    the EVO 7 was not sold in the US so those particular wheels are not so readily available compared to the EVO 8, 9, and 10 (which were sold in the US).

    Look at the bottom two if the above pictures, they are on 350Z wheels, not G35 wheels.

    I was gonna say you had asked about 18"s not 17"s. Those are one of my favorite Nissan wheels as well. I would love to have these on my G.

    I think redrilled M3 CSL wheels would look good on the G. I was thinking my stocks on the F wouldnt look bad either.

    I have seen these rims on a 2g eclipse and they make it look so good.

    who said they were hard to find? finding the wheels is not the problem; it's getting them here that becomes more difficult. did u notice where that set physically was? the shipping itself would be as big of a problem as how much they were charging for the actual wheels. you commented you were surprised that more members here haven't gone that route and then by posting that link you answered yourself.

    And second they are being sold out of australia with a shipping quote to Boston, MA being $120 which is obviously according to you was a big problem. maybe next time you should look at what i posted and not jump to conclusions about why i posted it in the first place.

    And yes i was suprised that more people dont have them because i thought they looked great on the 8g platform. ( which is what i thought this thread was all about, commenting on which wheels we thought looked good) so how is posting a link to the wheels themselves answering myself??

    go review the thread... i never said they were hard to find... i said they were not as "readily available" since the EVO7 was never sold in the US so therefore there are not a bunch of spare EVO7 wheels here as compared to EVO8, EVO9, EVO10 etc.

    the shipping quote is from that seller? that's not bad at all. in my actual experience in getting parts from that hemisphere, it costs much more, not to mention customs... so now i'm curious where you got that quote from and if it is reliable. and since the link you posted shows the wheels for more than $2000 for stock wheels: that should answer you as to why more people haven't done it since EVO8+ wheels can be sourced here for much less. if you were going to prove a point, couldn't you at least find a better link (cheaper and local). if someone is going to spend $2000 on wheels alone, most likely they are already looking past stock EVO wheels.

    seriously are you really surprised that more 8G's are not on EVO7 wheels given that there are not more than a handful of EVO7's in the US (as they were never sold here) so as a result the supply of EVO7 wheels here is negligible? that rarity doesn't seem to you like an obstacle that would stop them from being a popular option? of course you can order them from other countries. you can order anything from other countries that had that car in their market, but is that as easy as picking up parts in the US from cars that were sold here?

    Honestly i wasn't trying to prove a point about the rims just showing a link that had them. I totally agree that $2,200 for those wheels is crazy especially when evo 8 and 9 wheels are selling locally for $400-$600. but since they are rare here in the US and not too many people have them or have even seen them,i wouldn't put it past anyone buying them. Especially when people are paying that for some aftermarket rims. I actually did get the quote by email through the seller just for laughs and was surprised at how cheap.

    The only reason why i was surprised that more people didn't have them is because of the way that most members will source in bumpers, headlights, tailights...etc. from overseas, but not those rims thats all. Wasn't looking to cause an uproar just thought they looked hot.

    That's because those wheels:
    Aren't that great looking
    Aren't that lightweight
    Are more expensive than better aftermarket wheels
