Default Opinions on FR500 wheels

I recently found out that 350z's and Mustangs have the same bolt pattern. I decided to see how the FR500 wheels from my old mustang would look on the Z. I was actually surprised and pleased with how they look. The Anthracite color compliments the silver pretty well. Opinions are welcome. Im sure ill get some heat about putting domestic wheels on an import, but its only till I can save up for a new set.

Not bad with the serious stagger. I have mustang stocks on my car for drag radials, on the back only though.

Too much tire in my opinion. Go a little lower and get less sidewall. Maybe shoulda gone a bigger wheel size? idk i mean it's not awful but could be made a lot better.

Yea the wheels and tires were meant for my '98 mustang. If i actually decide to keep these wheels for good, i may just buy 18" for the front. Right now they're 17x9.5 in the front and 18x10.5 in the rear. But in all honesty its just something to keep on the car till I can find a set of rims i truly want.
