By the time the snow melts in Minnesota and the weather is consistently warm, I want new wheels/tires for my Z. For some reason I am obsessed with concave wheels. The stock sport wheels are pretty concave and I would have thought that there would be a large choice of aftermarket wheels that are just as deep or deeper than the stock wheels but...there doesn’t seem to be all that much out there. Having been a Z owner for only a few months, I'm hoping you guys will have some ideas for me on some new wheels! Ideally, I'd like to spend $2500 or less not including the tires. So please reply with some recommendations (with pics preferably). Currently, I’m thinking about the Vossen CV3s. But they seem to lack options of offsets and why don’t they have 11inch wides for the Z? Weird. I’m also going to be lowering my car with Swifts this spring and I’m open to 19s or 20s. Thanks in advance!

WED Sports SA-55m, 19x9.5 +24 or +15 depending how aggressive you want, 19x10.5 +15 with a small spacer.

If not, then Nismo wheels. Not S-tune but true Nismo

Thanks guys! I appreciate the help. I actually really like those Rohana RC10s. Doesn anyone have any comments good/bad for this brand? They are pretty cheap in price so Im not sure what to think about that. Any other wheel suggestions are welcome as well!

I like them! But after seeing those Rohanas...I'm thinking the $1k in savings could go towards the Fast Intentions CBE

But my mind is not made up yet. I'd like to purchase in the next couple weeks. I've read some of these wheel vendors can take up to 2months to deliver. That sound about right?

Yeah, just keep doing research check out their websites and actually go to a thread they have here on the forum. GL

A budget of 2500 not including tires is not bad. You can get some nice forged rims off the forums. Check all the VQ forums. I saw so many nice wheels that would fit your budget.

NOFATCHX · 01-14-2013, 01:07 AM

Vossen! CV3 CV5 or CV7. Im running 20x10.5 in the rear with a +15 offset, currently have a 10mm speacer and the wheel is flush however theres still more room to work with, Im going to be putting on a 20mm spacer when I find the time, it'll give a little poke but still look clean. As for the front I have a +20 offset and have room to play with, Im going to test a 5mm and a 10mm up front and see how far I can push it before I start rubbing to much.

NOFATCHX · 01-14-2013, 01:08 AM

With that said Ive considered selling my wheels so I can grab a different set of Vossens tho Im not really actively trying to sell. Still playing with a few ideas, if you interested hit me up and we can talk, Id def consider selling them for less then your target $$ figure.
