Chrome rims FTW!!! Definitely what I'll get.

Nobody has any links to gunmetal rims on a black Z do they? What sucks even more than paying $3K for a pair of rims is paying $1K for a pair of rims, getting them mounted and balanced, putting them on the car and realizing... they're god awful ugly.

No its an in-stock wheel that he carries, but because there are never any pictures of them i guess no-one purchases them.

Hey Diablo,

Did you notice any positive/adverse affect on handling after you upgraded to the +25 offset Rotas? How is turn-in and stability after the swap?

turn in is slighting wider now, only noticed because of the immediate feel when parking, but its not a huge difference. Handling is great but i can't say its the offset since i got larger than stock tires. Stability improved alot overall.

Thanks man... been reading for weeks trying to wrap my head around all the nuances of offset and the implications of messing with it + applying what I know to rims OTHER than these Rotas and realizing I still don't fully understand... :P

I'm probably going to make it easy on myself and just buy the damn Rotas, but I'd still like to be able to look at another rim I like and know whether it'd work or not, ya know?

the +30 P45R with a 5mm spacer would be perfect for your car. It would give it a nice aggressive stance and at the same time allow you to run a properly sized tire without rubbing.

UofA350Z - yes it's very close to the Nismo silver.

Center caps only fit on the +20 offset P45R's.
