Default Proud new Z owner (and wheel question)

http://miami.craigslist.org/brw/cto/1846012062.html

It's a Miami car but I'll be up in Westchester county, NY.

I spotted a pair of wheels that I REEEAALLY want, but I'm not sure if they'll look flush with the offset.

http://www.wheelstudio.com/view-whee...9/vehicle-3632

Unless I'm mistaken the stock touring 2003 wheels are 18x8.0 +30mm all around. The ones I want are 18x8.5 +35mm. Will these look ok? Thanks for the help!

You want an offset 25 or below.

You want wheels in 9.5 width in the front and 10.5 width in the rear.

Those wheels do not have very good off-set for flush look. I'd look for at least +20. There are many with the Time Attack that you are looking for http://www.wheeldude.com/gallery2/v/..._showId=115230

You should really consider buying all 4 wheels, a pair would just look silly. Good luck and welcome!

welcome! those offsets are too small imo. Search for something else with the wheel specs that dikspiel said.
