Hehehe, I'm a bit of a noob. So what can happen, they just crack on me? I'm not huge into performance so I don't care if they're a bit heavy or something.
What about these Petrol Octanes Petrol Octanes cheapos too?
Or these TSW Nogaro, is TSW a decent brand?

A guy I know went cheap, he bought Sportmaxx rims. Now he has rims that are dented with the paint peeling off of the spokes. He claims he didn't hit any crazy pot holes. I didn't believe him at first, until I saw a different guy in the same parking lot with the same rims that were also dented. His rims got like this in less than a year! He thought he was saving big $$ by spending around 1k for rims with tires, but now he has 1k worth of rims that look crappier than the stocks which are in perfect structural and aesthetic condition.

They are not staggered like most 350z wheels, so 235's all around and they are cheap tires. Most wheel setups are staggered 8.5 front and 9.5 or 10" rear with 245 front and 275 rears for tires. So those are cheap wheels, non staggered, crappy tires and 235's all around. Thats why they are cheap.
Really they shouldn't even list 350z as a car these fit. Yeah they bolt on but are they right? Not really.
See these wheels: http://www.wheelfire.com/scontent/Wh...=Non-%20Brembo
They are 8.5 / 9.5" wide and 245/275 staggered setup. I'm sure the offsets are crappy but spacers would sort that out. They are not really much more money than what you are looking at. Look for something like this instead.

Not sure where the generalization of the Nexen N3000s being crappy tires came from; they're actually pretty good for the money. But definitely save up a little more for other rims.
