A few driveway shots of the new Enkei's
 
Recently put my NT03+m Enkei's on, 18x9.5 +27 and 18x10.5+30, 245/40 and 285/35. The fronts weren't clearing my Brembo's and the rear tire had to come out from the coilover a little, but other than that they look awesome IMO and 100x's better than my old set up.

and yes I will be getting wider rear spacers to get the rear flush.

Nice. I honestly think I liked the old wheels better though, but that's just me.

But please at least take that stock tow hook off or paint it or something, it just looks silly.

IMO the new setup looks a lot better than the old setup...those rims with some good tires are great for DD and track use, nice choice

I like those Enkei's alot. I think they would look sick if you had them painted or powder coated gloss black.

I'm debating if I should get them painted or powdercoated in a matte/satin black. I'm possibly doing a carbon hatch and roof so I think it would go nicely together.

+1 on the old set up

AllStock Apr 5, 2009 01:46 PM

:( old wheels were million times better. clean car though.

Get_Zwole Apr 5, 2009 02:46 PM

new wheels look 100 times better. I personally hate the wheels that were on there before. light weight and clean looking ;).

Rickdogg Apr 5, 2009 03:08 PM

The old wheels had more potential. It's just a matter of putting everything together correctly. Painting the CF hood, clearing out the headlight, and putting on clear reflectors would have really set off the old wheels more.

Anyways, those Enkeis should be nice and light though.

old setup looks better to me.

quakerroatmeal Apr 5, 2009 03:40 PM

I think the old setup looked better as well. Just needed to present it better. I seen those enkeis on an evo and it looked good. But not on the z imo.

3hree5ive0ero Apr 5, 2009 03:46 PM

What happened to the old ones?

BTW, both old and new wheels look great, although I prefer the RH S3 Pros (I'm a huge fan of Super Advan V2 and these are very similar).

Triple8Sol Apr 5, 2009 04:12 PM

Looks good, and I love the NT03's, but the 3-spokes looked better imo. More unique.

deezz Apr 5, 2009 04:21 PM

The new wheels look good and the stance looks better with the new wheels, but the old wheels fit the Z a little better to me. Can't lose either way though.

Cheers

yeah old wheels are 100x doper.. and put the stock hood back out wouldnt be a bad idea also. but grats on a clean ppw .do what makes you happy =)

10b4FouR Apr 5, 2009 05:19 PM

I like the old set up better

Get_Zwole Apr 5, 2009 05:44 PM

old wheels remind me of these every mexican that owns a lawn service in town has these on their work trucks. No im not racist figured id get the race card thrown at me. look disgusting on a Z if you ask me.

Nice wheels.. where did you get them at? I'm thinkin bout getting a set for my DD.

Chef-J Apr 5, 2009 06:20 PM

Both looks good, if you replace your tow " Hook " =)

lgear080 Apr 5, 2009 06:38 PM

I think the car looks sick. Sometimes we just get bored!

If you want to cash out the old wheels... Pm me.
