New to Wheels and Tires
 

thinking about get some new wheels, but not sure how to go about buying them and where and how to install. any recommendations to where to go to in the OC? What tires and wheel companies do you guys prefer?

Check out Wheel Warehouse in Anaheim.

There are a lot of sponsors here on the forums that sell some great wheels and they always hook people up with great pricing for both wheels and tires. A few of them are located in the SoCal area. Check out the Vendor's Area The370Z.com Vendors and Sponsors - Nissan 370Z Forum

I'm not sure which ones are SoCal based off the top of my head but check out Amplified and AE Performance. I believe those guys are SoCal, so send them a PM or check out their websites and I'm sure they'll be able to help you find something nice.

Talk to VIP-STATUS if you want a wheel with a big lip, Talk to Forged Performance if you want some sick Volk Wheels.

Just an FYI when deciding on wheels: If you have crappy roads stick to 19's if you have good roads go to 20's. The 20's look phenomenal on this car! If you are curious on what width rims to get here are your limits typically for the 370z on normal sized tires not fully stretched:

Front:
9.5 +15
10 +22

Rear:
10.5 -7
11 -2
12 +10

*this is in relation to clearance to the outside fender wall and being flush with (-) camber*

If you have questions ask everyone here knows a lil about wheels and we can all help.

If you want Volk, you should get it now. Its price increases next month. You can get a good price on what are in stock. Check with Lou at Amplified Motorsport :tup:. I just ordered TE37 Ti Gunmetal from him.

I would go with the Advan RG-D or Volk VR G2's
Color is up to u!
