17" rims

Yeah, was doing other mods. I am leaving cosmetic stuff for last. I like 17"s because I think they'll look great and unique.

I appreciate wanting to do something unique, but I'm not sure if 17's are the way to do it.

There are times that I look at my car and feel that 19's are too small. Nissan shouldn't have made the wheel arches so big.

Im sure they will work. I had them on my 350Z. Just check clearances but honestly I was wanting 18's or 19's. They seemed a little small on the 350 and Im sure they will look our of proportion on the 370. Have fun tho if you try and post up pics.

Will do.

I'll definitely try them on before getting a set.

I am going for Volk TE37V in bronze.

I've seen pictures on the forum of a 370Z with 17" wheels. I'm not sure if it had the base brakes or sports package. The main limiting factor may be the spoke design so that it clears the brakes.
