Don't take the show cars as how they are driven on the street. I watched the tuners setup their cars for the shows. They drive them into the hall and them drop them down on their coilovers for the shows and raise them up after the show is over.

I buy ALL my wheels direct from Japan. So I laugh everytime I hear someone say they are the only one selling a wheel or part here in the states. It is funny how you post pics of the TAS show and you didn't even go.

value:
one question for you.......do you get waranty from Rays if you buy it directly from Japan? if not, just be quiet.....
cause I think DTD is gonna have all the manufacture support, since it's a REAL distributor for the US.

Discount Tires is the EXCLUSIVE USA distributor for this rim. DTD posted to let others know where to buy them. Who cares if he attended the show or not, they are photos of the rim on a Z. This is exactly what I'd want to see before buying/ordering the rims. Why insult him for not going? Many others posted images from the TAS and they didn't go either, do they make you laugh as well?
In the future, valuetl, I would ask that rather than posting a negative response to one's post, you consider how it might be perceived by others.

Currently there are no width options for the 18's. Im sure that will change shortly though.
Value...if you can get them, Im sure it will be pretty hard to ship to the states and come anywhere near our price.

I by no means meant to "hijack" the thread. Only to inform readers with Fact. Value very well may be able to buy from the japan market, but at a higher cost + shipping to the states. Value as being part of the States may also be declined when he tries to purchase these due to our contract, but I do not know. I posted these wheels up long before, the thread has just slipped down after some time.

On one of the earlier responses on this thread someone mentioned that these wheels are available in white. Does anyone have more info in those? They would look hot on a ppw if the color of the wheels matches the pearl on the car. Any info would be appreciated

Uh...Mr Discount tire Direct... I have a couple questions...
-The G games wheels sold through you; will they carry a RAYS logo or a Wolf Logo?
- If not, will the 19inchers be the same quality as the Rays.
-Will 19 by 10 inch rears fit a track model and still be able to display some nice lip?
answers appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Jules,
I might be able to shed some light before tomorrow when Todd gets the note..
The wheels have the Rays logo stamped on them, as seen in the image she posted. They are made by Rays so yes, they will be the same quality as other Rays. (Rays makes them, not discount tire)
Size wise, yes the 19 X 10 will fit the rear of a track model, the only problem being that rubber isn't overly easy to come by in that size. It's out there, just not as common as smaller sizes of course.
Hope that helped, keeping in mind I don't work for or with DTT. I am just a fan, like you.

18's come only in 18 x 7.5 widths only. Colors are silver, gunmetal and gold. We buy wheels direct from Rays. Rays says to run a 19x8 +24 and 19 x 9 +28 for the Z33 in their release info fax that was faxed to us from Rays. We carry a full warranty on all our wheels from all our vendors.
