Question Looking for advice on the nismo LMGT4 wheels

Hello Everyone....!

I was going to go with volks but it's expensive and wont fit my budget at this time. I found the nismo wheel thread and fell inlove with the model LMGT4 While doing some research in here.

I found a decent price one on ebay and would like to know your opinions. Can I find it cheaper somewhere else. Should I go with 18 instead? What about the offset?

front 19x8.5 25 offset and rear 19x9.5 30

Ebay link --> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/19-Ni...spagenameZWDVW

EDIT-- nevermind of the ebay ad. I found out he has negative feedback and I wouldn't want to take a risk. Can anyone recommend me a place that might have them for a decent price and wont screw me over?

Looks like a pretty good price to me. New ones run around $575 each. Nissan price is $670.

Search "Brinster34" on EBay. It is actually a Nissan dealership Parts Dept. but they have really good prices and you know you are buying from a reputable source. Just a suggestion

Or you could get Rota P45-Rs for half the price...

I have a brand new set of the 19" in silver that I got from Brinster34 on Ebay, but decided to go with a more aggresive offset and bought different wheels. I am new to the forum and Z's so I only listed them in the South East for sale section so local people could come see them, but if you are intrested I can send you pictures and ship them to you. I am looking for $1475 which is exactly what I paid for them. These have only been out of the box to take pictures of them. Let me know if you want any other information. Thanks

I got my 18" nismo wheels from brinster34 (Chesapeake Nissan) on ebay for 1325.00. Good deal and I really like the wheels.

What color would look best for a PPW Z? bronze or silver?

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to give him a try on ebay.

I think gold would look hot on a white Z, especially with the nice clean Nismo wheels...

I agree on the Rota statement... they look very very close to the Nismo's there and don't cost nearly as much. So if your on a budget its a good way to go. I have them on my PPW ZR and LOVE them! I paid $700 for them as the rears were slightly used (but in perfect condition). They are 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear.

DOn't buy knockoffs... just save up and get the real thing. Buying knockoff is like buying mall-printed Armani shirt. You'll feel kinda embarassed at times... atleast at yourelf. Not unless your not a brand name guy go ahead.

I've never once felt embarrassed to own a set of Rota wheels and I always get complements at local meets. I also don't think any of our customers have ever once felt embarrassed to own a set of Rota wheels. Kind of a weird analogy you have there...
