USW Forged Kingpin on 370Z?
 

Thinking about changing my OEM 370Z wheels so need opinions on my selection.

This is what the 370Z looks like now:

This is the USW Forged Kingpin wheel I want to mount on the Z:

The red on the Kingpin will be replaced by the Z's body color. Of course the next step is selecting size and thinking of 20x9.5 front and 20x10.5-11 rear. Reading as much about offset and camber requirements to make sure outside edge of wheels lines up with body contours without requiring drift car-like camber! LOL. Will also install BC RC in future. Question: should the BC RC be done first or last or does it not matter?

Thanks for looking.

Not feeling those wheels at all, sorry.

If you plan on going that aggressive you would need to figure out suspension first, it would look weird to be aggressive on stock height

I would also suggest against color matching the face, it doesn't belong on a Z. Challenger or Camaro yes but not on a Japanese car

Not even on a Camaro. Maybe a 300.

Keep them coming as I want as many opinions as possible. Thanks to those that have responded.

Looks too blingy to me. As stated earlier, belongs on a donk, not the Z. Plus color matched wheels to me are tacky.

:iagree: but because of the color issue I see.

I think the lack of response says it all. If you can't say anything nice.............

No holmes. That's not what we do here.

OK, this is what I was trying to emulate with a colored center. I accept that a colored center is not acceptable. Is this look still not acceptable given what has been said? Irrespective of the wheel I chose, I want to achieve this stance.

A brushed or silver face would look much better than color matched

Run them, just cause the masses don't agree don't mean that they wont look good. I'd check to see what they would look like in front of the wheel before I commit though.

You are either going to suceed or fail. Comes down to whether or not you wanna to pony up the scratch for us to see. I am trying to picture it. Sometimes times I think it may work, others, not really. But without going as far as installing them, you nor us will honestly never know.

A picture is worth a 1000 words! Thanks you so much for the rendering.

I attended the NISMO Fiesta in San Antonio, TX to showcase the light work done by Oracle Lighting of Houston and to check out the wheels that others are sporting on their Z's. Mostly everyone sports the chrome, brushed chrome, black, or conbinations thereof on their Z's. There were a few that pushed the envelope as I am trying to do and I got a few pics of Z's sporting colored centers.

The first pic is as close in representation what I am thinking of doing.

White Z's seem to pull of the colored centers well in my opinion.
