Love the wheels!! The deep dish definitely looks hot. I saw your rim and tire sizes you posted. I was wondering if you could tell me what offsets you are using? And if you dont mind can you tell us what price you paid for the wheels and tires?.

I will find out what the offset is. I paid $2500.00 for the wheels and $800.00 for the tires ( toyo ts1's) still waiting for the tires though. I work at a honda dealership so i will be the one putting those bad boys together.

I think your question was directed at me. I'm not sure, but if it was I thought there would be a lot of questions that would get lost in this "LONG ASSED THREAD" so I put the info in this new thread....

Ahhhhhh! But there is a reason this thread is soooo long my friend. There are alot of posts (new ones) that have most likely been covered in my "lengthy" thread. Should one take the time to actually look through it, they may find not only answers to their present question, but also informative info that would eventually come up.

TXSTYLE...don't get your undies bunched. I agree, it's a great L.A.T. that's why I posted here as well. But I got bored (no offense) of reading the I'm gonna get some wheels stuff and decided to post an "I've GOT wheels" post. I'm not against posting in this thread and will continue to do so, I can multi-task. If it's the "points" you're concerned about...you can have mine.

Uhhhhhhhhh. O.K.
It's comments like this very one, that show the age/maturity (or lack there of). "Points" are not of concern to me bro'. Keep "multi-tasking" and try and refrain from the negativity especially where I'm concerned.

I'll consider myself warned. "bro'"

OK, maybe i use this site for the wrong reasons (to learn and discuss the Z), but what are the "points" all about, do like win a rubber ducky after 10,000 points, or what is it?? (sorry for my ignorance)

I bought the z becase its bigger inside, and i didn't want a convertable and I think it's alot better looking then the s2000. I work on the s2000 all the time, don't get me wrong they are great cars and people that own them love them, but they just don't do it for me, and besides just because it revs to 9000 doesn't mean there fast. Nothing like a v6, 287 horse is better then 240. I meen you have to rev to get anything out of it unless you have a supercarger. Then thats another story, beause I drove one that was blown and I was impressed. I have driven my friends viper gts and thats scary fast, every time I get in it I start sweating, but for 4 cylinder it's all good.

zland

thanks for input. I know honda makes a good product and i thought you would think highly of them so for you to prefer thje Z brings a good perspective on the REAL merits of the Z rather than argue with other S2000 owners and have a biased (on both sides) arguement without really being able to like and pros/cons clearly. Thanks for post, Jeff

ZLAND, just to agree a bit, my family owns (partners) in a few car dealerships (among them 2 Honda, 1 acura, 1 infiniti, 1 Nissan, 1 Mazda). out of these dealers there are many cars in the similar price points either on the market or soon to be (RX-8), including the Z, G35 coupe 6mt, S2000, CL-S, etc....

Even though the Z was the HARDEST to get (availability/allocation) (besides the RX-8, since it isn't out yet), It was the car that ABSOLUTLY grabbed my interest the most. I love the car, and would drive nothing else (within reason) in its place.

I haven't noticed any corelation between points and wisdom. They do come with "time served" on the board though. I believe you're using the board for the right reasons, but the points gig...well....do you want mine? If and when you get to 10,000 I'll personally send you the rubber ducky.

My post was in fun, but there are those that take this forum a little too seriously. Personal opinion should be welcome...regardless of the opinion. This thread IS a tough read and too many people not reading the entire thread, (don't blame them) asking and posting THE EXACT SAME THING! I interjected a little SMACK and the world's going to end? Personal attack? A threat? I don't get it, nor do I care. Keep your eye on the prize...I'll start trolling around the rubber duckie forum.

I had the Yokohama AVS rims on my 94 Turbo Z. They were the ones that stillen put on his special edition Z. The rears were 18" and the fronts were 17". The car looked great with this setup. I was thinking about buying a similar setup for my 350z. Maybe 19" on the back and 18" on the front. I currently have the Track wheels on my Touring but I think the car would look so much stronger with wider rear tires. What do you guys think? What size would I go with. I want the widest I can go without the car looking stupid with the rim/tire sticking out. Does anyone have the 19' on back and 18" on the front? Thanks for the info.

Has anyone ever had any Foose wheels. I am thinking of getting some and was wondering what the track record is for them. Bend easy? Worth the money? I am attaching a few pics of the two I am considering.

The other pic.

Quadry,

Are you looking to put some bling bling on your Escalade? If you put that second rim on a Z there are probably a couple of dozen 350Z lovers that will personally make the trek to the Razorback state to kick your butt! **

The first wheel is not that bad, but the second wheel belongs on an Escalade in Long Beach.

That being said, I'm not sure of the quality of these wheels as I am not familiar with them.
