They are awesome! Also, what kinda chrome is that? It looks dark, not like the usual high glossy chrome.

They are S.B.C. = Super Black Coat, I think some people also refer them as Super Black Chrome. Anyhow, they are REALLY REALLY nice.

they do looks awesome but u said they were going on a g35, those cars have lower offsets than our cars so they get bigger lips than us, can our cars get that kind of lip? its something u guys should look into b4 u place an order thinking u'r getting that kind of lip..it is very nice tho..

BlueLex is right. G35 definitely has different offset than our GS. I will try to find out what kind of lip we can get on our car. I will probably order a set for my car soon....

wow those wheels are absolutely beautiful. I have never really been a fan of mesh wheels b/c of its huge popularity making it so common. But these are just .... especially w/ that dark finish. You gotta keep that lip IMO. but those..... wow THOSE!!! those are definitely droolz!!!!

is there any way to get a finish like that w/ a goldish tint? I dont want full on bronze coat but I want a bronze-ish chrome tint.... anybody know? if I can get that then I will have to switch up on my wheels.

Very nice! That's a true $20 lip action, unlike some a$20 action I've seen posted, but only worth $10.
