Keep that money, save a bit more. Buy some nice real rims from the marketplace. Those plain look nasty. And as far as the previous comment about you needing 19 or 20s ignor that. Look around the galleries there are plenty of pics of 18 19 and 20 for you to see how they look. I personally like 18. Around +20 should be fine depending on the with.

But yea check the market place man!

Never mind. I thought this was important. Important enough to say “thanks” or simply reply.

If you're looking to spend 3500 for used authentic wheels and tires go ahead. If not varrstoen and XXR make some nice wheels for cheap. From the looks of it you might like the XXR 521s. They offer better sizing.

you can EASILY run 295's without rolling fenders. Just buy the right offsets. I have 295's on a 10.5" wheel. Just stick to around a +28 on a 10.5" (or comparable offset) and you will be fine. I am lowered on coils and have no issues with anything

255/45s would be bigger in overall diameter whereas the 265/35s would be shorter in overall diameter. Choosing between the two should be personal preference, or at least depend on your local autox course layouts.

My bad, I was just questioning the term "rice" no personal foul intended. I didn't think you would be so sensitive to my comment. Next time I will try to be more careful with my choice words as to not hurt your feelings. And yes, your example is spot on as it can be applied universally whenever someone posts something online that you feel is an attack. Once again I should have been more warm fuzzy for some of our more "fragile" members. I want to apologize to the 350z community for my harsh comment and hurtful words.

Thank you.

Default Question to moderator

If I have another thread on my rims, can I also post pics of them here (18")?
I don't want to merge that thread over here though, since very few people come visit this thread.
Thanks in advance....
