Lesser of two evils.

I prefer the LOOK of the Varrstoens...

However I would rock my stock RAYS wheels until I can afford to get the proper ones.

The fact that the wheel is as flat as a frying pan.

To change to those from a Base wheel or stock Sport wheel IMO would be a downgrade.

Simply put... they are ugly and the sizes are really weak. 19x8.5 is smaller than the stock Sport wheel... What size tire are you going to run? A 225?

You can always be a set of used wheels......

Check craigslist, ebay, forum posts, etc. I see TE37s go up for sale every so often.

Another example: I just sold a set of 18" GT-C's in Mercury Silver with centre caps for $1000.

Next deal like that, I want in on.

Fair enough. I guess that is why the would go on my car not anyone else.

TSW recommends the 8.5 due to the offset. They said they will sit flush and mount the stock tire no problem.

djpathfinder · 02-21-2011, 07:31 PM

The TSW's would look nice too. If you could get a 19x9 +32 or 19x9.5 +26 for the front and 19x10.5 +16, that would fit quite well for a non-lowered 370Z and push the wheels a little more outward than stock (without sticking out).

The wheels in the picture look flat because the model they used was probably for a car with lots of (+) offset or perhaps from a FWD car.

Well I ordered the nurburgrings. I decided to go this route due to weight and they are different. I will post up pics Friday when they are on the car. Thanks to everyone.

Where did you end up ordering at? Which offsets did you end up getting? Looking forward to the pics.

Nele22 · 02-21-2011, 09:16 PM

Ordered them from KC Trends in Overland Park, KS. I have bought several sets of wheels from them. Went with 19x8.5 +20 up front and 19x10.5 +27 in back.
