Your opinion on these wheels

Planning on buying some soon. Originally wanted black ones but these caught my eyes. What you think? https://www.wheelfire.com/scontent/W...%20SPORT%20PKG

yah, check out the TSW nurbs. they are legit, cheap and light weight.

also WEDS wheels are very good, mid-level price, and often available state side.

also check out Enkei wheels. some have 18's that look pretty good.

but your best best would be sport wheels 19's and great tires. that would be the way to go for cheap, effective solution imho.

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.

Before I ordered by Works I was considering the Forgestar F14F's in 19 and I think they were somewhere in that range, but that wasn't including tires.

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

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