eh Minicobra, those are some really nice set of wheels. Excellent touch on the Nismo's for a non-Nismo 370z. And in Matte Black too! One of my favourite colours :) ... What are the specs for those Nismo wheels? Also what kind of tires are you running? What are their sizes?

Again wonderful work on those wheels :) Cheers!

your 370z really looks nice with the nismo wheels in black. i have a 2010 370z nismo and looking to powder coat my wheels as well. i live in southern cal and would really appreciate if you could send me the information of the shop that did your wheels. if you don't mind. thanks

im looking for this same look on my nismo rims. where did you get them done

Here is the place: Embee Performance - Powder Coating in Orange County

Embee Performance in Santa Ana. It's a really big facility, they do a lot of OEM wheels for other rim manufactures, they really know what they are doing. :-)

Hey, sorry I haven't been on this forum in awhile, I sold my 370z 3 months ago :-(
But it's ok, because I replaced it with a 2012 Shelby GT500 :-)

Anyway, here are the specs for the wheels:

Front: 19x9.5 +40 20.7lbs. Tire: Hankook Ventus V12 255/35/19
Rear: 19x10.5 +23 23.0lbs. Tire: Hankook Ventus V12 305/30/19

I was also running wheel spacers (15mm front - 15mm Rear)

No rubbing issues whatsoever. :-)

To the OP: I have the 370Z sport package 19" wheels with 15mm front/20mm rear spacers from Stillen. If I want the Nismo wheels do I need to replace the front and rear spacers to 10mm front/15mm rear?

Thanks...

looks good

I had 20mm spacers on the rear when I had the 275 tires, but when I switched to 305/30/19 tires, I just thought it stuck out a little too far for my taste.
I ended up putting the 15mm spacers on the rear, and thought it looked better. (the pics that are posted have the 15mm with 305 tires)

Probably more of a personal choice, I would just try the 20mm first to see if you like them, you can always get some 15's later.

Spacers on Nismo wheels make the car look perfect

sboden 11-11-2011 11:06 AM

Exactly what I'm looking for in the future. springs and spacers next and then looking at coating the wheels.

Awesome set-up and a beautiful car!

Newbie question - will the tires that come standard with a Sport Package fit on the Nismo rims? My tires only have 1,100 miles on them, and I'd hate to have to get rid of them if I decide to purchase some Nismo rims that I'm looking at.
