Volks were awesome. They were in the paper and everything.

I would find the guy who bought my Z and ask him to sell you the wheels. That's my honest recommendation.

- RB.

Ps. Refer to forum rule #5-b. "Photographs of said owners vehicle must be posted within 24 hours of pick up or an automatic 7 day ban is imposed from the site and all its glory."

I'd get a move on...

Welcome to the forums. I made the move from an RSX to 350z Touring Roadster. Loved the Z, I also had a nice pair of 19" Volks, people loved the rims as much as the car. Never regretted the price i paid for them.

Nice upgrade. Just don't bring any of the 8thGen Civic kiddies onto this board. Those guys are retarded.


-aka B18C5er on 8th.

volks are overrated ... www.iputinwork.com :P

just a heads up ... +31 will get you "needs spacer" replies for sure.

i'm running 9.5 + 15 front 10.5 +17 back with about 1.5" drop and i wish i ran a bit lower offsets. look in the wheels section and see what ppl are running to be flush.

welcome .. love to see a little splash of colour in our club of mostly silver and black

PS - +1 on the offset comments .. offsets will make or break the look. Go big or save until you can lol.

19 - 9.5 and 10.5 / +17 and +22 works great for me

Nice!
Although I hate the front plate, ah! I break the law 24/7 and just don't have one lol, but none the less I respect that people don't want to be hassled.

I love the colour, love the wheels, it looks so clean!

Thanks, lol!

It's my first manual car, so I'm still getting used to it (and the stage 2 Exedy clutch doesn't help make it any easier, haha).

Absolutely. I thought I knew how to drive manual on my friend's 2008 Civic Si - I was totally wrong when I had to drive the Z back from Guelph, haha! In addition to the stiffer clutch, driving with both of my legs isn't something I'm used to, lol.
