wow, no love for the rims huh?

it's cool, i know how it goes and i am the one driving it right? to be honest i wanted those wheels ever since they came out for my Maxima, but of course i traded that car in on this one. as for the offset, i think these are 35mm? 20mm was also available. honestly i dont know the difference, i just went on the suggestion from the guy at DiscountTireDirect.com. i kind of wish the spokes were a tad bigger, they look small to me. but overall i like them. i might have to get some better pics, they really look a ton better in person. i got complimented 3 times in the first couple hours of having them (one was an older guy who was telling me about how he bought a 1989 300zx new but had to sell it for some reason.......it was kinda cool that he still has love for the Z).

i hope UPS delivers on Saturdays, i want my dang intakes and exhaust!

Accordaleer - i might have to take your advice on the blinker bulbs, thanks.

As long as you like them, i know youll get a lot of compliments from average, even car enthusiasts, but this is the Z crowd, very hard to impress lol. Well lemme know i told ya i got a pair if you want them, 15 bucks shipped, theyre untouched, im gonna try to send them back and get my rear blinker size or you could pm for paypal and ill ship them off to you. Were a ***** to find, theyre like 22 or something at the z store. Anyway lemme know. Incase you havent seen them.... EDIT: oops didnt mean to put up 2 lol. just ordered clear reflectors today, thought about black ones on my silver Z since it would match my tint, but went with clear, oh well.

The license plate in the front window looks ghetto, very very bad taste there. It would actually look better on the car than on the dash like someone with an 85 Cutlass or something.

If you lowered the car with a set of Hotchkis springs, ride quality is still really, really good, and it lowers it only about .5" or so. I love my springs, and have never thought twice about them.

Brand really has nothing to do with a good looking wheel.

Volk and works wheels are nice but saying a wheel isn't nice because of a brand is pretty sad.

Just get some spacers if need be, you wheels look weak because they're tucked up under your fenders. I pointed out FWD because that's how FWD cans tend to be.

Bring them suckers out and it will look 10 times better.

Im not gonna get rims on my car, idk why i guess im happy enough with the stock rims, and not many rims grab my attention, but if i got spacers for the stock rims, i was wondering, they dont throw more crap from the ground? I just picture more tire sticking out = more pebbles being thrown against the car.

car looks good, but the color of ur wheels clashes with the color of the car IMO....should consider a lighter colored wheel or a black wheel....badass car though!

the color is called "hyper black". i never understood it because they always looked like gunmetal to me in pics, but i noticed that they change color with the light from a gunmetal to black, depending on the angle. i would think "hyper black" would just be a really dark black, i guess they need to be seen in person. my neighbor likes them, he is hyper black.
