Nissan 370Z Forum  

Are subtle upgrades such as lighter tires and exhaust worth the money?

Lol piece of crap? I assume you are talking about yourself. Hey, maybe I will. Don't see anything wrong with the rims at all.

There's a pandemic? No **** Sherlock. Tell us something we don't know. Why did you edit and delete your previous posts? No one is setting money on fire. A few of the guys here even suggested that some upgrades for your own personal taste is worth it.

In the Journey trim, most likely base calipers sitting on 17 in oem rims.

OP, on wheels, oem G37 coupe 19’s are popular with sedan owners. G35 Rays also can be had for cheap (don’t know why, they are lightweight forged Rays after all).

If you want OEM 18’s, those are even cheaper, and you won’t lose your butt off if you decide to sell them later.

Heck, even 350z wheels are viable options. If you can score some 18 in track edition Rays especially.

If you go the OEM G37 coupe wheels route, beware that rear wheels from convertible have much lower offset, more than 10mm difference, like a -30 vs -45 or -42.

Of course he remembers. He can read my posts. I'll consider it, no need to beg.

I will keep that in mind. Thanks. I actually prefer the styling of the 18s that came with the Sport Sedan. I saw a website that offers OEM rims. I will see if they have 19s available and I will compare them to the previous rims I liked.

You are as dumb as you sound. Look up the word begging, and you will learn that not a single person begged on this thread.

To answer your question, it is you who has a problem. You deleted and edited your previous replies with condescending answers, and now you are playing the victim like a woman.

Just because something looks good to you, does not mean it looks good in the perspective of the next person. Looks are entirely subjective if you didn't know moron.

Lol! Holy dog **** 20s and 18s? Those aren't even close enough to compensate for your "tiny" problem Mr. Chow.

Bottom end or not, they look pretty damn good.

Take a breather, I was just busting your little balls lol. Go cry in the car that you put so much effort in. After all, it is obvious that it is the only good thing going for you.

Last time I checked, I started this thread. So you get the **** out of here and take your 2 inch tootsie roll else where. Lol.

2" tootsie roll....


The level of comebacks here are on the level of some of the users on Fakebook.



Hmmm... another one for the iggy list. Good grief.
