Well finally after sitting in my gargage for about a week 1/2 because the vendor (who shall remain nameless) send me the wrong lug nuts, then sent me the correct lug nuts but didn't send the tool. Unbelievable luck but anyway here you go. Let me know what you guys think. For more pics visit my website in my sig, go to 350Z and click on volk wheels.
Oh yeah almost forgot. VOLK GT-C's in Gunmetal w/ polished lip in 19x8.5 & 19x9.5 with 245/35/19 & 275/35/19 respectively on Toyo's. The pictures don't do these wheels justice, they look amazing in person. Took so long for me to decide on which wheels to get but I know I made the right decision. Wow, what a difference this make to the overall apperance of my car, I couldn't be happier with the selection.

i just got GT-Cs in 20s on my car and they are incredible. I love them, they make my car look 1000x better. I would post pics but i dont have a digital camera, only a camera phone, so the pics would come out crappy, haha.

My year is a 2003 but didn't buy until April of 2004. I drove it for a few months but now it stays in the garage until sunny Friday's or some weekend driving.

front is +27 and rear is +24. Front is Face 1 and rear is Face 2.
Srivero297
Couldn't agree more, it doesn't even look like the same car anymore. I had the front wheel on for a few days before the rear wheel was on. Even the wife who could care less about this stuff commented on how much nicer the car looked now, funny how when I showed her these wheels before I bought them she said and I quote "Those are ugly" Boy was she wrong and she had to admit it that was the best part

Bought them from 350zonlinestore. Don't really think I would recommend him though, he still hasn't sent me the tool to put my wheels on yet, I had to go to some specialized tool shop just to find a 12mm Hex Socket. Bryan never once apologized for all the grief he caused me, I never understood that. Hopefully Srivero297 had better luck than I did.

Not lowered, stock height. No plans of lowering it, the car is low enough for me, it scraps some times as it is. Don't really see the point in spending that money for springs to lower it .5" but that is just my opinion.

Started a new thread b/c I didn't think this one would get many answers b/c it's more hey check out my rims but here goes a shot:
For some reason when I hit 70 mph the wheel vibration is noticable. I did install the hubcentric rings even though they were a b!tch to get on. The rust was a little surprising behing the track wheels but I soaked them in a little motor oil to help them slide the way back on the rotor. The wheels sit flush against the rotor, I used a air compressor with a impact wrench so those babies are on there, I left the tork on 2 so I didn't over tighten them but they are tight. What can this be guys? It not really noticable at 65 but something about 70 and up. Any thought?

I can all but guarantee your problem is just a simple wheel balance. Take your Z someplace with a Hunter GSP9700 and have it done correctly. I had the same problem on my G35 sedan when I put 20's on it and having them re-balanced solved the problem completely. Good Luck. BTW, I asked if your Z was lowered because your car looks perfect as it is! I'm waiting on 20" GT-C's now, and your 19's look good! Most of the time, 19's don't come close to filling up the wheel wells!
