Can I ask you a forum function question.... Did you by chance ask this question using the "What is your question?" popup box that shows up for people not yet signed in or members of the site?

Or had you signed up BEFORE you saw that popup box?

This is very important feedback for the moderator/admin staff. Thanks!

EDIT: Oh, and, what's your budget for tires/wheels?

That's it. The beginning and the end. You either buy volks or you're just a poser.

Hmmmm, guess three sets of Nismo wheels, two sets of Enkeis make me a poser. Better put my Volks back on.



Oww, she hurts.

Nismos are made by rays so you're all good.

Seriously though, to the op, everyone has their own tastes. Google is your friend. I personally think Nissan got it right on oem wheels in the later years of the 350z.

I would agree but also think they got it right with the Track V.1s. Other than the smallish size for larger tires, they're awesomely light and strong. Interestingly, the Tracks on my Shiro when it got destroyed bent a wee bit and tore hell out of the finish but no visible cracks - and one of them took the full brunt of the blow bouncing into and off the curb.



Any wonder why I chose to keep these when I sold this car?


I have this thing y'see.... ALWAYS keep at least one set of Track V.1s and a set of Nismos in the garage. Heh heh....

Forgot about the track v1's. I agree about the sizes though. If they would have made those and the anniversary/touring v2's in 18x9f and 18x10r, I'd never change my wheels. I'll eventually get around to refinishing the track v2's I bought last fall. Still not sure if I'm gonna keep them silver or go darker, similar to the nismo wheels. I won't go as dark as my current wheels.

OP won't say.... already asked.

So without that KEY INFO, suggest he just go on Fleabay and look for 9.5/10.5 +22s and stop asking for a spoonful. Waste of time.

No prob with minding a budget.... just tired of people looking for handouts without one hint of a self help effort. Really tired of spoon feeding.

And if you took the time to read my and many others' posts that discuss these very same things you've asked for, you'd know that I am ALWAYS willing to help those that have questions about things that they're not clear on AFTER reading up.

If you spent 10 minutes in the wheel and tire section and clicked on a few things in there, you'd also have answers to all of your questions. Like I said, I have no issues WHATSOEVER helping clear up mysteries for people even if I have to do it over and over and over, which I do (as do many others here) so long as they're not standing in front of me with a blank look waiting for a spoon full of info without lifting a finger.

It takes a LOT to get me to this point but when I see a person ask ask ask without even helping by giving everyone more info to narrow it down; that is, what you want to spend - to give you a more precise answer - then its not worth anyone's time to give a firehose answer with tons of wheels when, say as an example, only want to spend $600 on a set of wheels.

I will suggest that if you do not wish to play by how ALL forums work, then don't play at all.
