We dont have a way to purchase on the site, we like email or phone to be honest bc we can deal directly with the customer. We accept paypal and all credit cards, send me an email if you want to chris@wheelsdirectonline.com and will get some magic going for you.

Fairlady, PLEASE do not encourage that centercap swapping thing lol. That is like worse then buying knockoffs, its ok to buy knockoffs, but to try and pass them off as the real thing is EXTREMELY screwed up.

Chris is a great person to work with! My experience with Wheelsdirect, and chris, specifically has been great.

from what ive read in the past XXR wheels shatter instead of bending when it hits a big enough impact.

they are okay on cheezo cars... and to be used for snows.

Just keep your sport package wheels. They are great wheels. If you want to be different, paint them, get spacers, etc. but don't swap them out for garbage.

If you are going to get rid of your rays, UPGRADE, don't buy some crap wheels just to look different. if you want to change your wheels, save up some cash, sell the rays, and get something of at least equal quality.

Please don't buy XXR's for your 370z.

There are plenty of bargain options like Enkei RPF1's that are a much better quality/weight.

Will they damage your Z, probably not but you will lose performance from the added unsprung weight of the heavier wheels.

Apprently Sportmax (which I have actually heard of) is the former name of the company -- I'd say search for reviews on Sportmax and see if you can find out why they switched ownership.

Oh yeah i had a question regarding my wheels as well...
So what do you guys do with your stock rims after you get ur new rims?
Do you take out the tires from your stock rims and use it for ur new rims?
Or do you get new tires for your new rims?
Do you normally sell your old rims and tires?
If so do you know how much they are worth?

Some sell them some keep them for back up or if they decide to sell the car.
If the size are the same why not.
Same question as the first question?
I think I've seen from 1200~1800. with tires.
