I disagree. There are plenty of people running that tire size on 18s. An 18 with a 35 sidewall just looks too small unless it is lowered. I am also going with that tire size for mine. But it also depends on what rim those tires are mounted on, and this isn't one of them. They do make the tires look huge. I would agree to going back with stockers and selling those on your car.

Why am I here I don't know,, Never any support for a fellow Z owner have I seen hear always what they would do, or If it was my car>. Dude the rims look good! the main thing is that you like them!!! never ask these guys there opinion.. because there going to give it to you anyway. Dude go with what you want and what you like. I have found on this site it's best not to advertise any thing that you may like or feel good about, because this Fools get off at making you feel like &^^$%^. good luck!! NICE Z. (see that didn't hurt one bit)

Some people should just not even venture into modifying their car. Reminds me of those kids with the civics who just go buy the first set of wheels they can get for $800 just to get something on their car other than stock.

Advice: just get a set of Grand Touring Wheels, and then in the future post a picture of something your interested in to see if people cringe, then you'll know whether or not to spend the money. Sorry to be so harsh but I get embarrassed when I see a Z like this. I don't think the creators of the Z had that sort of thing in mind when they created it.

I'm sorry, I also do not like these new rims.


I really like the stock wheels that are on the '07+ Zs.



But I really like the color of your Z.

They would look at BEST on a black car lol...but now that i see its that San marino blue, nooooo.

You dont put black wheels on a dark blue lol.

Also too much going on wheel wise...You have an odd patern, a red lining which i hate and then those silver bullet things around the wheel which look tacky.

Go for a nice simple look. Thats why our 07/08 stockers rock so much...

Do some nice Volk, BBS, Enkei, SSR or Rays on that bad boy

the black wheels on that car look like the guy that shows up to a business meeting wearing a really nice dark blue suit with black pants under it.

You just dont do it.


I dont like it man. Sorry. Save up for some volks. Maybe mag blue color?
Just not black. Especially not the fake "time attack" look

Ultimately, if you purchased the wheels for YOUR OWN liking, then only your opinion counts....

if you purchased these wheels to blend in with the modified 350z community, then I see why you would ask for the forums opinion...

So ask yourself who are you trying to please? Yourself or Us?

If you like them, then that's your taste, I would just ask one of the Moderators to delete this thread...

As for the majority of the forum and the people who have posted on your thread, the wheels are not to the liking or standards of the forum, which usually are Volk, Work, SSR or Enkei admirers..

On dark colored cars, IMO, you should've gone light to contrast the car, or atleast a silver lip'd wheel would've sufficed IMO... my

^^^ Well put....
It's tough love here and you ask for the forums opinion....prepare to get burn.
You can own a set of volk/works...if it doesn't have the right offset/size it won't look good.
But they're volk/works...help keep the flamage to a minimal.
