Hi everyone,

This is a followup thread to:

I was able to have my wheels and tires installed today and I'm so amazed at this setup. It definitely deserves to be lowered now.


Specifications:

18 x 8.5 +15 ET Axis Reverb with 245/40/18 Nexen N3000

 

Looking good man not bad at all...

 

You Should Have Went With Wider Axis Reverb's!!! But You've Got Rims Right!!!

 

looks ok. Shouldv went staggered. 275s in the rear

 

Thanks guys. I would have went staggered, but I got such a great deal on this setup. It was too hard to pass up!

 

I see tires but not wheels.

 

hey bro! you finally got it! very clean!!

 

+1,

 

I know what you're saying. It was about to rain and I didn't have time to take some good pictures. I'll get some up though.

 

What wing is that? I don't recall seeing that one before.

 

Thanks for the photo. That is a hollow spoke wheel? Alawys been a favorite. Good value for the buck.

 

To tell you the truth, I have no idea. The guy that owned it prior to me installed that. I have no idea what brand it is. If I were to guess, I'd say it was some off-brand... But I think it looks really good and I'm going to leave it. If you can figure out what it is let me know!

Yeah, no problem. I will get some better looking pictures up. I was standing on a hill when I took that side shot, and I think that angle accentuates the wheel gap, plus the colors seem kinda off due to the camera... It looks better IRL.

Oh, and yes, they are hollow spoke. They feel so much better than the wheels that were on my Z when I bought it. Faster speeds feel effortless and it handles much better overall.

I'm also very impressed with the Nexen N3000 tire. Previously, I was using Nitto 555's, and calling those a performance tire is over-promising a lot.


Here is my Z the day I bought it. As you can see, these wheels are a huge improvement. Whoever owned it before I felt the need to not trade it in with the OEM wheels... which I would much rather have had besides those hunks of chrome.

FYI, this picture accurately shows the color of my car.
