What model/year/edition would those have come on? Even on the '03 - '05s I've seen there's been the multi-straight spoke silver painted wheels, the track edition wheels and the boring straight spoked with the dimples on the spokes. If these are stock I've never seen them before.

they are not oem for a Z. No 350z has had a wheel come with more then 7 spokes from the factory.

yeah, they were only offered on 1 year - '06 as an option from the dealership. Much like the 5 spoke chrome rims for the 03-05.

call your dealer. just make sure they know you aren't looking for the Nismo rims, these are Nissan OEM rims.
