Wheel Identification Help - Petrol Octanes
So I picked up my Z in February and I just love it. But you guys know that already. The thing is I'm the second owner of the car (duh) and I don't know what the guy before me did to it in ways of parts. From what I can tell its been dropped an inch and has these 19" wheels on it. All fine by me but I know nothing about this company or these wheels.
From some googling I found they are petrol Octanes? I'm not new to the car world but I must admit I can't seem to get any real infor about these guys. Weight, quality ect. Which has lead me to you fine folks any info would be just lovely. Thanks!

I had that feeling but I wasn't sure I'll be in the market for wheels come tax time. The curb rash due to the orginal owner isn't very appealing either. I'm thinking about Rota p45rs maybe in bronze

More than an inch? Hmm I was pretty sure but I really don't know. Is there a way to tell by measuring ground clearance? Also atleast I'll like the looks of the Rotas who knows maybe the tax man will be nice and Ill get volks

I would agree, look better than the OEM's just keep them for the time being OP

Instead of Rotas might I suggest you get the legit NISMO LMGT-4's that the Rotas are a replica of
I would get under the car and take a look at the suspension, definitely looks like it's more than an inch. More like 1.5"
