What's with the arguing over 18's 19's or 20's. Unless you are professioanl race car driver and you go to the track every week, who cares? Even if you do compete regularly, in my opinion and assuming similar cars in same class, whether you win or lose has less to do with the rims you are riding on and more to do with driver skill. I have seen all three setups and I like them all, depending on the rim chosen. On my 94tt, I have racing 18 inch Hart C-5's and on my 91N/A 2+2 I have $1000 19 inch Chrome 5 Spoke Motegi's (I used to have 4k Momo's-but the Motegi's looked better)(it has also been lowered and tracks fabulously), I have not decided what to do about the 03 350z, but I am leaning to riding on 20's. Since I don't like to be my cars up on the track, I really just want a rim that looks good on my car. The TT is setup with turbo uprgades, nitrous, blah, blah, blah so I decided to spend more money on the Racing Hart rims than rims for an N/A. After spending 4k on Momos in 93 for the 91 N/A, I ended up changing them out in 2002, becuase they were dated. I did get $500.00 for them including the tires, but still not a great investment. So now, I am finding it really hard to justify spending 10% of the value of the car on rims that you may not like in 5 years. Of course, I don't sell the Z's I buy, I keep them. For those who know they will get rid of their Z's (blasphemy, blasphemy I say), I guess that may be ok, but you still take a heck of a beating to have those 2-5K rims for 2-3 years, that only people like us know about.

The weather sucks this week, I will try to get pics of my Z's on when better weather permits.

Loved just about everyone of the pics in here. When I first bought my Z I was against 20 inchers. I guess when I thought of 20s I pictured something out DUB magazine. But if it's done nicely, which most are, then what's the problem. So, I ordered 20" Axis Pentas yesterday and they should be here on Monday. Hopefully early in the morning so I can get them installed and get some pics up for you guys.

 

 

what's so funny?

 

if I get 20" I will get the TE37...

 

Indeed, those are absolutely gorgeous, I'm with you 100%!

 

I lowered the car with Eibach Prokit springs...Bout 1" in front and 1.2" in back....I dont remember my offset but that is the key to no rubbing issues. Hopefully you got the right offset when you got your rims..Any reputable tire/Wheel company should be able to tell you the nessessary offset for a flush fit and no rubbing...I went through Avalon Racing...Paul is the man to speak to....My tires are 275/30/20r and 255/35/20f Nitto 555's...Want to go 295 in the rear but dont know if it will fit without rolling fender..Hope that helps...

 

Is tha an MZ? Those are nice rims though.

 

what is the offset in these? staggered?

 

20" axis mods have the offset of 37 for the front and 38 for the rear.

 

I got my 20" Axis Pentas today. I will get pix up when I get the Tein S techs on, maybe Wed or Thurs.


This is the stance I'm hoping to achieve.

Edit: pics removed
