Default Bout to pull the trigger on these bad boys..

Im about to pick up a set of 20" 10.5 / 20" 9 Vossen CV1's withe the matte black machined finish..

Doesn't seem to be anything about them here on the forums..

Here is the closest thing I could find to the color and make of my 350z with these rims.. these particular rims are custom finished though.. I'll be gettin the factory matte black finish.

http://www.vossenwheels.com/gallery/...VSCV1-327.aspx

I'm also thinkin about the BC coilovers.. anyone have any experiences with these.. seem to be pretty inexpensive but I've heard they are good quality..

Many thanks peeps..

Pretty cool lookin wheels. I was checkin out their website yesterday. I like the mesh style wheels, CV2's I think.

Can't tell you about BC coilovers cuz I'm still 4x4 status on painted stockers. lol.

Tein is always a good way to go and a lightly used set can be found in the marketplace. A lot of these guys run them.

Don't think you'll have any luck with that search..lol

These wheels are a little more towards the luxury style and I don't think anybody runs them.

I guess the G37 pics will give you some idea of the offset/fitment/look you'll get bolting them up to a Z.

this is my buddy's G37 vert on vossen CV1





as you can see they look perfect on a G but i'm not sure about a Z. great rims nonetheless. BC coils are a good choice too. comfortable for street and good adjustability.

Same here! great coils for the price. They can be really stiff or they can be soft.

Yea.. I think im gonna go for it. I've been looking at hundreds of wheels and I like these the best and gonna just jump in. You would suggest 19's? what is the reason for that? not questioning ya, just curious as to why since ima nub.

I was gonna get 20's.. I was actually gonna try to put the real wheel up front too so I get that concave look... My wheel guy said it will limit the brakes options up front when I go to upgrade the brakes but he thinks that he can make it work.. I like this idea a lot... will really make it custom and different

Don't bother with 20's but I do like those wheels

There is a set of them on a 370z Nismo, search for it through google

I dig those CV1's. I've been looking at them myself but I didn't think that they came in 19's as 20's are a bit big but if they look good on yours I may pull the trigger. I'm really getting to like the concave look and these certainly have it.

The Z is a sports car, 20's would be more of the luxury look on a 350z. Most of us roll with 19's. Get 20's if that really what your heart desires, but youll probably need a badass stance or bodykit to pull the look off nicely

the concave is cool, but they just look cheap and like there are too many spokes.
