Heh. As for the Konig, loving the face, can't decide if the lip will drive me crazy after a month.

Please don't do those Konig's with the rainbow lip. Look at the Gram Lights 57 Pro with the real titanium lip if you wanna go that route but the price is considerably higher that the Konigs.

Thanks for all the input. Even if you don't like em.
What i meant is that the insurance company will give you the money for what it cost to buy new factory wheels from Nissan. Not what it cost you to buy them used on the internet.

#1 rule: no polished lips with black faces, especially from cheap rims

#2 rule: no multicolored lips

#3 rule: no brands that you have never heard of or can't research

#4 rule: ><

I guess I should call Nissan then for the price. Guess I'd just feel silly if insurance paid for stock rims because I still have the originals - but money is money.

And sorry, I'm not interested in getting a new boyfriend. Despite his lack of judgment here, he's been very good about being responsible about the matter. As long as I get my Z back I'll get over it.

Again, thanks for the input all.

for the record: I am not interested in dating you.

second: the point is, they give you the value of the stock rims which will more than pay for the aftermarket equivalent in most cases. and I don't know why you would feel silly committing insurance fraud... it's quite common.

Do some searching before you just go out and buy wheels. I know girls usually don't know much about these things, but if you gain some knowledge on wheel brands and offsets you're going to love yourself in the morning.
