Default Another TE37 install...

They are looking schweet, I already got my first road encounter - guy in a Ford Lightning pulled up and asked about my car, mentioned he's never seen wheels like that. Thanks to ZZtopp for a great deal!

19x9.5x22 with 275/35 - Rear

There can never be too many TE37's in my opinion.. Looks great... flat silver are the best.

Now -- like dvlad said... your next mod -- BIG brakes !

Why do some of the TE37s have writing on them and others don't? I think the wheels look better with the blue writing on them, especially on a blue Z. Just my $.02.

why does evreryone think he needs bigger brakes?? If you look and read the tests the stock brakes do just as well for daily driving and even for teh first few laps on the track, after that is where the Brembos shine. I guess if you track your car a lot it is a nice feature, but for someone who doesn't, the cost doesn't justify it (to me).

Don't get me wrong they would be NICE to have, but for 95% of the people out there the stocks are good enough. If you look at the stock #s compared to BMWs, Porsches, and MBs, I think youd be surprised at how well they do. They are nothing to be embarassed about and Nissan did a good job in that department. Believe me when I say that I have been in cars with brake fade, and this car doesn't have it for what many of us to.

Like I said Brembos would be nice to have, but the car is hardly inferior or an embarassment without them. Just like it is still a great car without leather, or without HID lights, etc....

They look alot better peeking out behind the bigger wheel. Plus the performance aspect you mentioned on the track.

They're the Top Secret TE37's. 19x9.5 front and 19x10.5 rear. All have a +22 offset. I think u can buy them from Volk without the Top Secret logo on the rim (not sure). Personally I would buy with the logo.
