ive recently come up with some money from selling some old parts and stuff i had laying around that i wasnt using anymore.. i intend to use this money towards the Z but not sure as to what to get first? i can get Varrstoen ES2.2.2.2 19x9.5/10.5 +12 matte black (not your high quality wheels i know but they do for me, im not trying to start a arguments ) or i can go with GR+ coilovers or BC Racing coilovers.. what i thought i could perhaps do is order the wheels first and then sell my current ones to come up with the money for the suspension?

wheels would be 1050 shipped plus tires on top of that
BUT my main concern is how itll look with them since its not lowered

or

get the coilovers plus front and rear camber kits and toe arms for ~1800

Im looking for some opinions as to what you would do first or recommend?
THANKS IN ADVANCE

PICS OF IT NOW AND A PHOTOSHOP I DID AWHILE BACK

 

I would get the wheels then take whatever money leftover to get coilovers. Wheels is a more expensive purchase IMO.

Get the wheels and paint/ get overlays for your door handles in black/cf to match the theme better. Would make a big difference for not much cost on top of the wheels.

 

get the wheels first. it won't look bad at stock height as long as you dont get bicycle tires.

 

With those offsets I'd say he's going to stretch so I'd get the suspension first.

 

im running +7 / +10 with very little to no stretch.. same widths too.

 

What do first you say? Remove those caliper covers. Then, sell old wheels and get new ones. Winning.

 

+1 ^

 

yea i had thought of blacking the handles out along with darker and black tints

Lol yea definitely no bicycle tires this time.. didnt know anything back then but ive done my research..
ill be going 245/35 and 275/35

what about this order...

1)get new wheels
2)remove covers
3)sell old wheels
= win too?

 

Wheels , after seeing the ones you currently have, wheels should be the #1 priority in life.

 

Man I'm gonna get taken out back and pummeled for saying this, but I actually think the wheels you have on it now look pretty good.....you have any close up shots? (and no I'm not looking to buy, I love the stock Nismo wheels on my Z)

I guess I'm getting a bit tired of the plain black rims look (I put some on my red MR2 Turbo about 10 years ago, back when not that many people were running black wheels, but now I see them everywhere)

 

I'd recommend wheels first as our Zs, unlike some other cars, don't look that bad at stock height.

 

if you get bc coils make sure they send you the right springs for the roadster not the coupe!!! they sent me the wrong ones and mine sits too low but i haven't bottomed out yet, but go for it and post up some pics!!!!
