Default Check out my new wheels on my PPW Roadster Z!!!

Just got new wheels installed on my Z. 19" Maya(Maido) GR5.

F: 19x9 with +26 offset R: 19x10.5 with +29 offset.

What do you guys think?

I had these wheels on my Lexus SC430 and since I got new wheels for my SC430, I put these wheels on my Z.

Luckly, SC & Z have a similar offset.

Thumbs up

I personally like the Maya's better, but most people seem to tire of the old 5-spoke design.... I myself have always preferred a spoke wheel.

Your 3rd set of wheels? Dayum.... There are little kids starving in China.

Well of course I'm partial to the first set. SSR's kick @ss

See The 1st Set Here

Trading forged wheels for cast?

That just makes the SSR GT3 club more elite. Especially since they don't make them anymore.

But all the wheels you had were winners. But your moving in the opposite direction. Should have been the Maya's, the Volks, and then aspiring to the SSR's. The holy grail of wheels.

Not planning on it yet. I need to lower my Lexus SC430 first.

It looks really high.

By the way wheels are Exxe made by Work. Thanks to Josephs at Revhighonline.com. He gave me an awsome deal on it.

The offsets are for 350Z but it fits on SC430.

That is funny I had the same car too, just sold mine though....how do you like the SC?


Do you think the Z is quicker stock??? I think it is more fun to drive what do you think. I will say two things, that damn stereo in that car is the BEST I have EVER HEARD!!!! Also the quality of the interior is so damn nice isn't it!

I think the Z is much faster though even though the SC has a V8. Maybe the Z would lose on the highway at higher speeds, hmmm.

Love the SC430. The car has lots of torque. I think you are right.

Z is quick but on the highway, there is a good chance SC will win as long as it straight away.

The suspension on SC suck. It feels like you are riding a boat.

I know this is my 3rd set but actually, I had the SSR GT3 for short time on my Roadster. I orignally had the SSR on my previous Z (Silver Touring) until Nissan bought it back.

When I got my Roadster, I decided to go with 19's since SSR GT3 were 18's.

I put the Maya on because I have better chance of selling the Volks than Mayas. Maya's are more expensive wheels but Volk are way more popular.

I have the SF Challenge for sale on the forum and I probably got over 25 PM's from people inquiring about the Volks.

I have over 5 guy that are really interested but most of them want shipped which I prefer local pick up. We'll see.

Whether is Volk or Maya, I like them both.

If worse comes to worse, I may just keep the Volks too as spare since Maya's will fit both my SC & Z.
