sweet, I'm actually looking into XXR 962s but I'm not sure it will clear a BBK. If they do then I may pull the trigger on the XXRs. If not then probably varrstoen

the 962's will NOT clear bbk because they only come in +35 offset... with spacers they will fit though...

question for anyone on these.. man, im REALLY wavering on cancelling and getting forgetars but its really a question of not having the extra thousand dollars right now..

I ordered 35 offsets for the fronts... the only other option was 15s.. i assumed that was far too low an offset for the front.. would you guys agree?

I assume ill have to run a 7mm or so shim to get it just right, but id rather add a spacer than have a wheel that rubs and hits...

then you will be fine as far as the brakes go but you may have to roll your fenders depending on the tires you run...

+15 actually would have been fine and still been able to fit a decent sized tire with no issues... im no expert, but from what ive seen and read +12 is perfectly flush or a little poked on stock fenders...

JZ33 I was thinking 245/40/18 front and 275/40/18 rear. I'm trying to picture how it would look.

pulled the plug..

i dont wana ruin the great work ive put into this car so far.. especially when I can go with forgestar f14s and come in UNDER the OEM wheel weights while running a 20x12 wheel... and if they fit and the price is right, Ill just buy the 22" wheels of Hans IMR fortune G35.. iForgeds..3 piece... sick wheels. It will be cool to have a part of that car live n on my ride for sure.. either way.. i yanked the 526 order like 5 minutes ago.. sucks, and its nto NLMs fault.. but im just waiting forever for a subpar wheel .. cant do it mang.

I feel better already. whew.

Default i hear ya..

the fitment would have looked cool, but the lip itself is just too fat for me.... its not a thin lip, its more like a donut... makes the wheel look smaller...

BUT the ZGods re smiling upon me...and i stepped the game WAY up and bought a 6k retail set of wheels, like i thought i never would...
I actually bought a little piece of local history.. Intense Motorsports had a set of IForged 3 piece wheels made one-off for their 1000hp Veilside Fortune G35..

i am apparently suddenly thrust in the hellflush fitment crowd... as the fitment will be as aggressive as it gets for a Z. Im sure we will have to do some cutting on the front fender now as well..

I bought the Fortune G35 wheels from Han yesterday.

ready for this?
forged 3 piece..

22x9 0 offset 245/30/22
22x11 -18 offset 295/30/22

crazy.Not to thread jack and take it off subject.. im just super pumped man... these wheels are crazy.

Those are sick, although make sure you take great care of them. The two sets of iForged rims I had for my BMW both had major issues. (protective coating peeling, 2 rims bent, studs falling out). I learned to check on them pretty regularly to make sure there was no damage.

But I was also DD'ing that car.

Good to know. Will do.
Btw the hellaflush crowd still doesn't approve.. it seems unless your "aggressive fitment" doesn't look exactly like everyone else's...its still lame to them...ha ha. Those guys crack me up .

Pretty sure this is about as aggressive a fitment as possible

Has anyone gotten a shipping confirmation on these yet? I ordered through Next Level and my order says that they have either shipped or are in final stage of processing. Does it say the same thing to you guys?

im pretty sure mine said that after three days after placing my order..2 months ago..

just call XXR/Ensure wheels directly.. the lady who answers has a shipping list and can tell you exactly whats in the country already AND if its not.. if it has even hit the water to ship to the US yet.
