I don't know about you guys, but that Brown contrasted with the bronze-gold lettering on the badges is sweet!

Yes I agree ,looks classy1

 

[Cgo]

Yea, agree with you there.

Couple of different things on that car:
Side skirts
Rear spoiler (I think)
Genesis wing badge on rear door

What market would that car be from?

Those side skirts and spoilers are available online.

Also, looks like the car is wrapped in Xpel Stealth to give it a mat finish. That brown is available in non US markets.

He sure did. First person on the forum to do so, IIRC.

Cool because that's what I ordered... lol

So, I'm sorry I don't have pictures of these wheels on a G70, but I was hoping people could chime in and tell me what they think of them.

I would have a local shop paint them metallic hyper black, so they'd be very similar to the stock Sport 5 spoke rim color and finish.

My car is Santiago Silver. Here is a silver Corvette with those rims - posting to show the contrast between the rim color and body color (though mine wouldn't be black, but similar)...

Lastly, a rep responded to my email and told me they weight between 22 and 23.5lbs, which is right about 10lbs lighter than my OEM wheels.

Thoughts?

Those wheels look awesome!

(PSA side-note: On my 15 5.0, when I went back to the stock rims, I noticed that the car was much quieter and transmitted a lot less road noise. But my aftermarket wheels were gorgeous. Also if you're going lower profile than stock, highly recommend you keep your stock rims in case you bend/damage your aftermarkets by blowing out two tires on a back-road where they left a 3 inch wide cable ditch going across a road where the speed limit is 65. Ask me how I know about this).

I've been going back and forth on which wheels I want that fit the character of the G70 design... ugh!

I've narrowed it down to about three. One of my contenders is back ordered for several months. My car isnt a DD, so these wheels arent going to just be for a winter swap. My car hibernates once salt goes on the roads.

What do you think of these? Will be 20x8.5 F and 20x10 R.

These look nice. I love the 10 spoke design. I would suggest a gunmetal or Titanium color finish rather than a black to compliment the tinted chrome. Although the black would look great contrasting to the white as well. Just depends how many contrasts you want.

Look forward to your final choice and photos.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Kinda wish the spokes were thicker/wider. Even so, I'm beginning to really lean towards getting them. I'll continue to look a bit more to see if there is anything else that I like better, if not, I think I'll get em.

Thanks for the response!

I too am getting Ace Alloys, but the AFF 05s. I did consider these too but after looking at tons of them on other cars, decided that they didnt fit the character of the G70. They look good on Mustangs and Challengers though.

Hard to say. My car is Siberian ice, so it's a weird color. My Sport wheels are almost black and they dont match anything on the car. The black wheels will match the black roof and B pillars at least. They only come in black chrome which would closer match the dark chrome trim but are too blingy, silver, or gloss black. Thanks for the input!

Heres kinda what they would look like on a lowered G70 in 20"

So, I was just about to order the Ace Alloy AFF05s and I came across this wheel. Standard colors are dual brushed gunmetal, matte bronze, and dual brushed bronze. What do you think?

Like. In gunmetal. On your car and with car color, dunno

Brushed bronze on SI would look great, imo. Otherwise gunmetal rims are foolproof for basically any color

Outstanding. My vote is for those.

Well, thanks for your opinions folks! I just ordered my wheels and tires. The winner is... none of the ones I posted! ;-) I'm taking a gamble and going with my gut instincts. I hope to have them and on the car by Thanksgiving. My springs are going in now followed by an alignment. Fingers crossed they fit and look good. GetYourWheels helped a ton and assure me they will fit. Will see.

I looked at these as well in the dual brushed gun metal. In person they are a sexy wheel and would look great on the g70.

Do you have any wheel shops around where you can go in and have them hold some rims up to the car so you can see what it looks like in real life?

Either of the two wheels you are considering would look awesome. Good luck.

See my post above... I put an order in but none of the wheels I've posted about. ;-)
