2013 wheel image 18" anyone?
 
are the 18"s and 19"s gonna look exactly the same? does anyone have a pic of the car with the 18" wheels? please post if you do. also, can anyone tell me how the car will behave differently without VLSD? i mean obviously it will decrease wheel slip on launch, but will the base model only spin one tire? sorry im a noob.

2013 19"s are slightly changed, no clue about the 18s. And as far as VLSD.. Don't sweat it, you can always install a better LSD if you go base.

Yes whoever finds a pic of this please post up, interested to see this as well. :tup:

I agree. I'm not a fan of the "tornado wheel".

Edit: however after seeing that up close pic. They have done a good job of not making it look ugly. I'm sure it will grow on me. I mean I hated the look of the 370 when it first came out.

I didn't want to make him feel bad if he liked them. Haha

Besides he could have just googled 2013 rims to find a picture.

those arent bad, if the 18"s are like that i could live with it at first. i hear most people saying they are not into it. im sure i will get something else before long. i read that in june the 13's will be available. not sure how accurate that is since i forgot where i read it lol.

DLSTR 03-01-2012 02:59 PM

I like the new wheels and the new update of the 13. I want the new red w sports in 13. Just might get it.

Haven't seen pics yet, but they definitely did say there were new 18s.

The 350z had much better looking base wheels. Our base wheels look like they belong on a base mazda 3.

Funny you say that as I saw a base black 370 in Plano with 06-08 350 rims on it, it looked much better on it than the 370 base rims does.

They shoulda saved themselves a few bucks and carried them over. When I bought sport. I know I was going for brakes and rims. The vlsd is good on the street but can stand to do a lot better for the track. If I could only afford a base or base touring and no sport??? I would have ended up in a camaro SS or EVO. The base wheels are ugly enough to be a dealbreaker imo... Lol.
