Just got them on this weekend folks. I am very satisfied! I know some of you don't like the M-Sports, but... to each their own. Worth every penny for me.



More pics <HERE>

 

WOW...very nice picture.

How did you post the pic that large.
I can't seem to do it on mine.

 

you cant post a pic larger than 640x480 unless you "host" the picture on your private webpage ...the pic is nice..as are the wheels...IMO you shoulda got 19"s

 

why 18's? should of gone 19's, i was planning on getting those, also you need to drop that sweet as ride. make it look pretty.


looks nice though, good choice

I was really thinking about the 19"s , but since the Z is my daily driver, and the roads around here can be really sh!tty, I went with the 18"s.

I can already tell the ride difference, and it IS a little more harsh. I don't have the money right now to drop a boat load into the suspension components, to give me a little better cruising ride, so the 18"s are a good compromise.

Plus... the tires alone for the 19"s are about $100 more EACH ... I didn't want that kind of upkeep cost!

But, like I said, to each their own. I even like the ride height now... not gonna slam it to the ground, it ain't my style.
(but when I can afford the Nismo suspension... she's coming down about 20mm )

 

Hey, I like the wheels!

Ya know, from the angle of your photo the Z would look better with a small drop--though I've been looking at my car all day today (with the new wheels & tires) and I can't forsee doing the drop. Maybe I need to look at my car from a different angle.

 

Just did the same thing on my CS touring Put Michelin 245x40x 18s in the front and 275x35x18 on the rears. Front had to has about a 1/4 " inch of spacers to clear the AP/Stillen 13" brakes . The ride is a lot better then the stock 17s with 50 series Bridgestones. The grand+++ I saved over the Iforge & volks will just about pay for the Nismo suspension.

The only problem I have is the Veilside ver 1 lip scraps the drive way .. No big deal. I'll get some steel plates to cover the gutter and lessen the angle. Nismo s-tune suspension will drop it down it another 3/4 if a inch. We'll post pic soon.
