New Shoes Size 19 - Roja Formula 7
Just bought these wheels last week from ebay. They came in and were oxidized as crap, but after 6 hours of polishing/buffing they came out amazing...I couldn't be happier.
Roja Formula 7
Rears: 19x10.5
Fronts: 19x8.5
Wrapped in Pirelli Pzeros
The Look of changing over from stock wheels to aftermarket 19s is amazing it makes the car look 100% better in my opinion. These wheels should get me through the summer and then I want to try to find some gunmetal wheels to match the paint..I'm addicted
If anyone is interested in purchasing these...they will be for sale, just let me know, ive got tons more pictures...
Here is a few pics that we shot last night.

From Orielys there was this stuff Called "Never Dull" from Eagle One.
I have been searching for info on what to use to clean wheels and i didnt want to use any harsh chemical based stuff so this seemed worth a try. It is a cotton type "Wad" cleaner. You just pull a chunk of it out and rub on your wheels till it turns black and keep rubbing until you remove all stains/water marks etc...
Then i just buffed it out with a White Cotton Towel. Sounds easy, but I literally spent 1.5 hour per wheel wiping that stuff on and then buffing it out till i couldnt see any more oxidation. Now they shine like perfect. I cleaned teh back of the wheels also just because i believe it had never been done, who knows how long it will last but for now it looks pimp.
PS. There is a video on the eagleone.com website about how this stuff works if you that interested in checking it out.

Nice wheels.
The sizes are actully 19x8+25 and 19x10+30.
The wheels have been discountinued so your lucky to have a set.
They look sharp I had the Formula 5's on two cars and I loved them. Now im running the Ro_Ja by Rays.
Just be careful if others are buying Ro_JA wheels off ebay. Some vendors sell Ro_JA wheels that are completely the wrong offset.
The correct offset for the 350z were only availible in a 19" application. The correct sizes are 19x8+25 and 19x10+30 for the rear.
The 18" Ro_JA wheels are not the correct offsets for the 350z.

Cool, Good to know, i actually bought them mounted w/tires so i wasn't 100% sure on the wheel sizes, but the guy thought they were 10.5 rears, and 8.5 fronts...
I love the offset, they sit almost flush with the fender in the rear and a little tucked in the front.
I would like to get a bigger set of rear tires for the rear once these are wore out. They currently have:
275/30/19 but i would like to make them a bit tall on teh side wall and maybe a bit wider w/out messing up my VDS.
Any suggestions?
I was thinking 295/35/19 or 275/35/19 ?????
Also, I need to figure how if the TPS sensors will fit and how big of a deal it is to swap them from my factory 18s?
