I never got any center caps with my 5.5.2's, cheap plastic ones if you could even call them center caps. What're they extra?

$20 extra for plastic caps and stickers. Seems rather petty, but what business isn't going to nickle and dime you. Oh well... It was a good lesson.

b2autodesign hooked it up with the 19" LM replicas w/ BBS center caps for even cheaper than Varrstoen. So if you're in the market for LM replicas, shop around. You may get a better deal for the same knock offs.

depends on how low you go i guess. and you should be fine without getting a camber kit. but i'm not wheel/tire pro either. but to my knowledge, 9.5/10.5 +22 on stock suspension would be fine.

[QUOTE=vtchang;9532370]Merry Christmas

2007 350z Grand Touring Roadster
5.5.2 wrapped in RE-11

I have since taken the snow plow off for a cleaner look.

BTW... 5.5.2 don't need spacers to fit Brembo.

Varrstoen was kind enough to inform me that I needed spacers so now I have extra spacers that I don't need. Also... it wouldn't kill you to throw in the cheap plastic center caps and stickers for free. Just saying. We all know these rims don't cost $1k to make. Thanks. end rant.


Any more pictures? Just ordered some, would love to see some different angles.

Thanks.

Im just lowered on BC Coils. Running a 35 sidewall on +12. Had to roll the fenders at my height cause i was rubbing the name off the tire.

As of right now im not on any camber kits. All depends if you want to run more - / + camber. I just order SPC rear camber arms to have some more negative.

I dont ever buy brand new tires just cause of the fact im running negative camber. i get FREE used ones down here from local places.

Ask and you shall receive. I don't have many pix. I didn't mount them until the end of August and been very busy since.

Maybe next spring.

Just for a point of reference, no spacers were used and the car is on crapacular KW v3 on max recommended height setting. Im done dumping the car, it makes handling go to complete s h i t.

I'm assuming 20x9.5 and 20x11? I would like to know offsets as well. I would be interested in these even though I'm not a big fan of 20's I think these would look good.

I'm not a 20" fan for the Z.
A bit too much wheel for the size of the car.
However,I like the design of the wheel(I'm a mesh design supporter).
I'm glad you are doing a gunmetal.I think this shade is going to grow in popularity.
My rims(ACE Stadas 19")are a similar design but much more inexpensive.
Wish I could afford a set of VARRS.But for everyday driving and looks,I like
my Stradas.They give me the look I want.

Your own original wheel would be a good start.

R&D is much more cost effective and it keeps the originators honest.
