Rim Job

[phillydre]

Since I'm not the first owner of my 2006 M35X I've noticed some noise coming from the car when I would accelerate over 50mph. At first, I thought it might be the tires being unbalanced so I got that done but after further inspection from the mechanic he pointed out that 2 of my rims are bent The previous owner must have loved the curb so I now I have to get these replaced after buying brand new rubber! Any suggestions on the rims I should get? I was told the FX35 20inch look great on the M but wouldn't the weight difference alter the AWD system? HELP!

I have a set of FX35 20s laying around that I took off from My FX. I think the FX 20s will look like a bigger version of the older model 18s.

I've come across these recently and they look pretty sick: enkei akp black 20". Has anyone heard anything about them or has had them on their car?

It all depends on what you like.

I would just call and make sure they fit your car, they have lots of wheels all different offset.

just to give you an idea:

Not a bad-looking wheel.

I can get the LM BBS rep in front 20x8.5 & rear 20x10 shipped for $1,000

if you have an X and need all 4 wheels the same size 19x8.5 shipped for $750

it's a good looking wheel

I also found a set of Vertini wheels:

http://www.vertiniwheels.com/images/wheels/fairlady/fairlady.htm

all 4 wheels are 20x8.5" with 245/35/20 tires
price was $1350

 

[Sideways the Seven]

Not bad.
