Nice wheels, i really like the look of the fronts, the rears look awkward with that huge sunken in lip... just my opinion.

Solus · 05-06-2009, 06:36 PM

Thanks

nogoodname · 05-06-2009, 06:42 PM

just get some spacers and it will look sharp, like half inch or something

Maybe a bad idea? Hell I don't know but I think they look good.

Those tire sizes, while obviously compatible, seem to be at very edge of being too narrow for the rim width. Do they fit well?

nogoodname · 05-06-2009, 06:49 PM

the stock rims are sunken in also. so, pretty same thing

whatever, the rims look sharp....... so, gonna buy Bat's head light overlays??

westpak · 05-06-2009, 08:31 PM

personally I would have gone with a 15 offset to bring them out a bit more in the rear, and also go with 295's to avoid the stretched tire look

As for the style it is not my favorite for a sports car, too many spokes.

+1 the wheel itself looks cool but the stance is weak, and also a +1 on maybe a spacer making the stance look better.

Not my liking but good for you to get something you like.

Solus · 05-06-2009, 11:33 PM

I am going to get the spacers tomorrow lol. I talked to a guy and he said I shouldn't have to worry about throwing any rocks or anything and hitting my bumper and what not. As far as the tires go, I was thinking about going a little wider once I wear these out (which shouldn't take too long lol).

As far as the headlight overlay's goes.. I remembered hearing about them but couldn't remember who had them or the cost? I want to either get overlays or get mine painted..

AK370Z · 05-07-2009, 12:26 AM

I like them.

Did you lower your car or running stock height? Take a rolling/driving video of your 370Z. I think your rims will look really good in motion.

Solus · 05-07-2009, 06:13 AM

Still stock height (for now anyways) I will try to get a rolling video of it whenever the rain lets up.

westpak · 05-07-2009, 07:28 AM

here is a rolling shot a friend of mine took with same style but polished lip

And this to show they are the same style

RCZ · 05-07-2009, 11:16 AM

Wow...that puts a new spin on things..

DannyGT · 05-07-2009, 11:36 AM

You think? Thats what correct offset + lowered suspension does for those wheels!

Much better on your friends car.
