Default Will this work on a Z? (Saleen Wheels)...

I am thinking about putting these Saleen (http://www.wheelreplicas.com/saleen.html) replica wheels on my Z. I think the offsets would be OK and the rears would look really aggressive, plus they are really cheap. What do you guys think? Anyone have pics of this?

It will fit and even look good [in the garage]
It is too heavy. Get some used Rays from the track models for similar price.

YES they should work. PM Nowell, on the boards. He's in the Mid-A region mostly. He has a set on his Z and they look really good IMO.

+1
Until he or someone else pointed it out I didn't even know they were mustang wheels. His were black on a Chrome Silver Z.

Do not pick wheels for a 350Z that you like. Conduct a poll. Follow the results like a lemming.

LOL I'm just reading everyone's comments but anyways... I've put Saleen wheels on the 350Z. I have a Silver 00' Saleen S-281 and I couldn't resist to see the look of the Saleen wheels on my 350ZR. Doesn't look bad in my opinion. The size is right and the offset is money. But also I do agree that mustang parts on a 350z is somewhat of a sin. If you want the looks then go for it. You'll set yourself apart from the others cuz other than having my car in the garage with them on... I haven't seen anyone else.

FORD wheels are the same lug patter, but bigger hub ring; you'll need a hubcentric ring kit to make it work.

A long time ago I had 97' COBRA wheels on my 91 MAXIMA for about a year once. FORD wheels are heavy!
