Talking My new RH PRO J5's in Superblack

After searching the internet high and low I wasn't able to find any other Z's with these exact rims so I figured I'd post them on here. I just put them on my Z today and couldn't be more happy with them. I bought them from www.wheeldiscount.com out of FL, shipped ready to go.

So far I have Nismo headers, cold air kit, indash DVD with touch screen headunit, custom box with Alpine Type R which fits under the strut bracing perfect, and tinted windows. Near mods include either a nismo gound effects and wing, or the vizage one. I love the vizage kit, but the fact that it's all fiberglass is turning me away to something else.

The wheels specs are 19x10 rear, 19x9 front, with 275-30, and 245-35 respectively. After doing some research I decided to go with the new Faulkens as well.

I'm not sure how to attach more than one item for now, but PM for more if you're interested.

HOT

Can you post a pic of how stretched the rear tires are on a 10"?

I've got 9.5 and 275/30 and they seem stretched.

Thanks!

Default top view

Some one asked about the tire being stretched on the 10" rim. I didn't notice anything excessive or out of the norm looking.

The rear lip look perfect... not to excessive in my opinion.

Thanks, I ordered some of that crystal guard stuff to keep them lookin' good. Hopefully it gets here soon so I don't have to clean off too much brake dust. Any of you tried it on your wheels? I plan to cover my car top to bottom, wheels and all.

Wow, they look SO sweet!

I love the Super Black aka black chrome.

My RO_JA's are getting done right now with the same coating but just pure chrome. Man I may have to call them up and change my order to the black chrome instead!

Any more pics of the face and some quarter views?

Describe the black chrome in person. Does it look like a gunmetal or chrome? I was afraid that the black chrome would look to greyish in person.

with a lot of light on them it looks almost the same color as the normal chrome assuming it doesn't have anything to reflect against. But once mounted on the car, the black chrome really came through because it reflects much darker than the lip... I'm assuming from the pavement, etc. I was hoping it wasn't going to look too ghetto being all chrome in some fashion or another, but I think it still holds a racing look pretty good. The pics don't really do it justice. I didn't even have them all on yet, and people in my neighborhood were stopping by the check them out. I'll see if I have anymore quarter views for ya...

also, all these were taken once the sun went down. I had all but one left to bolt on when it went down. I was really surprised by the difference in them with the side being shined on. I'll get some more on here for you in the next day or so though. Thanks for the compliments... I just can't believe more Z owners don't have these.

Default another quarter panel view for ya

yeah, those cobra rims are nice too. What I like about these one's is that they're black chrome in the middle with a normal chrome lip. Being Racing Harts I'm hoping they're clear coated well and not some chrome that will chip like some wheels.

Default night pic

They're not mounted yet obviously, but this should give you an idea of what they're like at night.

the j5s are definitely my favorite set of wheels that i have had on my z yet.
