care of those first.
Wheels are always available, but imo rims w/out tint looks awkward af
