Yeah, that's where i got them from. i bought them thinking they were going to be reps, but once i got to looking at them harder, they are in fact authentic nismo wheels. They have all the same markings, including those on the hub side of the wheel. The guy i got them from was really nice,i hooked him up with a window motor.
Pretty good but why did you place the thread here instead of in this thread in the wheels & tires?

When he first told me they were knock-offs, I was like okay it's whatever, I will still trade. I asked for pics of the wheels, and when I got to looking at them a little harder as far as markings go, they appeared to be legitimate. I am uploading pictures right now!

I just switched my 19" from my 370z to my 350z and dropped the 20"'s on my 370z. I thought it would be fine since the 350z was wearing 20x10 no problem with no rubbing. Well, it's not good. Turn the wheels and they wider nismo rims grab the wheel well body panelling. I went to remove it this morning and realized that if I do the electric wires and the open air filter will get completely splashed with mud and rocks. Also, I just had to order spacers for the 370z because the 20's, of course, are hugging the front calipers. Now I can't drive either until I fix the problem or switch the rims back.
Spacers ordered...I'm not switching back now. But spacers won't work for the 350z. There just isn't enough tire clearance for over 10" wheels. My next fix is going to be to buy some heavy duty scissors to trim the body panels around the tires without exposing the wiring or the engine to debris from the wheels. I could drive the 350z if I want to wear the Yoko's out and hear lots of grinding. I don't recommend the switch if you're not prepared to deal with this.

Neutrino.... Offsets man, offsets... Tell us which Nismo 19's specifically & what are the sizes & offsets of the 20's
And IIRC, the 370z tires are larger in overall diameter, right?
