Sorry if this has been asked before. These look nice, and its not 2k for the rims. Just debating here, and cant really afford 2k or more for rims..

Thanks

The picture below is 18", Fondmetal 9X...however a 19x8 19x9 combo is also available for less than what you are looking at on ebay...plus it has the lip that seems so important on this site. Anyway...$1042 for the set of wheels delivered.

I actually like the top wheels a bit better. Their clean lines seem to complement the clean lines of the Z very well. The bottom wheels are a bit too busy for my tastes.

Thanks

Thanks for the link. Sent a pm to that gentleman to find out more.

Sorry i dont know what the offset is. If it doesnt say in the ebay listing, then i have no clue. Remember, wheel illiterate person here.

I need to know what tires i should get with these rims. And will the tire pressure gauge work with them as well.

thanks
