SSR-SP3******(Officail First Owner In USA)
 
So they came in today. I have missed the Fedex guy on monday but I had them bring them today because I knew I would be home. The place I bought them from is zwheels.com is the number one seller of SSR wheels in US. Call Vick he will hook you up! Anywho they sent Vick an IM the other day here it is.
TanabeusaNT (4:20:19 PM): when he gets the wheels tomorrow he will be the first to run SP3 in US

Also they sent me an email telling me I am the first get these bad boys. Thanks SSR and Ezwheels.

As of right now I have crappy pics. I will update the pics with them on my ride but I am waiting for my Bridgestone RE-11's to come in errrr.

absolutely love those wheels on Z34's, congrats and can't wait to see them on your Z!

dlmartin81 03-25-2010 07:22 PM

:drool: mmmmmm

theDreamer 03-25-2010 07:29 PM

And when do I get to see these on your car?

JB-370z 03-25-2010 08:10 PM

Well I had discount tire call Bridgestone to give me an ETA and they are shooting for next tuesday. I had to wait almost 3 months for the wheels another week wont kill me.....or will it!?!
Alliance is shipping my BBK out sometime next week as well. My only new complaint is, my spare tire will not fit the new big rotors going on the car so my spare is just taking weight. Does anyone have any ideas on what I should do?

I might have to go ahead with the JL thin 13" sub to fill in the blanks if ya know what I mean. I guess I should become a member of AAA incase I need a tow for now on. The bad part is no local shops that I know of around Housotn stock Bridgestone RE-11's so I can get towed but have to wait a week to get a tire in errrr.... The more performance the more complicated things get. Might need to pick up a 99 240sx for back up :)

theDreamer 03-25-2010 08:14 PM

It is tough that no one carries the RE-11s, but I agree on the second vehicle (it helps).
I took my spare out last weekend and love it (and the tools), but left the black pieces to allow me to still use the area. Not sure what to do with the area 100% yet, but 90% of the weight is gone which was my goal.

We will have to meet up once the wheels, tires and BBK are on so I can see them.

You can PM me and see it when ever you want Dreamer. You only live a neighboor hood over from me. I still need to try out that short shifter of yours to see if I want to order one or not.:driving:

Added more pics:tiphat:

vehl 03-25-2010 09:44 PM

nice choice..pix pix pix!

VQV 03-25-2010 10:00 PM

nice wheels.

never thought of 3 piece wheels on a 370z

nice colour too

initialgemini 03-25-2010 11:06 PM

looks awesome! Lets see some pics on the car!

jmlenz 03-29-2010 01:37 PM

wrap 'em and rack 'em!

RichZ 03-29-2010 04:58 PM

hey JB370z,

have you got the wheels on the car yet? im keen to see what it'll look like on the white :)

please post some pix when they're on!

cheers

theDreamer 03-29-2010 05:00 PM

He is currently waiting on tires, which has been going on for a few weeks now. I believe they are suppose to arrive tomorrow or Wednesday.

A-113 04-01-2010 09:10 AM

NICE! More pics please

JB-370z 04-01-2010 10:44 AM

They came in yesterday! But I could not get there by 6 to get them put on. I am going to leave work at 2:00 today to go get them thrown on. It took along time for the tire to come in, discount tire is blaming Bridgestone but there is no reason to sit around and play the blamming game, I am just glad they are in. All I have is my i-Phone, my daughter pulled my nikon DSLR off of the counter and broke it a year ago and I have not replaced it yet :( Dreamer do you have a camera? Already spent over 2k on the car this month so maybe I can afford one next month along with a go pro-HD :)
Next mods; mabe next month or wait today is the first so it is the next month :) ..ok next mods will be HKS Hipermax lll coilovers, spl camber adjustable parts and the good thing is when I order them I wont have to wait 1-3 months before I get them. 4.5k on wheels and tires, 4k on BBK and still nothing to show for :)
Dreamer: I want to capture your fly by shot on video. It sounded sooo... purdy :)

theDreamer 04-01-2010 10:50 AM

Well soon I will have long tube so it will change.
On the camera, right now I only have a crappy point & shoot.

JB-370z 04-01-2010 06:25 PM

To make a long story short I had to over night an ssr valve stem from cali. $44 to over night a $5 part. Anywho they wont be on the car until tomarrow if the fedex dude gets here well before 6:00. Not a happy camper at the moment, but you win some and ya lose some; and today folks I lost. Im not even in the mood to go to the drift event tonight anymore.

Chris_1 04-01-2010 08:35 PM

Those are going to look gorgeous, their is something about the multi spoke look on the 370, the mesh and multi seem to really be working on these cars. Love the step lip by the way, I think step lips are always sexy.

JB-370z 04-01-2010 09:37 PM

You have the longest name I have seen to date. Nice :) I will have pics up tomarrow for sure but crappy ones. More Japan-want pics so I need to find someone in the H-Town area that has a nice camera for a photo shoot. Want to wait a week until I get the BBK on too.

theDreamer 04-01-2010 09:39 PM

If you find someone let me know so I can join in.
Want some pictures of the few mods I have done and before I get to far into changing the car.

Juruki 04-07-2010 06:47 PM

did these ever get mounted?

JB-370z 04-07-2010 07:21 PM

Here are a few bad ones from my iphone. They are no longer on the car anymore they are off getting re-high polished with a protective clear coat on the lip. The face is getting painted with (Graphite Grey Metallic) but with more metallic and one shade darker, K51 paint code modified :) They will be back on the car by sat or sunday. Also I just got a 14.1 meg camera that should take some half @ss pics until I get a high end camera. Also my BBK has been shipped and hope to get it soon if not by friday I will get it monday. So many more pics to come, hope I picked out a good color for the wheels but only time will tell.

dlmartin81 04-07-2010 07:36 PM

They look dope!

terbo 04-07-2010 07:56 PM

Very classy! I like em. What are the specs, width & offset and tire sizes etc...? I would have coated the spokes gold, but graphite should look sick as well. I just have a soft spot for pearl white and gold.

SE 04-07-2010 08:03 PM

Well what wheels and tires you got?:rolleyes:

HKYStormFront 04-08-2010 07:24 AM

yummy :yum:

terbo 04-08-2010 09:16 AM

Why not wider tires in the back? I mean if someone squeezed a 305 onto the stock 10" rim...

ATL_Red_G35 04-08-2010 09:19 AM

awesome, which disk profile u went with? NR front and SL rear?

JB-370z 04-08-2010 09:50 AM

With my offset it prolly would not tuck. It barley will now.
Just got word that my wheels are ready to pick up so I will have pics tonight or tomarrow but this time they will be high res pics. :) also just went to fedex's website with my tracking number mike from blickline gave me and my bbk will be delivered sat morning! 140lb package, hope they don't really weigh this much!
I had a high end clear coat put on the polished part of the lip to help them stay nice :)
and I hope the color I picked out for the face of the wheel looks as sexy on the car as that color code looks on the platinium graphite 370.

terbo 04-08-2010 10:36 AM

Are you going to put center caps on them or leave those nasty holes open?

JB-370z 04-08-2010 10:54 AM

I am going to put bannanas in there. Maybe even hide my crack in there, yes of course I am going to put center caps on they have not come to the states yet. But next week a batch will be in. Not sure if I am going with the polished caps or carbon fiber caps.

I say you go with bananas and crack. CF might look better with the darker wheel, unless you want it to contrast with the face and match the lip.

nice!!

RedComet 04-08-2010 07:09 PM

Very nice wheels man, great choice indeed!
