Hmm. I'm asking around right now but so far it's not looking good.

It would all happen at a performance shop. I wouldn't just get a random person to do it.



In other news, I get to ride in a GTR soon.

He is a little slow replying I PMed him a long time ago and wanted him to join my 370z Car Club in Chicago and he still hasn't attended anything

On a side note, is 3000 a good deal?? how much are they from Z1?

Not a great deal since he took off the tpms, but not too bad. I'm just worried he put on some junk rubber valve stems on there...

Sad though cause I couldve bought it tonight even. But now I'm going to probably pass and get a more expensive wheel set like the ones I got my G35C on my Z.

Yah, definitely in the same league as ur 40th wheels as far as exclusivity.

Honestly speaking, I think the 40th wheels look better than the nismo wheels.

my weds at 22-23lbs and 26lbs tires are about 49lbs max vs 55lbs stock. that's 6lbs lighter per corner. that i can obviously feel in braking.
Why do you want another set of wheels again? The Weds are
