Authentic OE Nismo Rays?

mikeb · 02-19-2019, 09:23 AM

Im interested in a set of 2013-14 nismo wheels in gunmetal. Looks like z1motorsport and a few others have them. Can anyone vouch that the Z1 wheels are Nissan OEM, not aftermarket ? I doubt any company duplicating a legit forged wheel but still like to hear from the forum

Z1 Motorsports is the Amazon of Z parts.

Except when it comes to free shipping and unbiased user reviews

Amazon has unbiased reviews?

Yes, the OEM Nismo wheels that Z1 sells are the legit Rays OEM wheels

Z1 is a legit company and the wheels are OEM.

The description even says "from the factory"

and if you needed more confirmation

they're using nissan factory part numbers

mikeb · 02-19-2019, 01:09 PM

well: Available from the factory on the true, 2013-2014 NISMO...
could be interpreted a couple of ways and ya I google the part numbers but its a lot of money to just trust a website. The forum vouches for z1 thou so Im good.

Z1 just buys them from Nissan, so if the there is a problem Z1 will tell you to call Nissan and handle the issue and Nissan will tell you call Z1 and handle the issue. That's what happened when I bought the 2015 Nismo Bumper.

No middle man direct from Nissan

Too bad those links say 'Out of Stock'

I'd check with local dealerships as well.
