I would assume they are Enkei rims, but I could not find them on their site. I love the way they look, makes me debate having a lip or not.

Thanks for the link! If I only new what size they were? I would guess 19x10.5 and 19x9.5. Then again I guessed in my original post and was wrong.

Anybody have experience with this brand? How do they compare to other name brands?

off topic but damn if the RED on that Z wasn't a hot color... I did see those wheels close up and did like them. They have the look of the indy car with they way they mount.

BTW if you want these wheels I can get them for you cheaper than that.

That paint job does look pleasing. Not real crazy about the front bumper where it meets the hood. Other than that the car is very well done.

The wheels don't seem to have any writing on them either. Can they be ordered without the writing? Are there different finishes?

I have Sparco wheels on my Z as well. I know on mine the centercaps have a clearcoat over them. I stripped off the clear and polished the centercaps. The writing can be removed same way I did mine.

There is a red Z locally that runs those wheels. IIRC they only come in up to an 18" size? They look ~ok in person, but they look absolutely gorgeous in motion.

Was looking at these at Discount Tire and they list two different offsets for each size available 22 and 38. Could someone enlighten me on what the difference will be between the two. Thanks!

I know who owns that 350z. The shop that did my stereo in NH. They were doing the stereo in that Z. I talked to the kid that owns the Z and he said Razo wanted there wheels on the car for the show because he had brand new 20" volks on it when I saw it so those wheels must from from razo. The car is crazy in person and it wasn't even together when I seen it.

If anyone wants to know more about it let me know. Also the guys at wickedcas.com the work they do is unbelievable. I was there the last night of the build of the system but I had to leave so I didnt get finished pics of the system and also jotech did the engine and there were shooting for over 700 horse.

OK, The wheels are sparco wheels. I believe they are 19" The car was supposed to be displayed with Enkei but Last minute change was made.

Those wheels were overnighted from Japan for th eshow, That shipping cost I am told was as much as the wheels

Here are some more pics of the install fallow the links on the site. Make sure to check out th eother Z installs as well. www.wickedcas.com

Checked out the pics of the install. That system has got to sound absolutely insane. Do you happen to have any pics of the exterior from the show? Thanks.

Ok, The wheels are from Enkei... I'm sure because the car is mine... I'll pm you with the details GB... Don't worry Nazar it'll be in a Magazine soon I promise!!!!!! I know this isn't the thread to post about car audio but I wanted to thank Nazar and Justin for the great job, hard work, and perfection that their shop provided me with such a short time frame to work with... Do yourselves a favor, no matter where you live even if it's a 2 to 3 day drive go to wicked cas if you want the best working on your car...
