20x8.5 front and 20x9.5 rear


20x8.5 front and 20x10 rear


20x8.5 front and 20x10 rear

which one would look better??

Go back to point zero. Save more money, and buy better product.
Resale on these wheels will be AWFUL. Out the door they depreciate
+/- 80%. Buy used works/volks/or... nismos/5zigens.

Please Please Please don't support these idiots.

i understand the want for nice, quality, expensive wheels but some people dont wanna or cant blow the big money for those wheels.

i wish i had money to burn on my Z but theres a lot of other things id rather spend my money on.

Priorities own me!

Yea but if you dont have the money to spend on a QUALITY product for your QUALITY Car, then dont do anyting at all.

Why would you buy an expensive Italian leather couch and put a cheap *** vinyl cover on it??

Ding ding, you wouldnt!

what if u dont want a stock lookin Z? and who cares if the rims weigh more or they're not as strong when your not trying to race it and u paid a 3rd of the price of volks.

to each their own. As much as i love cars,and volks and nice stuff, i would never dump as much money into my car as some people do.

I needed new tires for my stocks so instead i got my wheels and tires for $1200 brand new. couldnt pass that up

Don't listen to all these Volk owners, if you're just using these wheels on a daily driver, they are fine. So what if they bend, replace it is a lot cheaper than replacing a Volk. Out of the three wheels, only the first one looks good imo.

what if u dont want a stock lookin Z?
Then you dont need to have a stock looking Z...You can mod it PLENTY without it looking like rice.

Do anything you want to YOUR car, I was just putting my .02 cents. Attach a mexi-mobile big metal spoiler to it for all I care.
