I have a stock 350z and im debating on getting new rims or powder coating the stock ones. My reason for wanting different rims is the fact that my car doesnt look very aggressive the way it is now, i think its because of the gap between the tire and wheel well and the tires are too sunken in to the wells..im new to the site and tried searching but im not sure what to search for any ideas to make it look better?

 

lower the car... throw a body kit and put a huge huge huge spoiler on it..

 

nah i dont want to do any of that...what do spacers do? i know this is probably a rediculous question

 

do the search forum hehe and its ridiculous *

 

How about a pic of the car now so we can see what it might give you a more aggressive look??

 

ttthatd help

 

dont powder coat the stock ones. i say get some wheels and suspension. then you go from there.

 

He said he has a stock Z, do you really need to see a picture of one?

 

yea its stock to the bone...can someone just tell me what spacers do? i tried searching it brought up about 100 threads that pertain to spacers but none of which appeared to give a newb definition

 

Spacers set your wheels out further.

 

thank you spork thats what i was hoping for i wasnt sure it spaced out your clearance

 

25mm spacers at the rear and maybe 15 in front? spacers will make your wheels sit wider.
But if you're planning to get rims in the future (which i recommend you should), keep the money, then save up and get the rims with better offset.

then get a set of lowering springs (if you got extra cash or if you're planning to to go the track, go for coil overs)

then get a front lip.

sideskirts rear diffusers and spoilers should be your last concern after all the engine mods and stuff.

 

Yes. Need pic of stock Z. Mine is outside, and I'm too lazy to get off the couch to go see it.

 

well i live on gravel which sucks but i dont have another option at the current time, so i would rather not go lower or put a kit on it, just something subtle to make it look a little better, i think the spacers are exactly the type of thing i need now i just have to decide on keeping the wheels or getting different ones

 

If you are going for an agressive look you need different wheels end of story.

 

alright good enough for me new rims it is

 

let me revise this. THIS IS REAL IMPORTANT!! YOU NEED TO GET NEW WHEELS WITH AN AGRESSIVE OFFSET. IF YOU GET NEW WHEELS WITH A WEAK OFFSET ITS GOING TO LOOK HORRIBLE SO......... DO YOUR HOMEWORK OR ASK A FORUM MEMBER BEFORE PURCHASING YOUR WHEELS.

 

rite on

 

Same way i felt about mine just got some wheels and satisfied it for a while but i want more so now coilovers is my next step

 

Needs an aggressive application of aggression.
