They appear to be Kojin wheels. These are in the Tuning series of Enkei wheels.
I think Enkei’s Tuning series is often overlooked. These are high quality wheels at a very reasonable price. They are not available in as wide configurations as the Racing series, weight slightly more, but cost less.

Thanks. I was going to roll them before I went to the tire outfit, but I got stuck at work too long. They definitely need rolled, though.
Thanks.
Yes, they are Kojin wheels. Compared to a lot of rims, they were fairly cheap. Around $270.00 each.
Thanks.

As you discovered, the Enkei Tuning series is a great value for wheels with perfect widths and offsets for the 350z. Your 18x9.5” 15mm offset Kojin wheels look absolutely great on your car. You won’t find a better value for the 350z in wheels.

In fact you can drop the car 0.6” and not need to roll the fenders. I did not need to roll my fenders or install additional suspension parts when dropping my 350z slightly over one half inch and mounting Enkei Tuning wheels (9.5” wide with 15mm offset).
Your wheels look very nice on your car. Good job selecting the right wheels. You are going to really like those Enkei Kojin wheels. They are very light weight high quality wheels that will look new for years.

You might want to wait before rolling the rear fenders. It appears from your pictures that you are running a stock suspension. If that’s the case, you won’t need to roll your fenders for a 9.5” wide wheel with 15mm offset.

Are you saying that currently, the suspension won't compress enough to let the tires hit the fenders? Because they are currently flush with the outside of the car.

Thanks. The member "terrasmak" confirmed. But I didn't know jack about rims before I started reading on this site.

If that’s the case, rubbing will be minimal. In fact you can drop the car 0.6” without rubbing and without a need to add suspension components. And... A minor drop improves appearance.

I plan to drop the car some, but that is a separate facet of research. I do remember 0.8" being the max on something, for some reason, and 0.6" falls in there. I don't want to drop it too much. It's already miles from practical in stock form! But I agree, it needs some drop.
I'll likely roll them tomorrow. But the next "big" thing is exhaust. I just ordered Invidia Gemini with single layer titanium tips. (never could stand rolled tips)
If I were to start a thread dedicated to this car, where I could begin in stock form, and let it evolve from there, which section would I put it in?

I was also reading that like why wouldn't you be getting the wheels with the correct lug pattern...
But I think by hub adapter he is talking about is the little plastic ring that goes over the hubsentric ring so their is no play around the hub...
I could be completely wrong though.
