in my opinion.... NO

the offsets are really bad for a Z

for $2300 you can find better offsets on an old and vary popular rim for the Z

the offsets are NOT really bad for a Z... they are obviously not overly agressive, but they will be look fine. If you have concerns, ask him for pics on his car or ask to meet up to see them mounted on yours before you commit to them.

IMHO the tire sizes are not right for those size wheels. I like a little more meat.

Without better pics, you have no idea what condition the tires or wheels are in. The tires could be shot in which case the setup definitely isn't worth $2300

Oh, how I regret doing business with this kid! This punk has been a my350z forum member for exactly 41 days now. He's had his car for about 2 weeks. Hasn't even been to a meet yet.

That's really too bad... not a good situation for anyone involved. Sounds like this 'kid' could learn a life lesson in patience. IMHO it doesn't sound like anyone was lied to in terms of the condition of these wheels like currency implies. Sounds like an honest mistake that could have easily been corrected if given a proper chance. Hope things work out
