Scuffed wheel

wow, I am very sorry to see this. It does look pretty bad. If I were you I would either: a. Cheapest option: Repairing the wheel ($150ish as crash mentioned.)

a. Cheapest option: Repairing the wheel ($150ish as crash mentioned.)

b. Regular option: Get the same single OEM wheel. You can get them on ebay/craigslist or Nissan dealership etc. This one is for a whole set eBay Motors: 370Z 19INCH WHEELS (item 280313687853 end time Feb-22-09 11:57:50 PST) but you get the idea.

c. Expensive option: Get a new set of Volks from one of our sponsors

I think it might be a combination of 'a' and 'c' to be honest. I will just hold off on powder coating the stock wheels and put the money into new wheels.

Anyone know if the fitment is the same from the 350 to the 370?

Do you suppose Volk needs a new 370 as a sponsor for their wheels?

*goes to PM Sharif...

What's your preferable colors? I have always liked "bronze"ish rims on a White Z. Here are some example:



CE28


TE37


For no lip look, I kinda like this model


How they look on Z:

Let the mod fever begin!
