Yeah I suppose it depends on what you want from your z. I don't track mine either, but I am not willing to sacrifice acceleration for a nicer looking wheel. As long as I don't notice it then idc, but if it is noticeable then I will look for another wheel

today
 

the day my wheels are mounted. Pics to come:tiphat::driving:

This is kind of my thought also. My second choice is a Forgestar wheel, and since I will be getting the 310 powdercoated a custom color, the Forgestar in the same size/offset is only a couple hundred more (plus Forgestar doesn't charge for colors).

Awesome, in for pics! Let us know if you notice a difference in acceleration also please.

I like the f14 but ultimately I chose avant garde powdercoated gloss black because I've had avant garde wheels on my vehicle before. I know the product and love the look. Can't wait to have them on the z with these zick offsets. I can't wait to get them on my car.

Yes however the lowest offset they come in is +23 in the rear which will not be as flush as the 310. The weight difference is not that far either. We are talking 2-3 lbs.

Is that 2-3 lbs per wheel or for all 4 wheels?

I think thats per wheel.

Hmm that stinks, I really didn't want to run a spacer.

New wheels
 

:ughdance: Damm, those are the prettiest things Ive ever seen. I cannot describe how awesome they look with the 255/295s. I mean, shyt, so aggressive. The guys at the dealer just stared. All of them including the owner. The tires make the Z aggressive over the top. Perfect offsets as the tires just flare out from the car. That is super nice. The guys at the dealer said it looks like a Porshe. It gets better.Now the wheels. Fabulous. The concave, the shine, I like that style. Also going from 18s to 19s add more. I cleaned em and used a tire black 3 times. Stunning on my black Z. Will post pics tonite. One word of caution. Buy the TPMS with the tires. I didnt. Exchanging means if I ever put the 18s back on awhen/if I trade in, then the new owner would expect them. Also, exchanging them would take longer and you or the dealer must be very careful as not to damage the tires. So, Im driving without the TPMS and have to put up with the little sensor being on. If it bothers me, Ill order a set and have it done later, but it s not cheap. I simply might cover up the sensor indicator with a product that ill look for. Could use electrical tape or something a little better asthetically. That is if it a bother. I drove home slow and the indicator hasnt come on yet. But its not a problem and can be resolved. Now, the ride home on smooth roads gaVE ME a very nice ride, better than the stocks, but it was a slow ride. Overall on a scale of 1 to 10, its a 10.1. Pics coming tonite. :driving:

Looks great!

Thanks, not dropping. Like the look as it is and afraid of bottoming out. Thanks again. Im very satisfied

Here's my opinion
 

after having my Avant Garde M310s and Hankook V12s 255/295 since Monday. The looks are a 10. From all angles. The width of the tires. The perfect offsets, the way the wheels sit out at the fenders. The hyper silver against my black Z. Gunmetal with a gloss would look outstanding too. The wheel is so noticeable from a distance . Now the ride seems quieter even though I went from the base 18s. Now this is at non highway speeds. The ride also seems smoother and softer with the larger rubber. Although you may feel this combo is heavier, the acceleration is there. We are adding a total of what, 30lbs including the rubber. Overall, I wouldnt trade this Z in. It looks and acts what I always hoped for. :tup:

Awesome man! Can't wait to get mine!

I am still waiting on mine. How much longer can they be??

Can't wait to see these pics!
Debating between matte black and dolphin grey on my black Z

My opinion: m310's and potenzas re11; the ride is MUCH quieter, smooth and the acceleration is the same IMO. To make for the few pounds of extra weight, I just took the spare out and the tools ( just make me feel better for some reason lol)

The stance is aggressive, tpms replacement was a breeze, everything fit real nice.
Will post pictures as soon as I install my swift springs, don't want to show it off with pick up truck stance! Hehe.

Agree! Taking too long!

864, your wheels should be done early next week. The day we get the back we will ship them!

Sounds good! CAN'T WAIT! Haha it's killing me...

It will be worth it :)

I sure hope so brother! I seriously am about to die! What's the chances I have them in my possession before Sunday?

My tires came in today.

Better post some pics:inoutroflpuke:

Will post as soon as I get my wheels. ;) when that day comes lol

Anyone have h&r springs paired with these? Thinking of getting h&r or swift springs and SPC rear camber kit.

I have Teins and imo it needs to come down just a bit more. so i would def recommend a set of h&r or swifts that are more aggresive than teins.

I also opted for the SPC rear camber kit, it was needed with my teins and will def be needed for any springs you get, unless you like alot of negative camber and short tread life.

Thanks! Appreciate it. I can't decide if I want swifts or h&r.
