Needs wider tire so rim protector is effective...otherwise you're gonna have a bunch of scratched up wheels. Even though rim protector doesn't work that well, it's better than having the rim of the wheel exposed like that.

 

Rick@Status's 350Z 19x9.5 +7 19x10.5 +7. His setup definitely sticks out too and it looks pretty good to me. It all depends on your taste, I personally like it when it sticks out a little bit. To each his own.

 

Those are effin bad Andy.


When I went to Status to get my fenders cut, Rick's car wasn't there. That $hit looks sick Rick! I love CE's (came real close to getting a set).

 

lets get the ***** rolling on the setup..

 

damn, how much did a set of those cost u?

 

It didnt cost me anything. We used this wheel as R&D for a proper setup for Z/G fitment.

 

305 sounds good to me.

 

Looks good, can you post some more pics?

 

are the spokes more concave than the 18x10.5 +12?

 

Looks nice Andy!

Can Volk make these 11 inch wheels with a higher offset, such as +29? There is plenty of clearance on the inside surface, and it would help tuck the wheel in more, to allow for a nice 315 or larger rear tire.

Are you selling these? Sorry if I missed it earlier.

 

^if i read correctly, he said these are the only ones. theyre not bad for free wheels.

 

andy,

how about i trade you my:

..........stock

..................... 18"

............................06 TOURING rims

+ cash for those rims

i'll even throw in some powdercoated stock 2003 17s



what'da ya say?!

 

They're slightly more concaved, not by much though.

 

Shariff, the original idea was for a 18x11.5 +29 but in my original stickied thread, people were too scared of running that wide. From our test fitting, a 18x11.5 +29 would fit just fine, it would have a few milimeters of clearance from the shock body with a 315 tire. I think we are going to go with a 18x11 +25 instead because of the publics fear of rubbing. Plus, with a +25, youd be able to fit a 305 no problem, 315 with fender rolling and a bit of negative camber. We will see, we are still working it out. If you guys have any suggestions, let me know.

Yes I am selling these. RAYS will be making me custom sets that Ill be selling to the public but it will be a VERY limited amount of production.

 

They werent free wheels for me. Theyre just samples for R&D purposes, they may be up for sale later though.

 

No thanks but I have wheels in stock I can sell yah

 

looks good!

 

IMO a 10.5 or 11 inch rim with 27-28mm offset is about as perfect as you can get for 315 or 325 tires. The guys who want wide rubber aren't going to be running coilovers with the spring over the coil in the rear

 

List some tires that are 18"/ 295 to 315 and have the overall diameter close to the OEM so it doesn't mess with the speedometer accuracy. I was just shopping for new tires for my 10.5 X 18 +43 SSR wheels and couldn't find any so went with the PS2s in 275/18/40.
