Default G35 rims on GS

The other day I was visiting my friend's performance shop and a black GS drove into their driveway. I quickly looked and noticed that it was stock but something was different about the rims. I looked a second time and noticed that he had G35 rims on it. I thought it looked ok but I think he should at least take the infinity emblem off the rim.

I was then told by my friend that the guy (with the black GS) dissed my car badly. He said that it was the worst GS he had ever seen and that the only thing good on my GS was the rear spoiler. He said the rims I had were not cool (Work Equips) and that my front bumper was not original (custom one off with TTE lip) I guess to each his own. But now since he thinks my Equips were not cool I will sell em for 2 dollars plus shipping. (LOL) Because I gotta get some infinity wheels on my Lexus.

take it easy on the mods guys

Aloha

Thumbs down crazy

That guy has NO clue dude. WORK rims are recognized as 1 or the BEST!! WORK EQUIPS are HOT!
He has no clue. I'm not surprised tho.

Ricky...

Was this guy young, middle-age, or old? Just wondering what kind of freak would think like that. I bet he wouldn't have say that in front of you.

Hmmmm...a black GS with G35 wheels....wow....what are ppl thinking these days?! Is that the next trend in modding...take stock parts from other cars...and installing them? Mismatching emblems?

Ricky,

if this guy only knew. Most of the mods you have on your car I wish i had those on mine. As far as the other GS guy with the g35 rims like how you said to each their own. Damn if he said that about your car he would just probably straight up bust a gut if he saw my car. Take it easy out there guys. So when are we playing basketball again.



Peace

Yo Rick,

I know exactly the car you are talking about... His friend has a pretty nice G35 with a nice body kit and some nice but not my style chrome giovanni five spoke wheels... I see those two cars together all the time so I just assumed the G35 guy just gave his wheels to the GS guy...

And by the way I totally agree with that GS guy your Work wheels suck and are totally ugly... you should just dump them at my house and I will take care of them for you.... Yeah, and eventhough I see your car every week I still don't mind watching it roll....

See you this week.

I am having a ball with this one. I couldn't help but laugh. Oh well, I think it's time to move on.

But seriously, I am contemplating buying a Nissan Armada. I like the looks and the power to boot. If I do, then my ugly GS and it's rims are up for grabs.

aloha and thanks for making me smile and enjoy my ride again

This is just too funny.....

It's like that kid(10 years old) I saw the other weekend and his friends whom walked by and saw my car.....

He wisely said to his friends "God, he should've got some Giovanna rims."

I couldn't stop laughing....

Comes to show that the media and good marketing is indeed a very powerful influence..
