Hey Ken, not sure if you've seen this yet but this is a great place to look at wheels on here below. With your budget you should have a huge selection. Good luck and enjoy.

Hey, Ken I'd keep it as stock as possible with such low mileage will retain a good percentage of it's value I really like the Oem 2006 wheels if you like a bit more flashy there a few places that can polish them or you can go black chrome a beautiful color on the Lemans I have one the same color I went with chrome infinity wheels may post photos if I get the chance GL with your final choice!!

I am hearing now it may be better to keep it more stick, so I’m leaning that way. The original owner had the dealership add a few of the NISMO features, I.e., upgraded exhaust, cool induction, and front grille right after they bought it. The second owner added a Pioneer sound system and front/back cameras. Other than that it’s stock. If you get a chance I would like to see pics of your car with those wheels!
Thanks, Ken

I too have a set of polished infiniti wheels. Told myself they were "The lightest of the light" since technically they removeed trace amounts of metal when polishing.

But cost me $800 bucks, just for the polishing.

That might be true; but wheels - whether factory or aftermarket - is an easily reversible way of customizing and improving the handling of the car to suit you. While stock Z cars are, IMO, wonderful to see amongst the myriad "modified" 33s out there, a nice, light, sticky set of tires/wheels is the best way to get even more enjoyment out of the car. If you want the factory look, a set of Track V.1 wheels (as was recommended way early in the thread) is, in my ever so humble opinion , the way to go.


But the factory G 19s above are nice! About 2/3rds of the wheels my own cars have run are factory wheels; never mind from Z34.
