Those are pretty sweet. Similar to what I will likely purchase. How much do the wheels weigh?

I'd be lost if I had somewhere to be!

Thanks. Lots of internal debating on which wheels to get. Style and weight both important!

Really undecided at this point. Need to save up the cash before I get too excited about it.

I think I am going with 17's. I really like the BBS RGRs

Those look really nice. Do they offer them with the Antracite (sp?) spokes and a polished lip??? That would make then top of my list, though they are a little heavy. I would want something in the sub-20 lbs range. Don't want to be killing my performance with good looking wheels....

Mind letting us know the price of the whole package???

Infiniti G35 Coupe/Laser Red/18" wheels/Brembos/

'05 MCS, Hyper Blue/Blue, Prem., Sport, Cold, LSD, 6MT.

Anthracite

No Anthracite but the R90 has Anthracite with a slight polished lip. Flip Wasp has what you are looking for. My set up about $2000.....

rioman they look superb mate, congrats.

I really wanted to get ASA AR1s for my MCS, but for some reason they appear unavailable for import into Australia. It was then I stumbled across the R90 replicas I have now. ASA AR1s are the bomb though, nice work.



Cheers Liam
