It's not the money, but thanks for your input.

No problem.

So what is it then? I'm really curious. I can't think of one downside to rolling fenders. I'm just trying to help you have a look that I'm willing to bet you will enjoy more.

Anyways, rubbing is a result of more that offset alone. If you aren't dropped, then I doubt you would need to roll your fenders regardless unless you're hitting some HUGE bumps. However, I was dropped on Eibach springs with a 10.5 rim with a +23 offset and I rubbed on moderate bumps, mainly just on the interstate. It would probably be close with a +30, but you might get away with it.

Very interesting hood, never seen that before. Probably would be too good to be true, but it looks like with the cowl it may fit over my stillen s/c. What hood is that?

test fitting these... I threw on two 245 wide tires solely for the test fit, so don't judge me. The fronts have on a 20mm ichicba V2 spacer.

This is a great look! I would love to see those on a Z too. If I found a good deal on those wheels, I would have a hard time saying no...

The 370Z Nismo wheels look pretty good on the G.

I would love to have a set of those for my 370Z Touring/Sport.

I ALMOST bought yours ruthless but I looked and looked and LOOKED and decided I like the 18's a little better than the 19's in appearance and tire cost, performance, etc. I was extremely close to buying yours a month or so ago as my Z is also an Ultra Yellow so I got a real good idea of what yours would look like on mine from your pics.

I feel the same way. That is why I want 18"s, the race tire selection for 19"s is practically non existent.

I was thinking about trading with aadosx but I need a 10" + rear wheel.

Thanks Gingervitis!

Well, looks like I've sold the 18's to Gatorman! I'm glad to see they're going to a good home. I'm so sad to see them go but I've always wanted 19's for my car. Looks like I'm the opposite of you guys lol. But yeah, for the track, 18's are definitely the best choice.

Looks like I'll probably be rolling on stockers for a while until I can save a little cash and find the wheels I want. I just hope I can find something as mint as my 18's are. Ruthless, let me know if and when you want to sell yours! Funny, I actually considered offering you some sort of trade, but I knew you wanted something wider. =P

Thanks to AadosX for dealing with all my questions too as I'm a newb and he's provided a lot of helpful info. I'm basing my Eibach springs, spacers, etc on what he already has based on his pics so sometime within the next month I'll be set! Picking up his wheels next Sat and looking forward to seeing Bama (even though I'm a Gator )

Thanks, I'm deciding on lugs too. Either yellow or red are my choices so far. Also, if anyone has lug nut recommendations pls advise as all I know about them at the moment is color. I'm looking for the best ones for the lmgt4 18" and at least one that locks. thanks

^Great lugs, just a tad too expensive for my taste.
