Why just those two? What is your budget?

 

Its upto £1100 with tyres.
I just like both those rims, only issue is I cant seem to find any pics of Z'd with them on or if I do they are tiny images.

If there is a more popular option out there Id happily look at some other options as long as they are in budget.

 

Second set

 

First ones with a more aggressive offset to really bring the concave out, but I just did some quick searches and found out that the offsets are 40 for them all... Around here XXR and Rota get alot of hate, but don't count them out, I have a set of XXR 521's in my room right now waiting for tires and man they look awesome. AND I got them for $128 a rim! The 521's in fact look alot like the 1st rim fyi

What happened with these wheels?

mesh > 5 star

i was looking at less expensive wheels mesh style and you can get quite a few different brands, and some even have decent offsets, and decent lips , and don't look half bad

 

They didnt get very good feedback so I discounted them.

The 521's are nice the only issue is getting them to the UK with import tax and shipping, ite ends up costing a fortune!

I also like the gtr gun metal with chrome lip on that link but I feel they may look a bit tacky.....??

Main issue is not seeing any of them on a Z so its just guess work

 

prefer the 5 star just becuz of the concave look on the black skyline

 

Yeah its the concaved design that I like plus iv got the big brembos to show off!

 

keep your stock wheels and save up for something worth buying

 

No me gusta either!

 

I'm in Germany and may be selling a set of silver 19" LMGT4 with tires. I'll PM you when (or if) it's going to happen.

 

I approve this message

On a side note, how are you liking the akebonos?

 

Thanks dude! The Akebonos have been surprisingly great. I understand the negative feedback, but I've done a total of six laps on the Nurburgring and there was no change in braking feel. No fading, no ridiculous brake dust. However, I do have upgraded fluid (Motul), lines (Stopech), pads (Hawk) and rotors (Stoptech). Granted, you can't do consecutive laps, but the brakes are impressive. You can't beat the price, but I suggest getting zinc-coated rotors to prevent that ring of rust.

Back to you OP!

 

Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you.

 

will these fit my Z?
19" 8j et49 5x130pcd

 

No.

 

Nope, different bolt pattern. Besides, the wheel width and offsets are weak IMO.
