Default Wheels came in!

So my wheels came in! They are Vossen CVT's in 19x8.5 +15 with 245/35/19 in the front and 19x10 +20 with 275/35/19 in the rear. I think they look great especially for a 19x8.5 in the front. I need to lower it a little, but that will come. But for now enjoy these pics.

Congrats, but not feeling the style. After all of your posts and "deciding," you settle with 8.5s, srsly?

Haha yea I know but the discount tire wouldnt put a 255 on a 19x10 for the front. But I'm happy with the way it looks. I'll prolly get some spacers some time. Thanks on the congrats. And BTW I am the first 350z with these on so that's probably why you are not feeling it.

That must be the reason.

did you purposely have the spokes going in different directions front to rear

because he doesn't like to take advice, he thinks he knows it all... crap sizes and offset aren't the best

Who ever mounted your wheels/tires screwed up, the wheels are directional and are meant to sweeping forward. The left rear is correct, left front is backwards. So you need to swap the tires on the front wheels and swap the wheels to opposite sides, if your tires aren't directional you can just swap the fronts around with out removing the tires.

Quit being a holes about it. I already realized thye put it on stupid and I'm gonna go back and get it fixed. I don't care you don't like my sizes. I am happy with my purchase. I achieved the look I was going for pretty much and I'm good with it.

I'm just saying that might be it but I guess its not. So if you don't like it, whatever.

I don't think I know everything. I don't know why you think that. But I still live with my parents(I'm 16) and they heard the guy and discount tire say it would be unsafe for a 19x10 in front and wouldn't let me buy it. And someone in this recommended a 255 for the 19x10 for the front. So I had to buy the 19x8.5 if I wanted to get these wheels. I know 8.5 is not that desirable. Sorry I couldnt satisfy you. Lol

That's it!

I couldn't figure out why I was getting cross-eyed looking at that photo

You mean, "wouldn't buy it FOR ME".

Corrected.

Not a bad look though.

But for the large dollars your folks shelled out for brand new vossen's and tires, maybe not as much of a POP as might've been hoped for.
