For sale are my immaculate 19" 2018 Nissan 370Z Nismo alloy wheels.
 
Hello all big spenders :hello:

I have for sale a delicious set of un-marked two-year-old Nismo wheels with almost new/barely used Michelin tyres.:yum:

I'm based in Yorkshire (UK) and I'm looking for a deserved buyer as the wheels are currently sat un-used and it's unlikley I'll re-fit these.

The wheels are as new and in perfect condition, and have ony seen dry weather.

The wheels are a staggered fitment (9.5"/10.5").



The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres are also as new and have roughly 300 dry miles on them only (normal road use).



The wheels were removed in October before the winter weather/road grit etc. and have been stored carefully inside and not stacked on top of each other bare.
In their place I used some 370Z GT alloys with Bridgestone tyres fitted.


These super-light-weight forged magnesium Rays alloy wheels are over £1500 per wheel from Nissan and that is without a tyre, I have seen an internet trader selling these for <£900 bare rim only.



The Michelins PS4 score top marks in performance reviews, and these stick like nothing else I've ever used (other than the Yoko's on my EVO). The bridgestones would take some warming up before they were useful, and I could still spin the rears up in fourth gear when driving flat-out if there was the mildest amount of damp on the floor. The michelins just encourage you to 'try harder' and corner faster:driving:

Tyres alone are more than £700 before fitting/balancing costs so this set would potentially cost a buyer in excess of £6500 if they sourced from a main Nissan stealer.



The opportunity to buy a complete set and in immaculate condition is VERY rare. I am pricing my wheels at £2450. I may consider an offer, but I am not forced to part with these wheels so please be considerate/realistic.



I have a full set of spare chrome wheel nuts and lockers that will come for free, these are used.





I also have a pair of chrome 'Z' badges that are around four months old, and a pair of pipercross panel filters same age.

These shall be listed on gumtree too, but for the right buyer I'll throw these in with the wheels (approx £110 value of goodies). All as new condition.





Payment by bacs/bank transfer on day of collection please (I'll put kettle on whilst transfer completes).



Thanks for looking, any questions please be in touch.

Irrespective of cost from Nissan I have seen two sets of Nismo alloys with only delivery mileage offered for significantly less on Ebay (£1700).

Realistically, your wheels have been used for longer and have had tyres replaced is that through choice or because of mileage?

I ask because I am curious and am actually not looking for new wheels.

I replaced the tyres because the Bridgestone's couldn't perform like I wanted them too. I have tried other variants of Bridgestone tyres on other cars including a 350Z, but they all lack grip when cold and take too long to heat up, and the side walls aren't stiff enough for what I want. They handle poorly in anything but dry weather, and even then they still flex and shift when cornering at pace meaning I have to back off the power until the car straightens up.

Bridgestones were replaced with fronts at just shy of 6mm and rears at 4mm and these were the factory fit from new when the car came from Nissan.

Not sure when you've seen a full set of these on ebay for £1700 as I'd been looking for over nine months for another set to dedicate to track days, and the only listing I found was a set of three. The bloke wants £700 per wheel too which is why I didn't buy them, and he can't shift them as they are still for sale today. Probably because buying another wheel would be hard work unless it's a spanker and at ££££££.
I ended up buying the GT alloys myself as I got bored of waiting and hoping a set would appear.

Did the wheels you see also have brand new PS' tyres too, as that would put the alloys at a grand a set only which is a bargain. Wish I'd seen those listings.
The mileage on the 'wheels' is almost irrelevant as this is still less than 7000 miles, and a set of 'delivery mileage' wheels won't look any better, and probably have the cheap Bridgestone tyres fitted too, which are a waste of money. But if mine are overpriced then I guess no-one will buy them and I'll either have to reduce them to match market demand or re-fit them and enjoy the rubber until its all gone. 370/350Z parts/buyers market is a smaller one I appreciate, but I've cared for these wheels massively during ownership so couldn't stomach giving them away for peanuts when I could as easily enjoy them some more.

Thanks for the question though as this may answer it for any potential buyers out there.
