275 in the front?? I bet your steering wheels feels like a bag of concrete mix. And that tire profile looks huge in the rear..

you could of spent a little more and actually made it look good..

care to post up the picture of them on the scale weighing 12 pounds?

it's probably the same scale that tells your momma she is under 200lbs. ha!

Wow, the 350z community shows it's age once again............. Nice wheels MM08, love the TE's. Some might have used a different tire selection but what's done is done. All you have to do is drop it now and you'll be golden. Also, you should try uploading your photos to photobucket so we can see bigger pics. Welcome to the site.

Ride quality is pretty good IMO, you should have no problem with 275s

So much hate going on in here.

The wheels look good. You may have rubbing issues in front when lowered, but every car is different. Ignore the haters, because they have nothing better to do. Though I think you 12 lb/per wheel claim is exaggerated a little.

I did a quick google search on this, the 15x7.5 TE37 is 15lbs, I'd imagine your wheel is probably 18-20lbs. Very light, but certainly not 12 lbs as stated OP.

I like the flat black (from what I can see)

I think you're going to have serious rubbing issues if you drop it too aggressively since your sidewalls look too meaty.
