hey i checked the XXR750 styling. they're the mesh wheels?

u sure this wheel is going to look okay on a Z? looks like something someone would put on an audi sedan or something?

Wide awake now though, who needs sleep :icon17:
Got lucky! Glad everything worked out ok though. Soooo, pics nao?

I like Audi wheels for some reason. I'm weird. Don't they make a cheaper sub-version of your wheels though for roughly $250?

I was also thinking about these

Something like those at least. Staggered and concaved.

Oh well , glad it was something simple.

absolutely just do the spacers and lower your ride if you want to go for looks.
you'd want to run 20mm spacers front and rear if you're going to lower your ride, and run 285/35/19 tires on the back.

if u want to go more for driving keep the offset stock, run RE11's 245/40/19 and 285/35/19 and get a front swaybar 30-35% stiffer than stock.



audi wheels look good on an audi, but it's up to you. i like concave styling for our curvy cars.

Prolly cause they are :rofl2:

I'll have to go find that wheel thread on here and look at everyone elses concave wheel styles. The car came with amazing Yokohama Advant Sports on it that are brand new, so I don't want to get 285's just yet. I'll just offset slightly and call it a day.

Why RE11's specifically though? Just curious. I usually run Nitto Invos.

so you have the 18's or 19's? if u prefer 18's i'd check out enkei RPF1's. they're not concave, but have a nice stagger and very light weight.

as for RE11's, check out the RE11 thread in the tire section. they are wat i use and from experience, they are by far VERY GOOD tires for street. im thinking about wrapping a set on my weds (avatar pict). i currently run the hyper silver nismo wheels with RE11's on my ride.

The Enkei's to me only ever look good with drag tires on them in 16's form. I really am picky and weird....I'll just save and buy your set. They're the nicest I've seen on Z's so far. And yes, I have 18's. No fancy Rays for me.

I really enjoyed the RE-11s on my 350Z. Very good tire.

Hey if you don't mind paying $1100 on top of swapping sports, I'm down. Most people think I'm asking too much but I'm actually not. Cheap mofos.

if not lowering, u can run the 18x9.5 ET38 and 18x10.5 ET25. should be a clean look.

It's not the size that matters, it's how you use it. :icon17: Also, cheap tires ftw.
