(2007) US standard = 5 spoke Rays? UK=6 spoke Rays
I noticed several threads from you guys talking about your standard 18" Rays but they all seem to be 5 spoke.
The standard 18" wheel for the UK market is a 6 spoke (spokes curve into the center and each has 2 small 'dimples' on it). This is from the UK Nissan site...
Does anyone know the correct Rays code/product ID for these & any more details (eg weight), as I don't know how much the 2005 model weighed!
I checked the 18" thread and they were all custom wheels pics and various searches only seemed to find the US 5 spokers.

Stylish six-spoke alloys from wheel expert RAYS complete the picture. But they don’t just look good. Following the overall philosophy of the 350Z they help improve performance too. Each wheel is 4kg lighter than those used on 2005 models.

Hmmm... so I may be able to search the forum for 'track' on pre 2007 cars to get the info I need for the UK 2007 model wheels. Odd but OK - will give it a go later. Thx for the 411.

So maybe in 2-3 years the UK will get what the US have now!
Why does Nissan treat us like a poor cousin, getting old 'cast offs' from the States??!!
Oh yeah, because we're a tiny little island with delusions of grandeur which would fit into Texas several times over.
Sigh....

UK 2007 models get the 6 spoke rays from the pic you posted, we don't get any others apart from Nismos in 19" which are available as an option, but that's it!
Have a look round the UK site in my sig for more location specific changes UK will never get the US wheels, US standard were fitted to our GT4 ltd edition, so can't be fitted to standard cars!
