Pics of my 99 Q45t

Hello Everyone,

This is actually my first time posting here and would like to introduce myself. My name is Anthony and I currently drive a 1999 Infiniti Q45t (black on black). I've been working on this project since July when I picked up the car. When I originally bought the car I had already decided that I was gonna go for the VIP look. Thanks to Kennedy and his team at Platinum VIP in Irwindale, CA...I think I was able to achieve the that look. The car is sporting the JDS complete kit from Car Studio Japan. I currently work for VIP Forged Modular wheels and we decided to go with the blacked out theme of the car. We went with a custom texted bronze finish on the center and a custom wrinkle flat black lip. We decided to go with a 22" wheels or the 20's because we wanted to think outside the box a bit. We first tried on 20s but thought that the gap could be filled in a bit more...lol! It was a tight fit but it worked and I'm glad we did it...lol :biggthumpup:. We were able to fit a 22x9.5 on the front with a 3.5" lip and a 22x11 in the rear with a 5" lip. For suspension...I'm sorta embarrassed to say is pretty much stock. The car is only lowered on Tein S-tech springs :pat:. Anyways, here are some pics of the car that I took on the way home from Wekfest this past weekend. Let me know what you think.


Thanks!

What up homie!!! It's Poges (guy with the guy who picked up the lineas from chris). You're right, definitely not what I thought it was gonna look like. When I saw it in the pics from wekfest I thought it was a 7. Haha. But yeah clean as hell. Just go lower and I think it'll be straight. See u when I see u. Peace

Your Q goes hard!!! I'm runnin 22's on my 1999 Q45 too and i got some questions for ya mine are 22 x 9.5 all around the back was no problem but the front rubbed the bottom of the strut like crazy so i got coilovers for the front and run tein s-techs in the rear. Tires are 245/30 how did you get yours to fit stock?

I had to run a 235/30/22...it was really close but it worked :shrug:. I needed the stretch on the tire to clear the stock tower that you're talking about. Like you, I too will be going coilover soon to be on the safe side.

Diggin the black out look. Looks mean! But personally 22s is way too big for my taste. I had 20s and that was koo but for my taste 19s on a Q is PERFECT not too big not too small, but that's me. Props to you for sticking to your own style and what you want to do.....and welcome

Thanks Pancakes!!! I was originally gonna go with 20's but we just happened to have 22's lying around and we just tried them out and I guess you could say the rest was history...lol!!! I appreciate the words of encouragement from you and from everyone else! :biggthumpup: Hopefully there will be more to come!
