He's a sponsor here and posted some pics on the previous page. I believe these wheels are quite expensive.

 

http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/wheels/...xt7/index.html

searched but found no threads with anyone that has these wheels.

anyone has them?

pls post pics

 

Thats because there isn't a set that will fit the Z in the country yet.

 

oh i see. thanks

first wheels on the site...those will fit...i run 18x9.5 +12 all around...fronts can fit 245s fine...rear you will have to roll the fenders...call up logan from aspec if your interested or im him...aspeclogan

 

that's too aggressive for me
i'm thinking of 18x8.5 +25 front & 18x9.5 +20 rear

 

That is going to be a super stretched tire in the front as well, with absolutely no curb protection from the tire.

 

245s on 9.5 really arent too stretched...i hear ya about the curb protection tho...i curbed on of my works pretty badly ....most pple on these forums with volks get 245s in the front tho...

 

yeah, what Z1 said

the new emotions (XD9 at least) rears have been here for a while (18x10+18) but the matching fronts (18x9+20) are coming in next month, theyve taken forever on them

the XD9 has better sizing for Z:

18x9+20
18x10+18




as far as the XT7 goes, 18x9.5+12 all around is definitely doable, but a bit too aggressive for some folks.

18x9.5+22 all around would be a better bet

 

are the XD9s a little concave a long with being deep lip?..

 

no

 

18x10+18 XD9 in bronze finish for reference:





18x10+18 in WMB finish for reference:





no concave on the XD9

the XT7 has the most concave (18x9.5+12s silver & bronze):

 

A Spec - what's the color code of the XT7 in silver in the pic of yours?
as shown in my first pic the Top left colour code is 'MGS' which looks way darker than your 'silver'. are they the same colour?
also just found out that the 'MHG' bronze is NOT the same color as the Emotion CR Kai that many own.

 

Hope this helps to clear up confusion since I'm sure Francis is not in the office just yet

1. The silver color they show (the matte one) on the XT7 is called MGS - it is the same color we showed on the XD9 picture in this thread (color code MGS or Medium Grey Silver)

2. The bronze is the SAME color as the CR Kai like I have on my car - color code is MHG

 

i just read that a powder coated SILVER is available in the USA.
to me that 'silver' XT7 in the pic still does not look anything like the Matt Grey silver in pic 1.

about the CR Kai, i guess the MHG is different than the 2005 CR Kai. dunno about the 2006 CR Kai. cos i sure saw a 2005 CR Kai & a 2006 XD9 side by side and the colors are different. the MHG is more similar to the Volk Racing XE37 bronze

 

the silver in the bottom pic, as A Spec pointed out, is the WMB color - same as the CR Kai is offered in:



The bronze of a CR Kai has not changed since it was introduced back in 2003 - color code is for bronze is MHG and it's the same for CR Kai and XT7 and XD9

 

Haha its Logan not Francis

Anyhow yeah, what Z1 said is on point.

I like the new gray silver (MGS) better than the previous gunmetal (MGM)

Powdercoating is available in the US, I just had a set of CR Kai done in Silver done for my personal car.

 

anyone have pics of the xd9 or xt7 on a z?
