Whats you guys think of these wheels ??? Model (RT)

 

They are great looking wheels, but unfortunately ROH only make one set that fits the Z. The R/T is not it.

 

I think you might be mistaken. I plan on buying these very soon.

BTW owner of this car is on this forum 350Zzzz, hes awesome ask him anything.

 

Thats the wheel i wanted originally however after talking to a distributor he told me that the only ROH wheel that fits the 350z is the Drift-R due to the offsets.

Here is the thread with all the information. Maybe I was misguided but this guy seemed to have known alot about the wheel. Maybe it can be done with spacers or something..check it out..

So where can you get these wheels? Group A says they don't fit.

 

I'll ask Gerald and see what he says.

 

Just heard from Gerald, in regards to me telling him several people have told me the ROH-RTs witll not fit, his exact words were . . . "I am not sure how that rumor got started, the rims that I have are stock ROH-RT no modifications whatsoever." hope this helps

 

I like the look of the Drift-R wheel, anyone have any experience with them. Will they fit my z? I was looking at getting some 18"

 

I emailed JD Wheels to see if they have R/Ts that will fit. I'll let you know what they say.

 

Hear anything?

 

Nothing! Same as Group A....no response. Pisses me off! Haven't been happy with either place and both say to email for questions on wheels.

 

Hmm well if you'd like I can ask Gerald more, he told me he'd be willing to take me to the dealer who actually suggested the wheels to him. Again he said he has not modified the wheel in any way. Also hes running 295 tires on the back, widest I've heard of. Looks pretty nice

 

Let us know!!!!!

 

You know..Group A is the distributor that told me about the wheel in an email. And of course i deleted it, but those were his exact words, that the Drift R is the only wheel that ROH makes that will fit the Z due to the offset. I wanted to purchase the "Fury" wheel however I went out and bought a set of GT-AV's after being told these wouldnt fit. I love the volk's, dont get me wrong, but that p**s' me off that I was misled like that. Proof is in the pictures. The wheel obviously works.

 

Z1,

Are you ever going to actually PM a price for those Drift R. You have answered everthing except for the prime thing, A PRICE ON THE WHEELS, please.

 

Here is my email conversation with JD Wheels.....

I have the 4 Door competition coupe Z by the way....

Scott,

I do not have any 18x8 RT's.
I have 18x9 RT's in Black Ice.
I have 18x10 RT's...I will have to double check fitment.

Do you have a Coupe, 4 door, or Competition 350Z?

I have 18x8 Fury's in Silver, no Black Ice and they are only made 8" wide.

Thanks,
Kim Dailey

Z1, let's do it, I need an answer, well actually an answer to my question, as opposed to all the other answers that you have offered.

 

Who is Z1 that your talking too??

 

Whoever gave you that info probably had a better deal going with some other brand and/or he may be having some other rim in mind.

I have 18 x 10 & 18 x 9 ROH-RT with BFGoodrich GForce KDW-2 and they're hot; got lots of compliments. The rims fit like a charm.

JD Wheels has the R/Ts in 18 x 9 and 18 x 10. The offset is 24mm. These wheels do fit....obviously. I think they look great. I opted for a larger wheel though.

Ironically the place that told me they don't fit is the place that sold them...Group A.
