Nissan 370Z Forum  

down to two choices now for rims.......

Though I'm not a big fan of the SSR's, the TE37 have been long played out, no?

played out or not, they are lightweight and attractive wheels.

I vote TE-37, go silver for a clean look, black for aggressive.

I don't think the TE-37 will ever look bad. +1 for TE-37

i found out that volk makes a special color called magnesium blue for the te37's which is the color in the above photo, the bad thing is that it reminds me alot of black rims and im not black rim type of guy.......but i gotta admit the rims DO LOOK GOOD with the grey 350z in the photo so im thinking it will look good on my car too.....what u guys think? this is a color im thinking about getting

I was looking at the two same wheels. The sp1 are more bling but cost about $700 less than Volks. I would get te37 but with a big lip.

I think the ssr look slightly better personally,but if weight was the issue i would go with the te37's which are still a pretty good looking wheel made by one of the best names in wheels.
Good luck in your choice.

Personally I think that grey wheels on a grey car could look a bit too ermmm.......... grey.

Try imagining nice shiny silver wheels on a grey car - looks a lot more attractive.

First, what size are you getting for the SP1's or the TE37's?
Second, have you ever seen pictures of Volk's limited edition colors on a grey car? Takata Green and Magnesium Blue both look good. There's always Orange or Luminous Yellow haha. Time Attack Red isn't bad either.
Three, you can NEVER go wrong with a set of TE37's. Played out? I don't think so. I think they're just a timeless design that won't go anywhere anytime soon.
