Nice looking wheels but you should have considered upsizing the tires to 245/275. In any case, as long as you're happy with them - F-the-haters.

That's what I thought when he said +15 all around
Doesn't look +15 to me

If you like it - who cares what we think but since you posted pix of your car beware of constructive criticism and not get butt hurt.

I agree with some of the posts above.

As stated i dont want volks or anything of that matter. The main focus of a car shouldnt be on the wheels. Why would i spend as much on wheel/tire combo than some of my other cars are even worth?? I got a good deal on them and am overall happy with the purchase besides that i want them to stick out a bit more. However i still dont want to roll my fenders. And for the guy who asked about the springs they actuqally ride good. No bounce and dont lower it to a point that it becomes a problem. Would recomend for someone wanting a nice drop. I knew i was going to get flammed for buying tsw's but i still sleep at night. I do look at alota cars on here that are really nice and all but at the end of the day im 19 and buying a house so the z isnt top priority. Just tired of rolling on my old time attack black/red konigs that iv had on there. That color combo doesnt go well with the silver.

Yea spacers are a definate. Just dont want to roll the fenders so im just trying to decide the size. Rims and tires are brand new just got them put on hte other day so new tires wont be till next year but ill be getting a different size and all that when the time comes. Dont get me wrong the baller wheels are nice but i just cant justify spending tha kinda money right now

I think they look pretty cool. I'm glad they make you happy. No, they're not the coolest/most expensive wheels but I'm assuming that like me, you have more important things to spend a few thousand dollars on. It doesn't matter what you do on here, people will find a way to bash you. You get wheels; they say you should've saved for better wheels. You roll with stocks thinking one day you'll have money to buy better wheels; they bash you for having stock rims. It's lose/lose.

Hey OP, I like those TSW's, I would just think about a different tire size next time your due for a change. And get whatever setup you like, Im sure many people on this forum could mock my roadster as well, but just remind yourself many of the negative comments are 16-20 year old virgins who focus on mods like replacing the OEM ashtray for a $200 carbon fiber version for that extra 3 Oz gain for racing their buddy's AWESOME 1994 Acura Legend. I am a new member, and most people on here seem like good folks, just don't listen to the haters. ESPECIALLY THE ONE'S WITH A SHIRTLESS JOHN CENA AS THIER AVATAR!!

Just ignore the wheel ******, the wheels' design looks fine, you just need some spacers to move them out a bit.

the whole idea of getting aftermarket wheels is to make your car look better not worse. I made the mistake of buying some msr rims with horrible offsets when I first bought my car for 1,500 and then sold them for 1/3 of the cost. Now I know better, to wait till I have enough money for what I want so that I won't make the same mistake.
