Default Looking to get new wheels

I am looking to get new aftermarket wheels. I dont have 2k to spend on some wheels, thats why im looking to get the ASA AR1 in black or silver for my Silvertone 350z.

I was wondering if anyone on here has the ASA AR1 wheels on their Z's and post pics with them. I would appreciate it.

I was also wondering if some 18'' or 19'' look better on my z. I currently have 17'' and want to go bigger.

Thanks in advance!

Here are the links-

I don't think Tirerack offers the AR1 in our bolt pattern. The AR1 has less than desirable sizes available for the Z anyhow:
8.00 x 18 5x114.3 72.5 ET35 AR1
9.00 x 18 5x114.3 72.5 ET35 AR1
9.00 x 18 5x114.3 72.5 ET40 AR1
8.00 x 18 5x114.3 72.5 ET45 AR1
8.00 x 18 5x114.3 73 ET35 AR1
8.00 x 18 5x114.3 73 ET40 AR1
9.00 x 18 5x114.3 73 ET45 AR1

8.50 x 19 5x114.3 72.5 ET25 AR1
9.50 x 19 5x114.3 72.5 ET25 AR1
8.50 x 19 5x114.3 72.5 ET40 AR1
9.50 x 19 5x114.3 72.5 ET45 AR1
8.50 x 19 5x114.3 73 ET35 AR1
9.50 x 19 5x114.3 73 ET35 AR1
8.50 x 19 5x114.3 73 ET40 AR1
8.50 x 19 5x114.3 73 ET40 AR1
8.50 x 19 5x114.3 73 ET40 AR1
9.50 x 19 5x114.3 74.1 ET20 AR1


Try looking through the Marketplace if you're on a budget.

Why would you buy something for your z that is garbage I don't get it. Save until you can buy wheels with proper offsets and is made way better

Sizing doesn't really look ideal for the Z unfortunately.

Default Wheel Suggestions for $1,000 budget?

Im looking to buy some new wheels and dont have 2k to spend and dont want to ever spend that much just on wheels. I want to get some nice black rims that would fit the 04 350z but since im new i need some help.
Im looking to spend less than 1000 on some wheels or less. Does anyone have any suggestions or links would be great to some nice rims. Im looking for black. i really wanted to get the ASA AR1 but i got told they would not fit for the Z.

Thanks for your time!

size wheels?18's,19's?
For 1k for a set of wheels you will be limited to cheapo wheels like Drag etc.
Also,offsets will be a problem as they will prolly only come in one size.
You'll need spacers.
Save your money or check for a buy on the marketplace.

With that budget your looking at XXR, Rota, Varrstoen, etc.. for about 1200 you can get some RPF1s.

$1,000 is a terrible budget if that includes tires

Your really only option is something like these:

https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-...b-battles.html

or you will have to continue to save your money until you can get at least $1,500-$2,000 unless you can try to get something used but it will be pretty scarce

These are also good options if you're seeking a value but not with $1,000....

The budget amount is honest, but too low when buying a decent tire/wheel setup.

XXR in 18s with proper specs are about 500-600.

if the 1k is just for the wheels go with either the rpf1's and extend the budget a little or go cheaper and get some tsw's the interlaggos i have in 18x10.5 are lighter then stock 17's and are a quality wheel you would save even more weight going with 18x9 or 18x8. rpf1's are a little bit lighter but about 30% more and volks are quite a bit lighter but way more expensive not work the extra cost imo

You guys are funny. 1k is not too crazy for wheels these days considering you can get Z's for 7k. However, if he thinks 1k is enough for wheels AND tires then I surely need to offer him some ocean font property in Arizona.
