Default New FALL shoot + new wheels!

Whats up fellas

Picked up my new wheels yesterday so I took some pix today before winter starts to come down

I used to have the rota tqs in 18s but they were too small and werent as aggressive as I wanted it to be. The 19s and the +0 offset fit much,much better with the kit all around.

Please, No drama in this thread.... Enjoy the pix and comments are welcome.

Are those TE replica? I don't know, but it looks like a mess with the setup, from stretched setup on 4x4 stance to the taillights. I do like what you did to that rear diffuser though, but that rear bumper still look fugly.

yes they are ^... the tails are there till the 06+ come in.. I had nothing else to put on.. Gotta do the coilovers but its too damn cold, I wouldn't exactly say 4x4.. as its already lowered on springs/shocks setup.. 1 finger in the front and barely fit 2 fingers in the back tire..

with your ride height, +12 and wider tires would have looked much better...as for the rest.......

EDIT: What coilovers will you be installing?

You desperately need wider rubber front and rear. Car looks good otherwise

Your car is super aggressive Vas, not everyones taste but I like it.

The wheel gap is because of your tire selection, you will need to drop it alot more or get wider tires to compensate.

Thanks guys!.. And sorry for not making this clear but .. Those tires are wayyy too streched ... I dont drive the Z much in the winter , so those tires are there just for now.they came with the wheels so...

The R888s will go in spring .. I can't put em on now because the compound will crack in the freezing new York winter.

wider tires is a must on this ride. The car looks great just never really liked that rear bumper.

I liked the side pic, front and rear looks a lil off to me, but thats probably because I personally dont like the v1 spoiler or the tails, Nice car otherwise!
