Are we getting tired of the Rays 19s?
 
Looks like we have a lot of wheels and tires for sale lately? Is the novelty dying? :)

No way man, I love them. Gotta be one of my favorite features. I really don't like the look of the car with other wheels, even the base. They fit so perfectly IMO.

m4a1mustang 03-14-2010 01:16 PM

I love them. Just thinking of whether or not I want to powdercoat them eventually.

I think I want to go for that F430 Scuderia look with the gunmetal wheels, headlight housings, and door handles. I think that'd look pretty nice. :)

Best Factory Z Rim — EVER!
 
Nissan got it right from the get-go versus immediately searching for an aftermarket replacement. Kudos to Nissan for probably the best factory rim ever sold on a Z car. :tup:

Exactly -- I think it's rare for a car in our price range to come with rims like these. They were made for this car.

I remember with both my Mustangs I really didn't want to keep the OEM wheels for very long... though I did like the Bullitts on my GT, I just wanted them in deep dish. :)

It is nice that all posters still like the 19 Rays. But, to be open-minded, we (the minority perhaps) 'still' like the design.

Obviously, the ones that have them for sale would probably not post to this thread due to discretion.

I just could not help noticing about the 'for sale' ones.

ejrives 03-14-2010 03:24 PM

I'd never give my rays up . I love them -- go nissan!

kevr6 03-14-2010 03:29 PM

I love the stock wheels for both base sport and NISMO 370Zs. I will keep my stock wheels for sure, but I always personalize every car I have, so currently running some different wheels. All and all the stock wheels are indeed hard to improve on!!

They're still sweet..

resdm50 03-14-2010 04:10 PM

I think they are one of the best parts of the car. Now if only they wouldn't chip so easily, lol.

steveg78 03-14-2010 04:23 PM

I like my Rays and I don't plan on changing them out. But I must say the Volk GT-30s in formula silver look like a natural fit on the 370. Kudos to KaienZ34, this is his car.

I like my wheels but I LOVE the stock NISMO wheels.

GTRFAN 03-14-2010 08:13 PM

If anyone is the US is tired of their 19" wheels, please forward them to me. I will give them a good home. :)

Westwood 03-14-2010 08:36 PM

yeah they look good and i will keep em but im a twanties fan, gotta have my 20's

kenchan 03-14-2010 08:41 PM

i too like the stock sport wheels so unless something happens to them i cant see myself getting aftermarket wheels.

KillerBee370 03-14-2010 08:47 PM

Dayumm! Still after these in Australia huh? I sold mine to someone in Australia for a mint as soon as I got my aftermarket wheels. Paid for shipping and everything.

I think it was a big mistake to not offer these on the Australian spec Z. :confused:

Love my stockers. I keep looking at other wheels but never find one that I like better than the stockers. Right now, just to have a different look, I'm thinking of going with the 40th anniversary wheels on my yellow Z. Still the same 19' rays, just darker.
