Not much stock rims look like the 370z sport wheels so I'm guessing not much people think they are stock. Its just us 370z owners freaking ourselves out thinking people will know.

Ya... I get a bunch of ppl asking what kind of rims they are and where I got them. They find it hard to believe that they are stock.
