I've never understood the hating on reps, like they want me to apologize for not being filthy rich like them. Screw that. As long as you're not paying $400 for a brand new set of wheels, the quality should be fine. Just don't jump your car like the dukes of hazard at 125mph and you'll be fine.

I am neutral on this but I gotta say...Sometimes i see ppl rocking the real thing, only to see owner had opted for the cheapest tire option available (because of tire stretch or camber/toe wear or just flat out don't care). That's just laughable.

Varrstoen makes some awesome looking wheels. I might buy some myself one day if I get tired of the sport Rays. People who hate on replicas without thinking about it are pretty shallow. The reality is this; your average potential-wheel-consumer really only cares about the look and style of the wheel, so why would they pay thousands more just because of better construction? That being said, forged wheels could save your life when you don't see that pothole one day on the highway. It's happened to people on this forum with sport Rays, and they will tell you; if it wasn't for the quality of the forged wheel, it could have been the end. I have seen Varrstoen wheels seperated into pieces on other forums, but those are extreme cases.

Bottom line: those Varrstoen wheels are beautiful, well-priced and look perfect on the 370Z. Buy them.

What wheel widths? +22 9.5" for the front is flush. Im at +20 and I poke a bit. If rears are at 10.5" then +12 is close to flush depending on tire size. I went with a 5mm spacer on the rear and its perfect flsuh.

Nope. My wheel specs are 18x9.5 +35 with a 15mm spacer so an effective offset of +20 for the front. My rears are 18x10.5 +12 also but I have a 5mm spacer at the moment making it +7. definitely doesn't need it but it makes it perfect flush. I'll be taking off once I change my tire sizes to a 305.

There are literally 3 pages of threads with 370z's and Varrstoens if you did a simple search, was this thread really necessary?
