Lightbulb I don't know what wheels to get?

I was completely lost when I did search on wheels. Is there a wheel 101 for someone like me. I have no idea what to get. One thing is for sure, the stocks have to go and I need black rims with either orange lining like superhiros or red ones like time attack and something lighter then stock preferably. I don't know what offsets and numbers I need. I have never had rims but now is the time. What does the stock come with? Can someone help me ..



Thanks

i believe stock offset is +40. The lower the offset, the rims/tires will go out towards the fenders more. Most people usually go with +20 offset, but if you want definite flush then u would need spacers. Stay away from high offsets and do some more searching then you will find your fav wheels.

This is almost as close to fail thread. We can't decided for you. go check the medisa share section or member's gallery. there is website here you can check some out.

good luck on your search

yep, i would aim for around 20mm for the offset.

start looking for wheels advertised to fit the 350z, like in the vendor section. remember the specs, then go look for wheels you like with similar specs.

when you find something you like, post it in here so we can double check for you to be helpful.

Yes I will make my own decision but its stuff like right offset and stuff I was looking for. Thanks. I will post here and check for opinions if I find some.

BTW do you have a pic of your wheels SAM?

Ok I like those CE28's & ENKEI PK6. Don't know the specs but I want 18"

if your going to just be an asshat, why even comment? some of us already volunteered to help him out since we do not mind being nice to people.

if you are looking for 18's with nice offsets and are also lighter than stockers.. i would look at the rota svn's or any other rota wheels, they are all nice.
