You guys reminded me to take a walk down Nismo Wheels Thread lane and it was funny to see my car as the third post on this thread.
5 years, 4 sets of tires and still have not seen something I would replace them with.

I had these wheels on my last Z, sold the car, owned 4 cars since then (including E46 M3 which I was hugely disappointed with), missed the feel of the Z so I got my current one, and bought my LMs back from the person I sold them to for this Z. There is literally nothing else I like.

I recently switched from these red Titek extendeds:
To these short black Muteki's
Now that I switched to the shorter lugs the 10-hole design of the wheel is more pronounced, I am not going to run longer lugs anymore!
Let's see some new pics!
We're still waiting for your pics too
Your Z is so clean Angelo, I never see anyone with that color.
Let's see some updated pics!

Can you provide a list of specs on your car? Is your roof painted black?
I have a red one I'd like to look just like yours, except with whatever my stock Grand Touring RAYS wheels are... Painted or powdercoated black

I had spacers with these wheels on my last Z and not really a fan of it. In my opinion, the car needs to be slammed for it to look right. That's not really practical unless you just look at it and don't drive it like its meant to be. At the proper height for optimal performance, the "hellaflush" look doesn't really work. My car was put together function before form, and spacers + lower would go against that.
The car was already pretty low in these shots. Much lower and it wouldn't have been very fun to drive.

275/40/18 rear, 245/40/18 front. Standard issue 18x8.5 +25 / 18x9.5 +30 sizes. Those pictures of my Brickyard where it looks stupid are with 25mm Concept-Z rear spacers.
