Yep! 18" though. Work Meister S2R Burning Black (aka HyperBlack). No pics yet, she's in the boutique trying on her new NISMO clothes & accesories.

I'd be glad to help you get either, but if its down to those two and only those two...Id say 5Zigen on your ride. You can see some Zs and G35s rolling on those at http://www.5zigenusa.com in the gallery section.

The picture you showed of the 5Zigen is the one piece which is only available 18x7.5. They also make a two piece of the same wheel. Heres a pic of the 5ZR Copse you showed on a celica


And here is the Hyper5Zr in 19" 2 piece

The 5zigens look better than the Konigs, but those 5ZR's are super heavy. I'd go for a lighter forged rim like a Volk or SSR...or HRE if you can afford it.

john350Z...

Do you still have the 19" Volks"? If so, email me at mcduck@earthlink.net

Thinking about keeping some 19s around for car show purposes, but want to stay close to my iForged Senekas design. Those seem to fit the bill. Let me know...

BTW, when you post, please provide widths and offsets, too.

I'd rather go with the 5Zigen, but I would choose a six spoke wheel.

Default Wheels

I like the first ones better. The second ones I think I would get tired of pretty quick. I just ordered the BC06 from bcforged.com I think they will look pretty good on the super black also. I don't want to change your mind but take a look at them. They are a highly polished wheel which almost look like chrome. They have a lip but no rivets. Should look classy on the Black Z.

You can check out http://www.importhookup.com/ and search the forum for 5Zigen. It should give you a number to Discount Tire Center, thats where i got my SF-Challenge and i saw a set of Hyper 5ZR for sale. They have pretty good prices and they pay your sales tax if you go pick it up.

I am going to go with these wheels on my SB in 18x8.5 with a 40 offset for the front and 18x9.5 rear with a 35 offset, both in Gun Metal. I have had a time locating a dealer for them though.

I was going to buy the 5 Zigen hyper's until I found the IForged Aero's. I personally vote for the 5Zigen Hyper's with a black chrome or gunmetal finish for your super black Z!

Thanks for the compliments....They are 19" Volk SF Challenges in an 8.5"width front and a 9.5" width in the rear. I'm waiting on a backorder for the blue Ray's lugnuts. I have Bridgestone S03's in a 275x35x19 rear and a 245x35x19 front. I'm using 21 and 23 offset. My car has been lowered with the Eibach pro's also.

Are those Volks true 2 piece wheels or are those rivets just for show?

Great wheels! Where can the the IForged Aero's be bought...is there a website? They look chrome, are they? Do you know if they come in 18"? Should look sharp on a Super Black, shouldn't they? TIA
