hey guys didnt know where to put this in the wheel and tire section or the exterior section.so move it if its necessary. anyway i have a few questions and requests.
i have the nismo LMGT4 wheels 18" and goodyear eagle F1 tires on my chrome silver 350 and am wanting to get the vertex body kit. I was looking at the Volk GTS 19" wheels and thinking that would look good with the Vertex kit as well. so heres my questions.
1. Does anyone have pics of the vertex body kit on any color(preferably chrome silver) with either the nismo LMGT4 wheels and the Volk GTS wheels.i want the mercury silver volks if i get them. but i have never seen a 350 with a vertex kit with either wheels on it. so any pics will be greatly apreciated. and comments are welcome.
2. i konw about how much i will pay for the vertex body kit and paint(im gettting the whole car a respray of the same color(chrome silver)). but how much will i have to pay for a set of the Volk GTS 19" wheels?? new and used??
3. if i get the Volk GTS 19" wheels; what else besides tires and TPMS do i need? and do i need wheel spacers, and do i need to roll the fenders??
5. What tire size do i need with the Vold GTS 19" i dont want my wheel to be wider than my tire. but i really dont want it sticking out of the fender. a very little is ok. but not much. dont want it to look like the drag camero with 13" slicks on the back. and what are the offsets.??
4. i want to get suspension after all of this and im liking the Tein Flex with the edfc. i think its pretty cool how you can control it in your car. I dont track my car. only the occasional racing the annoying honda next to me or other cars. but i dont race much at all.
5. and does anyone recommend a good tire that is really good in the wet and the dry with a fairly low profile but not to low profile because we have a good bit of potholes here in South Carolina.
6. and how much should i sell my nismo wheels for if i decide to sell? the wheels and tires have less than 4000 miles on them. and they are in perfect condition. i wax them 2 times a month. and was them along with my car every sunday. and they are in mint condition. i paid 1650 for the wheels and over 1500 on the tires. there goodyear eagle F1 ultra high performance summer tires.
7. and anything else u recommend or want to tell me. and all comments are apreciated. and thanks for helping me with the questions.
and my mods are Hks HI power exhaust, crawford HFC, nismo wheels and the goodyear eagle f1's, nismo cold air intake, pure plenum spacer, carbon fiber side z emblems, and a shorty antenna. i wil post some pics of my car later if anyone would like to see how it is now. thanks!!
and please shoot me some pics. even pics with just the wheels on a car or the vertex kit. or photoshoppers will be greatly appreciated. thanks again.

personally i think the nismo wheels are too mild mannered for a kit like the vertex... i think the volks would be a better choice.... i can pull off the lmgt4's with my amuse kit becuase the lines are similar to stock.... i havent seen anyone run 18's with a vertex kit.. seems like 19's are a must... i could be wrong though... but if you do decide to go with the volks which..... 60% of people on this site will say to do just because they are volks.... ill take those rear lmgt's off your hands...

well i got some Goodyear Eagle F1's on them. they were 1500 + shipping. and i only put about 3000 or 4000 miles on them. and the wheels are in perfect condition. i wash them every sunday. and wax them 2 times a month as i said above. so total i paid 3150 for all of them. not counting mounting, balancing. they have been in the rain only a handfull of times. so im pretty sure its gonna go down i tell him 2500 and he will probrally counter offer 2000 or so. and i am behind on my car payment right now. and im hoping i can give him 2200 but i will probrally take 2000. if he wont go any higher. i just really need the money.

obviously no 1 has it or is gonna help. U have a better bet closing this thread. Finding a Z with the vertex kit going to the photoshop section post up the pik ask for a color change to urs and the volks put on
Which Vertex kit? Please tell me you are buying an authentic one......
As for wheels like others have said, I'd go w/ the Volk because the styling would be better suited to the Vertex kit.
Here's asianracerchick's ride. It's got the GTS, but in a different color than you wanted.

AUTHENTIC VERTEX FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
