Hello All - Does anyone have any idea where I can purchase a set of these Rims for my Z? Also, as a relatively new Z owner, any words of wisdom when purchasing new rims?

 

Are those wind generators to power your stereo? The faster you drive, the more power in the subs, kinda' thing?

 

Yes - don't get those rims! LOL

 

words of wisdom: don't buy those wheels.

but if you want them, Veilside sells them iirc. check veilside's website. andrew racing or something.

 

lol that was the 1st thing i though when i read this. those are hideous imo. sorry to let you down if you liked them but to each his own.

 

I don't hate them.

 

i wonder if they make the spokes go the other way too, from the looks of it it probably acts like a fan cooling off the rotors... WOOT

 

Go for something you like man. If you like those go for them i personally wouldnt put those on my Z for the life of it. Just my .02 cents. If you want performance go with lightweight wheels such as volk's, nismo's, rays, etc. If you want looks then go for whichever youd like.

I have those Rims. I like them anyway.

 

Check with McDonnell Douglas.

 

hahaha.^^^ Maybe Pratt & Whitney??

 

oh ****. lol!

 

Those rims will add at least 50+hp . . . at least your Z will be able to paddle its way upstream if you ever ended up on a river or lake.

 

dang those are ugly IMO... but to each his own.

 

Uh..from my understanding you can't get those Veilside Andrew wheels anymore unless you have some sort of connection through Japan. Correct me if I am wrong here....

 

I was looking it over and my head is spinning.

Well make sure to buy a turbo kit as well...maybe get a package deal. See if they can install it and run vents to the intercooler for the turbo. What other purpose could they serve because they are not hot. No, I am not being serious.

Where were they designed....Holland??? I think they were inspired by the windmills. Now theres a thought...maybe you can harness the wind from the rims to power your car

 

O.K...I get the point. I will look for another set of rims. Loved all of the comments. Any other suggestions for the new rims for my Z?

 

For a performance oriented car like the Z I always suggest Volk, Work, Enkei, HRE, iForged, BBS, Advan, SSR, Rays (gramlites), Nismo. I know it's hard to be different cause everyone has one of those brands. But locally, it's still very rare to find those on a Z. Unless you're in Cali of course.

 

the rims with the lips that change color....I forget who just put them on.

 

The entire forum is filled with photos. Pick what you like. Buy it.
