Hello everyone, I just bought a 2005 350z roadster. I've been wanting one for years and just never found the right deal till last week.

2005 silver 350Z roadster with 44,000 miles
6 speed
20 inch chrome wheels
Just installed a pioneer AVH 2400Bt sound system
I am totally loving this car,I also own a 1967 chevelleSS and I think i'll be driving the 350Z more than i do the chevelle.

One thing I'd like to do first thing is add a small spoiler to the rear,Nothing real big just something to break up the truck area.I"m looking on CARID right now to find one.

Welcome and congrats. As already stated by my fellow enthusiasts, those wheels MUST go. Make it so.

Get on craigslist and find some sucka who would trade straight up for some nonchrome 19's or 18's. I'm sure most things would be an improvement.

Found a set of factory z wheels to put on my car,not sure what is a good price to pay? These wheels come with 70% good tires..I think cooper fronts and Goodyear rears..225/45 and 235/45's. the guy wants 400$ for all...is that reasonable for stock wheels?
