or yes I have a few laying around let me take ur money and u can have one..

please pm me pictures and prices.
looking for the new nismo wheel look or other styles too just not the flat bottom tho, not into that.

Just as a warning to anyone who is wanting the Nismo wheel, Alcantara type materials wear extremely quickly from my experience. If you search the web you'll find this to be pretty normal. My stock Nismo wheel showed serious wear on my Z after about 9k miles, so much so that Nissan offered to replace it under warranty without me asking because it was looking so crappy. My girl has a Juke Nismo, for normal daily driving only, and her's is wearing down as well at 12k miles and will be ugly by 20k at my estimation. When Alcantara wears down it looks like colored cardboard, extremely freaking ugly IMO. As much as I love the feel I would never buy a wheel with Alcantara on the sides.

Thanks for the tip. Definitely makes me reconsider the idea of an alacantara wheel.
