I know that they are not the best wheels for my car, but I already have them and I don't have the money to spend on nicer ones, My question is will they fit the stock tires and will they fit the car? please let me know what you guys think, good or bad, thank you.

Dude totally put those on!!! If you are trading for a scion?

Man I gotta tell ya...it's hard to put anything other than stock on your car when with some scrimping and scraping your ride can look like Kevr6s!!

So 800 w/out tires and i've got 1500 worth of tires on them 700 for the front and 800 for the back michelins so....

1600 for all shipped on your dime or local pickup within 150 miles of Raleigh NC or I will be at ZdayZ in western NC later this month and you can pick them up there. I should have the car trailered and the other set of wheels by then.

damn that's not bad, let me think about it, but don't hold them for me, I just finished talking to tonny from FI and it looks like I'm getting a CB exhaust.

Reach out to Kevr6 and find out what his mods are.

Kev's ride is definitely beautiful but my Z was bought to be motored pretty hard on all street surfaces so looks quite different.

even my summer dd (lowered G35C) is not dat low. I rarely scrape. Im tired of slowing down for bumps and dips especially the expressway dips we have here... kev's car will shatter.

Well it helps that he's in the Atlanta area where the surface roads, while not as good as they are here in Florida...are NOWHERE near as bad as New York!

Edit: Ken..where are you based out of? I naturally assumed NY.

i question my friends that slam their cars in nyc when they know just as well as i do that the roads are horrible. there were times that i'm not as focused as i should be on the road and hit a pothole and thought that i woulda been screwed if i were slammed or aggressively dropped. i need my car functional. granted there are people who like the 'low n slow' style but i cant imagine myself driving 15mph everywhere i go, especially in a z. i've already heard of a few cases of cracked open oil pans from riding slammed here. i ask them, y not just raise it an inch, and they respond saying it'll look retarded then. i have to disagree if you cant ride more than 15mph and looking out for every crack on the road, speed bumps, potholes, etc.
1 was driving home with my friend with a evo x, and 2 other guys in slammed civics. i told them just follow me onto the LIE highway since it should be along the way anyways. they said they couldnt cause the grooves on parts of that highway will scrap and crack their oilpans. i just sighed in my head and waited for them to find an alternative route on their phones. i intend to eventually drop in coilovers, but i'll wait until nyc is done fixing the roads that were destroyed after this past winter.
