we try the 19x9.5et22 already and it still sit in so much.remember that the 370z take much more lower offset.+17 and +22 is only 5mm.
there is so many tire size you can use for the front.and if you lower the 370z you will see that the +22 will be inside.try it and take some pictures.
we've been doing this for more then 10years.:tup:

I dont think so...I wasnt trying to go 'hella flush' or anything but up front with a 19x9.5 +22 with a 275 tire I was rubbing at anything lower than what I am at right now (which is still pretty low). I think the reason why you guys think this is OK, is because your going crazy with the stretched rubber band tires...

If that what people want then fine, but your throwing away at least half the reason why you probably bought the car for - performance - If you look at volk they are going with much higher offsets in the front to allow people to run PROPER tires.

The rear is another story, you can definitly go crazy back their and still fit some crazy rubber!

Does anyone know of a website that sales these rims?

They don't make venaci wheels anymore because all venaci wheels are WORK wheels that they put different center caps on. Big scam, long story, best to stay away. if you like the style look into real Work wheels.

This is a joke bro...no need to bash Venaci when you don't know all the facts. As they say, there's two sides to every story...

And as for Venaci Wheels being a scam and not available anymore...that's funny, cuz I have a set of Venaci Wheels on my Z right now...and a new set coming within a few weeks (and neither are Work Wheels w/ different center caps). So please stop spreading false rumors. If you have nothing productive to say...post elsewhere. :tiphat:

VIP Status Wheels Issue - Page 3 - MY350Z.COM Forums

There are tons more threads like these.

I wonder where u heard about a lawsuit...or if it's just another rumor by someone w/ nothing better to do than stir the pot. If you knew the facts, the lawsuit would be the other way around. In any case, I'm not basing my opinions on forum heresay; but my actual recent experience w/ Venaci Wheels. And I have no skin in this game...just trying to prevent fallacies from being spread.

Well i'm glad he has taken care of you but it seems your 1 happy customer for every 100 unhappy customers. Then again you know him personally so yes you are a bit bias on this subject. The way he runs his buisness is the classic definition of a poncey scheme. Just warning people, if they still would like to do business with him go right ahead.

Funny how people still talk about this lol.
Well since i work in helping rick put his Z together in the past.This is from what i saw with the whole wheel's thing.

Work Japan first wanted rick/venaci to start marketing there new wheel line Gnosis when they first came out in 2008 or 2009.Because japan wheels sales drop with many U.S Forged wheels was going into japan.
So they came out with the Gnosis line.Cheaper cast wheels that look like 3pc forged.
They told him that he can use the Gnosis line and they can make him any name center caps he wanted.
And that's what Work wheels do in japan for years when it come's to private Lable for tuning companys,body kits companys in Japan.Same with SSR and Rays/Volk Racing.

So after 3 years that rick/venaci did all the marketing.At the time same Work/Gnosis wheels start leaking into the U.S,as Gnosis with Gnosis caps.
Rick/Venaci orders started to slow down and get delay,at the same time Gnosis order was getting made and getting into the U.S market.

The same way works with many U.S Forged wheels manufacturer, wheels are sold with different caps.Same with cast wheels,there is so many that looks the same,but with different caps.

This sale strategy with Japan companys has been done in the past many time over the years,but people in the industry knows.
Pretty much Japan saw that there was a market for the Gnosis line now,and there's is no need for rick/venaci now.
So from the last time i saw rick/venaci at Sema,he told me that they stop everything from japan and is now working in 1pc ,3pc Forged now.
I think there is a few out there,that's he's testing the market.

But then there's more to the story,but it's something be hide the industry.
Never heard anything about a law suit.But If there were any? it would be the other way around.lol
Its like selling guns to the good guy and bad guy.lol :P
Just what i know and saw.:tiphat:

Actually that made a lot of sense..

At least it makes more sense than a lot of the assumptions and accusations made towards vip status and the venaci line.
