Brembo or Big Brake, let me see your rims
Please post pics of your Rims if you have Brembo's or Big brakes
It is finally time for me to get some wheels. I am having the hardest time since I have the track model. I was in love with the ADR M-sport (in love with the price too) but they require about a 2 inch spacer for the front. Everyone I have talked to says to stay away from the spacer, it's not safe.
Well I am having a hard time finding a wheel I like for the right price. I love the deep dish big lip look. Don't get me wrong, I love Iforged FS Aero but I just can't afford that right now. Please help me out guys and post some pics of your rims with the description.
Oh yeah, one more thing. I am getting 18's to keep the price down. I drive 30 miles daily to work one way so a 35 profile just won't work for me. Please help*****

If you have the track model, you will gain nothing by getting another brake kit, besides a different look. Have you ever noticed all the 350Z's that are professionally raced use the track model brakes? They didn't do it because the were too cheap to buy better.

That is most definately not true...the Brembo's are good, but yes, there are better (better being a relative term of course).
The cars raced in the US use the Brembo I believe because they have to.

VitaminZ,
How dark are the wheels in person? Not the biggest fan of gun metal but don't get me wrong your wheels look great. I like how the Anthracite puts more emphasis on the machine polished lip. I don't think the all silver would have the same effect. I like the Hyper black on the ADR's, i wonder if the color is similar because they look awesome on the CS Z.

ps: if you haven't noticed yet (most people don't) my wheels have lips facing out that are painted athracite just like the wheel. i think that is a cool detail about my ENKEIs.
