Your opinion on these wheels

/Angelo350Z/ · 08-27-2013, 12:32 AM

For a little more you can get Work wheels. So, no.

... For a couple hundred bucks more, you can get a used set of 19" Volks if you know where to look. Volks = lighter, stronger, way better looking. Just my two cents I guess.

Lip with bolts looks too narrow or something - looks too busy w/ polished rim reflecting bolts.

Have you seen anybody with this brand or these wheels on a 370? How do you think they will sit

Those are still narrower than the Sport Rays rears.

Try checking out Getyourwheels (google that cuz I think I'm not allowed to post links). They are a vendor here on the forums too. Most of the brand names they carry are reliable. Be sure to put in your car on the search so it shows you the wheels that are compatible with the Z.

Heres some help for you since those wheels are WAYYYY off from anything that should go on a 370.

Cheaper wheels-
Forgestar Concave series
Work Kiwami concave
Wedsport SA55M
Enkei
SSR Type F

A little more pricey- (4k and up)
Volk CE28
VOlk TE37
ISS forged ML24 series wheels
Advan GT

Widths should be no less then stock 9.5 front 10.5 rear.
Offsets should be no less then +22 (if 9.5 width) for flush and +12 for aggrssive front fitment. Rear +12 or +0 for aggressive on a 10.5 wide wheel.
Offset calculator for alternate widths and offsets. http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel-Offset-Calculator

Things to consider as well are wheel weights. The wheels above i gave you are all decent weights some are very good wheels weights. You can google unsprung weight but i can tell you first hand knocking a couple pounds off each corner will make a much better performing car.

My 350Z wheels back in the day stock were 17 inch thin and weighed 53 pounds with tires.
I got my 19 inch Volk TE37s that were 2 inches or more wider and larger and with tires they came in around 47-48 pounds! 5 pounds per Corner was VERY noticeable.

^^ depends on your ride height. those offsets would not look right

Not like I want to spend all your money but coilovers are much better investment. You will be able to adjust the dampening, height, feeling and tons more vs. Spring.

BC coilovers are only like 900 bucks and are better investment. If you have the cash go with HKS or KW variants
