Don't like those wheels. Atleast not in chrome. For $4000+ I would rather get something else.

Honestly, I still think they'd look better with a 1/2 inch lip, but they don't look bad. But I agree, $4000+ for wheels is ridiculous. $4000 is full exhaust, intake, tune, and better tires fully installed.

Perhaps you're referring to wheels with a polished lip? But definitely not a chrome wheel with no lip whatsoever. But if it fancies you, get it regardless what other people say.

Regarding xDiegox's statement referring to forced induction as a "Civic" status. Hopefully, you're just joking as many motorist utilize this method to achieve more horsepower/torque.

I think what he was trying to say was that unlike a civic, you can't get a forced induction setup on the 370z for $4,000.
