Default Enkei PF01's wheels?

...i wanted to get opinions on these wheels... Enkei PF01's. Are they dependable?...No issues?

I have a stock 2007 Z right now and I am planning on getting these wheels but I need to know if they will fit ok with the specs that I am getting from TireRack.com. I plan on keeping them 18's and NOT lowering my car in any way and NOT rolling the fender also. Here is what is showing on TireRack.com:

FRONT:
18 x 8.5
Offset: 30mm
Backspacing: 5.90"
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
Rec. Tire Size:225/45-18

BACK:
18 x 9
Offset: 35mm
Backspacing: 6.33"
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
Rec. Tire Size:245/45-18

** I don't need the wheels to be hella flush, but are those offsets all right...or will the wheels look totally sunken in?... Any info would be great. Thanks!

pretty much same as stock just extended 1/4" on each side of the wheel because they are about the same offset as stock. so not to much more aggressive than what you have now. not sure how aggressive you wanted but if you wanted more aggressive this probably wont be enough. you should not have any issues with rubbing so you wouldn't need to roll your fenders. you could probably go another 25mm offset before it rubbed with that size wheel and tire. just a guess though

I wanted a wheel that weighed less than 20 pounds. Budget was $900/4. Took me 3 years to find the right wheel.

For weight and price this has always been a popular wheel. Value is tough to beat.

Enkei or used Nismo LMGT4's are a great option if you want a lightweight wheel that's a good value.

Rather than aimlessly making threads I suggest you attend some meets to see different wheels for yourself and decide from there.

NOICE!!... those are WIDE...looks great. Yah, Waizzz...i think going to meets is a good call....there's nothing like seeing the wheels mounted on the rides in person....thanks for all the suggestions.

If you are going 8.5, might as well buy the set of 18x8.5x4 stockers that I mentioned to you.

Otherwise go 18x9 or 18x9.5 all around, even 18x10.
