Default ReLexin's Infiniti "G" on 22"s

Hey, I just wanted to stop back by to show you guys my Infiniti. I miss my IS a little, well just the color mainly and the gas mileage and clublexus!!! You guys are all great! The infiniti clubs are nothing compared to here.
Well here is a few pics of the Infiniti. I put it on 22"s with 245/30/22 rubber. I think it looks pretty mean. Let me know what you guys think.

Rims: Defy 22x7.5
Tires: Wanli 245/30/22
offset: +35
No rubbin at all.

Looks like your car wants to be a 4x4 when it grows up. I completely fail to see the benefit of this...looks ridiculous, screws acceleration, makes the ride horrible, increases unspring weight, increases the likelihood of damage due to poor road conditions, increases the cost and wear rate of tires, throws your speedometer and odometer off, and screams, "Hey, I'm ghetto!"

Other than that, nice G!

Welcome back to CL, *cough* Best forum on the internet*cough*


I gotta say DAMN those are some big rims!!


I bet it would look 10X better with a kit that sits low or makes the car look lower, then those big 22s will just blend in!

A little too big for my taste, but it doesn't look as odd as on some other cars. I think if you had a body kit it would actually look pretty good. For me, I'd stick with 20" rims. The G does have a big enough body that it doesn't look too bad at all.
