GT7's on SB
 

Installed silver Volk GT-7's a week or so ago on my SB 350Z. Tires are Toyo Proxes T1-S 235/35/19 275/35/19. Here are some pics:

damn that looks good too bad i dont have any money much less a job to but some new rims trying to save up some money for a audio system first tho . im not really feelin the stck tracks that much any more .

did you get +24 and +23 for the offsets?

Yes, those are the offsets, I think those are the only offsets out for the Z.

Ravaz - looks hot man, I hope you like em. Gotta love the lips!

Thanks man, I love them. I tried to get them on sooner, but I couldn't find anywhere that had Toyo's in stock. Some national backorder or something.

Are you sure the tire size for the rear wheel is 275/35/19?

They look more like 275/40/19.

Please confirm.

I'll have to go double check later on. I forget now because I tried to order one of the two and they were out of stock. I'm pretty sure they are 275/35/19. I'll check at lunch and post then.

wow...the more i see them the more i don't want to wait to get them. i have a set of gunmetal ones on hold...just working out a deal on them! man....i just wanna get them and not wait....haha!!!!

Looks great. How deep are the lips? Any problems with rubbing?

Not sure how deep the lip is, i think the front is like 2" and the rear is 3". No problems with rubbing at all. Car is riding great, those wheels and tires feel lighter then the stock touring wheels do.

Looks amazing! How much to the wheels weigh with the tires? Did you check?

Thanks! :)

I have seen those on a couple cars. After seeing yours I am so glad I ordered them. But I got them in 18x8 - 29 offset - 2" lip front, 18x9 - 29 offset rear - 2.5" rear. I am not a rim expert but I had the offsets researched by a couple shops and that is what Volk says the correct offsets are for the Z and the 18" GT-7's. I hope they look alright when they get here. The only thing that sucks is a 90 day maximum shipping time!!! But from the look of your Z, well worth it.

Thanks. I didn't check the actual weight, but from picking them up, compared to the stock touring wheels, they are lighter for sure. I think sometime next week I'll get a chance to weigh them, I'll post the results when I do.

No they also got some other offsets that'll work on the Z.
Mackin and a wheel shop I was going through tried to pawn me off some +36 all around offsets for that beautiful tucked look even though I had specifically asked for +23/+24. Dunno if they have offsets with less positive offset for an even more aggressive stance. You really gotta know your stuff or go to dependable wheel shops cuz these dealers/distributors have little shame. I remeber Wheel Wharehouse tried to sell me some wack GT-C's back in March with lame offsets as well and told me the higher positive offset looked better on the car cuz it fit better and they tried to jack me on the price too haha. Buyer beware :)

those rims are hot! how much do they usually go for in 18 and 19 inch, is there a big price difference?

I just double checked the rear wheels. They are 275/35/19.

I LOVE THEM!!!!!!
