i went with the Volk te-37's and then painted them to match the door handles. I am debating if painting the side mirrors the same color. Just where the black is.

I think the only way black rims would look good is if you have a pinstripe running around the edge of the rim. Which would break it the flow and not make the rim look like a black hole.

I love the Volk TE37's but I feel like everyone has got them.

I'll probobly go with the Volk G10's they're not 5 spoke but not to many people have them since they came out like 3 months ago

These are the accessory nismos that are not the ones that come on the Nismo version. They come in silver and are the same specs as the factory 19s, but about a pound less each. I powdercoated them black and burnt orange.

Work Meister S1

SSR Professor SP1

Any Fikse 5 spoke wheel.

Any of those would look good on a 370Z.

will the nismo lmgt4 wheels fit on a 370z? those are the exact style rims im looking for, not too flashy and clean. one of my favorite rims. those ssr's are really nice, i just want a very lightweight rim, that unsprung weight makes a major differance with a car performance.

I had a set of 19" LMGT4's from my last Z. I wanted to use them again but offsets weren't right. From what I calculated the fronts would be pushed out ~1" and the rears would be tucked a bit (needed a decent sized spacer). I ended up selling them.

damn! can anyone find any aftermarket black wheels that look similar to the LMGT4's? ive been looking and cant find anything. i think the flat black volk te37's would look good on the PG color, its just that blue sticker ruins everything. i thought a 5 spoke design was the most common design? it seems to be very hard to find a black light weight 5 spoke design. i really love the ssr professor sp1 wheels, its just they are way too damn heavy.
