Finally installed b-pilar overlays and hoodshocks...i'm impressed with them both...some pics...






I also used a black overlay on my center caps



My car last month in the ice/snow:



My car going toooooo fast in ice and snow =

Looking good...I like the rims a lot...are they SSR's? If so which ones?

 

the bpillar overlay adds a subtle distinction, accentuates our windows' sexy curves...very nice.

 

350z just doesnt belong in snow

 

Where did you get the hood struts, and how hard were they to install? Looking good..

 

He got the hood struts from me. Send me a PM or better yet email me at vintage_car@yahoo.com for details.

The struts look great, nice clean install!

 

Yes the struts were an overall easy install and they work great......The wheels are A-tech Erasers .. however they do look a little like the ssr type c

 

Great lookin car man! Love the wheels

 

Nice job, I like the pic of your car in the ditch That had to suck since texas rarely gets weather like that. I get 5-6 months of that crap here(Chicago)

 

Yeah the ditch did suck - i hit the gas too hard and then over corrected.. First time i got to use the toe hitch in the front... hehe it works well... wrecker wenched me out... Luckily i had no damage other than frozen mud wedged in my wheels.

 

I like those wheels also. Where did you get them at? I did some searching, but could not find much.

 

In the US they are sold under the name of MB Motorsports
Weapons......check here
and for those that are lazy - here

These wheels are surprisingly inexpensive - as far as quality - no complaints here

 

what offset are those wheels?

 

I would like to know some more specs on those wheels. Size, offset, weight...

 

looks good...

 

Thanks ...
Details on wheels:
Size - I went with a controversial setup - I'm running 18x9 with a 38 offset on all 4.....the back fits fine - the fronts are close:


The tires - i'm running 255/40 on all 4 as well....this puts the fronts at 255/40-18 = 26.03 (+0.06) - stock for 18's is 225/45-18 = 25.97. the rears on mine - 255/40-18 = 26.03 (-0.65) and stock is 245/45-18 = 26.68.
I was worried about this at first but now that i have them , you cannot tell the rear is a little lower....the handling is awsome , it sticks through hard turns - no more plowing....
with the tires on:

This is the front - had plenty of room on the rears....this is also with no spacers. the fronts fit wonderfly with no spacer....they are pretty flush - in just a hair which i like.

the rears are good too without spacers...they are not as tucked as they were stock...they work good and look good however i'm picky and i think they are in about 10mm - i also want to keep them slighty wider than the fronts - so i'm getting a 10mm spacer for them soon.

I can also fully rotate my tires now too

weight - 48.5lbs with tires on them...stock 17's with tires were 50.5 lbs I beleive just the rim alone was about 22 lbs

I'm sure i'll get heat on my tire size from some people but oh well i like them. And like i said it doesn't make the back looked dropped at all , i cannot tell and i looked pretty hard.

 

thanks man, those are pretty close but ive seen closer. Its comfortable enough for me and the price is just right. I might be getting a set. Just wish the came in a six sploke config.

 

moved

 

Sweet.
