Default GT-R Replica wheels

So I who's seen the new gtr replica wheels?
I kinda like them. I'm not really into the brand name wheels like volks and such theyre very nice yes but i wont spend that much on wheels imo! I respect the build being 8000$ wheels or XXR's lol



But what y'all think they're 18"


I might get them



Wanna hear your guys thoughts

I thought they looked interesting... asked seller on ebay more questions about them, he said they weigh about 28-30lbs...Pretty heavy for an 18" wheel. I do think they would look good on a Z...you should pop on them so we can see what it looks like

I'm not into brand name wheels either. Volks arent good anyways. I'd rather have shitty no name ones that weigh 30lbs that will crack if you hit any imperfection in the road the wrong way. Generic cast wheels are where its at!

Lol I feel like it's baller wheels or stockies. I love my powdercoated stockies and I prefer them over $800 wheels. Just my opinion.

I just got a set installed last week, here's some pictures. I went with 18X8.5 front and 18X9.5 rear with the 275/40/18 rear, 225/45/18 front (stock front size). I'll probably get the center caps professionally painted to match.
