Question about wheels
 
I just purchase my 370z and I'm in the market for wheels... Does anyone know anything about stern wheels??? Are they crap and not worth the money? Any advice is appreciated.

Yes eBay crap, heavy and pretty low quality. Might be okay for snow tire set. I would not buy a set.

thank you... what would be a good alternative for a reasonable price?

Luckily, we dont need snow tires in Tampa... ONLY Hurricane tires :)

Before this turns into a "hate on cheap wheels" thread let me tell you a story . . .

The year was 2001. It was December and I had just purchased a Honda Accord Sedan. I wanted aftermarket wheels but had a crappy job so I bought a set of 18" wheels for $500 new. Couple years later gave them to a friend. Last weekend went back home to VA and my friend STILL had them on his car and they still haven't cracked, warped, bent, or blown his car up into tiny pieces from the cheapness.

Support the industry, don't buy fake parts.
