The Rays wouldn't really make any sense as winter wheels. 19" snows are expensive and 9 and 10" are going to be wider than you'd want for a winter tire.

Thanks! They're sitting in the garage, haven't put them on the car yet cause I wanna take some summer wheel pics this weekend first. I'm prolly gonna black out the center cap so there's no brand name on them. :tup:

ebay is your friend. 19" snow tires are not easily resellable. I got mine for $120, picked up 20 minutes from my house

That's wonderful, but if I'm planning on driving in snow I want to do it in a narrower tire with a little more sidewall. :)

Drex, that looks great man! I'm definitely going to have to pick up some 25mm spacers for next year!

255/45/19 works acceptable, especially for the price

Nice!
Just picked up the same wheel but went with the Pilot Alpine PA4s...they went on today...pearl white '12

Spacers are on order...and eBay has some decent Z decals for the center hubs...

Reminder: Make sure to put five of the OEM lug nuts in the trunk because the winter wheel lug nuts won't fit the compact spare in the event of a flat.

@Vickster

Just bought a 370z a few days ago in Colorado. I bought Sport Edition A7 with Blizzak LM-32 tires. It seems, other than the tire, this is your setup. I was wondering, did you have any mounting issues, or really an issue with the wheels?
