Discount TD even though your company has beat Tirerack as far as timing in finding aftermarket wheels for the Z. I am very disapointed with the selection. The highest grade wheel offered are Antera's. These IMO are not high quality wheels. What do you mean by you can get them?

TR and DTD have completely different marketing structures. I buy direct with about 95% of the market and can get just about any wheel you want at a competitive price. However we can only carry so many different lines at once. If there is something out there that you all like, I am more than willing to take the extra time to do some research and get pricing for you all.

Giovanni Wheels
Has anyone seen the Giovanni wheels on the G35 Coupe shown in Freshalloy.com.
I think these rims are sweet and would like nice on my CS 350Z. Does anyone know the model of these rims?
Thanks.

I am building a customer a custom set of Aero for the 350Z, but he is in Missouri
What do you guys think about
18*8.5 25mm offset
2.5 inch lip
18*9.5 22mm offset
3.0 inch lip
our wheels are come in different finishes. Painted, powdercoated, brushed aluminum or polished [NOT CHROME]
anyone know if there are problems with this offset. I basically got them for rays engineering in japan. Is there any difference between the Japanese 350Z or US spec 350Z. If anyone in Southern California wants to bring their car over for measurements please contact us at 818-245-1135 or contact us at tech@iforged.com. I can offer a pretty big discount on a set of our wheels for this 350Z owner

Call I-forged, these wheels are very similar to the HRE and you WILL be pleasently suprised at the price difference between the two. HRE wanted just over $4000 for the 545 polished 3 piece FORGED WHEELS just like the 3 piece FORGED Aero's! I will post pics when I receive them from I-forged in a few weeks!

Before I take anymore orders on the 350Z I want to finish the first set for my 3502GO and get the right offsets. If anyone can help me figure out the correct offsets for this vehicle or direct me to a website that has the info it would be greatly appreciated.
This is what I currently have

Here is the link to the specs

So to prevent rubbing I will bring the offset in to
18*8.5 +25mm
18*9.5 +25mm

I am In So Cali, I can try to help you
I forged, I am in the Inglewood area, but I have aftermarket wheels already. I may be able to help you with your sizing, but I am out of town with it right now. I drove to the Bay Area for Tako's meeting/dinner on 20's, yes I said 20's for those whodon't believe.. Yes they are chrome also.. I plan on getting back to So Cali by Tuesday the 8th, maybe if you still need assistance we can connect.

So Nice, We Had To Do It Twice
For those of U that think that it couldn't be done, here is proof times 2. & we were able to use the tire pressure monitors, with no spacers, no adaptors, no rubbing.. Yes that is 20's from day 3 on the street.
#238
Oh I dont doubt you that 20s can be done. Once I figure out the offset on the 18's and 19's the next size I am going to try is 20's. I wish we could put like a 4 inch lip in the rear though, that would be really nice
#240
some 19" Seneka wheels we just did for a E46 M3 for Euro Tuner.
1.5 inch lip in the front
3.0 inch lip in the rear
the 350z with have 2.5 lip in the front
and 2.0 inch lip in the rear
