Looking to buy new wheels
 

i have a base model 370z platinum graphite and just looking for a good wheel for around 2 grand i really like the design of vertini magic but is more for bmws help me find some alternativeshttp://vertiniwheels.com/images/whee...cBLK-2-big.jpg

check out Vossen wheels. They may be a bit more Expensive but they have a nice selection. I think alot of ppl are waiting for the CV3's to come out but i love my CV2's :)

If you're are considering Volks TE37's I can sell you the rear's for a good deal. Then you would only have to find yourself 2 fronts...

^^ :icon17:

Yeah I checked out vossen didn't really like them

I just ordered a set of Forgestar f14s. Great price, beautiful wheel. Plus custom made to order with lots of available finishes. Check em out.

does anyone know if vossen still makes the vvs-094

Nice wheel what size are you going with? semi concave or deep concave? can you run 245/45-19 front, 275/40-19 rear on these?

PM RavSpec....They have a huge showroom, great prices and quick delivery on their wheels. I got my wheels from them and was very satisfied.

for your budget forgestars are a great call.

:tup:

I went with 19x9 front and 19x11 rear. Front wheels reg concave and rear wheels deep concave. Yea you can put those tyres on them. I went with 255/30/19 front and 295/30/19 rear. I also ordered the wheels in the "bronze burst" colorway :)

What's the wait on them right now? Im toying with getting some in that color.

The 19x11s are on backorder so they said 5-7 weeks :( I went through eric at getyourwheels.com. Nice guy, great price.

bummer. I don't wanna wait that long.

Me neither, especially cause my rear tyres r destroyed and I cant drive my Z till my rim/tyre package shows up! Itll all be worth it though, the wheels r gonna b sick

Alchemy,
My car is stock, you think I can run 255/30/19 front and 295/30/19 rear with out needing spacers or any other modification? In fact what is the best wheel/size combo one can do with the cars stock suspension/springs for performance / aesthetic purposes? all opinions welcome,

Fern im not positive but I think u should be able to put those tyres on there no prob. I know some people put 305's on the stock rear rays.

So stock no drop or any other mods If i go
20x9+20x11, I can run tire sizes 245-35-20+285-30-20 without any problem right?
I heard I can go 255-30-20+305-25-20 but i think that's pushing it.

by mods i mean spacer, springs, or coil overs

I'm running 255/35/20 and 305/30/20 on a x9 and x10.5 u could run 315 on a x11 :)

U shouldnt have a prob but you will wanna research what offset you will need on those rims for the right fitment. With the right offset there will b no probs fittin any of those tyre sizes.

looks like ill most likely be getting the f14s now to find the right offset for 20"s

Why 20's?

more show then go is my plan on this car

If i want more performance than aesthetics (or go) would 19's be a better option than the 20's?

19's will out perform 20's and 18's out perform 19's. For all out performance go 18, for all out looks go 20 and for a mix of both go 19.

Thanks Alchemy 19's it is, with the right tire I can get the look on 19's and not sacrifice on performance, I would love 20's but my Z is my daily driver so I always take performance into consideration.

I would have loved to get 18's but they just look too small. Im all about performance, but I just had to sacrifice a bit and go 19. Do you ever plan on lowering? If so make sure you take that into consideration when deciding upon offsets.

Going with the F.I. TDX CBE with CF mufflers, since the mufflers sit pretty low definitely not planning on lowering.

yeah i plan on getting swifts once i move back to texas so i have considered that into the right offsets

Forged wheels are expensive, might take me a while to save up and buy them, but while save, I will continue to research if going with 19x9+19x11
what is the optimal tire size combo (front/back) to go with, 255-35-19+285-35-19 sound right?

Those sizes work. Id go bigger on the rear though, 295 or 305 :)

alchemy whats the biggest tire i can run in a 19 X 9? can i go 275/35/19? if so then I'll go 305/35/19 on the rear.

I'm also wondering the same thing. I've got the Forgestars on order in 19x9 and 19x11. I've decided on 305/30/19 for the rear, and am stuck between 255/35/19 and 265/30/19 for the fronts, can't decide!

Either should work, I went 255.

Would 305 on the rear and 255 on the front be proportional or would it look weird

Might look a little better w 265's. If your going big w 305 in rear might as well go 265 front

Just sucks that the Hankook V12's don't come in a 265/35/19

They have 265/30/19 &305/30/19. Nothing wrong w those.

I decided to stick with 265/35/19 F + 285/35/19 R, as far as my wheel I went with 19 X 9.5 F + 19 X 10.5 R. I was also aware that the V12's didn't come in the 265/35/19, so If available i'm going with the Michelins PSS's.
