I think its because it makes the car look less of a sports car and more of a honda accord or camry.

I think they will fit. I measured them and they are the same size. Ill give it a go when I get some time. I still plan on taking them off and painting them satin black.

Aren't your stock rims better than the ones you just put on?

I think they are about the same. Weight wise. Evo wheels weigh in at 22-23lbs.

EDIT: 350z wheels weigh 23 up front and 24 in the rear.

Thanks man!

My best is a 9.42 @142MPH with a 1.578 60 ft. My friend that is a toothpick, went a 9.301 with a 1.580 60 foot.

Its only lowered, strapped, -1 rear sprocket, welded clutch mod, and has an air shifter. Im about to put a 12 over chromoly arm, +8 tail, short oil pan, cut the forks, and put an RCC turbo kit with about 6-8 lbs of boost on it for my winter project. Should run some low 8s and some 1.2-1.3 60 foots.

I like the fact that a guy named "Boostin'Scooby" is posting pics of An Evo with Nissan wheels on it... On a Z board no less.. Priceless.

Yeah, im a subaru fan. Sold my 05 STi, put down payment on an 08, got recalled for crank bearings, bought an evo till I can afford to buy the 09 STi. Cant knock a car till you have owned one. And I have owned both an evo and an 04 350z. My personally preference is still the subaru's.

LOL, you should sell those for $500 and use the funds to buy some better wheels.

Not feeling that look on your Evo at all.

Personally, I think the OEM 18" G35 wheels would look better, maybe 06+ OEM 18" 350z wheels, or the OEM 18" rays.

Can somebody pshops those?
