Jeebus, really? Have you SEARCHED at all?

Start here: https://www.google.com/search?q=5+sp...w=1619&bih=821

See something you like, drill down from there.

Try this example on google: " Enkei Kojin on 350Z SITE:my350z.com "

FIRST hit.

I see a trend here...

someone starts a thread rather than doing some research...followed by the flame throwers...followed by an OP defensive and offensive post...followed by members with their "take it easy" posts...followed by members giving in and doing the OP's homework for him...followed by never hearing from the OP again

Well, I hardly consider myself a flame thrower. I tried to help (with the google syntax and link to an entire interwebs photo gallery) while at the same time "hinting" to people that this forum as been around for as long as the Z33 has and EVERY conceivable topic, idea, advice has been on this site - multiple times - so no one needs to be spoon fed.

I don't mind giving advice - as you know - but when people can't lift a finger and don't at least make an EFFORT, well.....

If that constitutes flaming and unbecoming of a moderator, then hey, I have NO issues NOT being one.

Yup they fit, just gotta get the correct size, and offset, and tires, and the little hub rings.... Maybe some lug nuts, and some locks so they dont disappear when you run into Costco to purchase some fruit snacks in bulk.

"I don't mind giving advice - as you know" Yes I do, multiple times and I thank you.

Thing is, I wasn't actually referring to your post but more how these lazy threads go. I can clearly see you were of help. I don't think anyone's questioning your Micmoderating.

regardless, some threads require a flame thrower, moderator or not

+ possibly some longer studs if you want or need wheel spacers, in which case you might need hub assemblies if you damage the bearing with the off and on

Funny you should mention hub assemblies... Some dude wanted to purchase my hub assemblies from the parts car... I was like ummmm I don't really want to pull them off right now but I have an extra set with brand new bearings I'll sell you for $80... Apparently my asking price sounded crazy because I didnt get any response...

Pretty sure he probably wanted them for like $20

Dang, 80 bucks is cheap. In fact all the stuff you're selling is very reasonable, I think

Mike, didn't take it that way at all. I just get miffed at the laziness that is 2017. And I don't mean just here. Entitlement and laziness is everywhere. I just felt that someone had to say it so I used your "flame thrower" comment as a segue....

And I don't mean to pick on the OP either.... some days it takes far less to irk me with this type of "Ask and gawd dammit, I want to RECEIVE!"

Now, get off my lawn.

Guess we can start by moving this over to the wheel and tire section. I wouldn't doubt it if you searched this section , Enkei information would come up

Maybe even an entire thread completely devoted exclusively for Enkei... That would be nice and convenient.

I dunno, guys, it's not like Enkeis are popular enough to be seached for, let alone have an ENTIRE thread on them.

Dude, there's a million different wheel styles out there. Why in the hell would you ask us to choose one for you?? Do your research and have fun with it. Narrow it down to a couple that you like, and then ask us... Not tryin' to be a dick. I'm just sayin'.

Get on the stanced dance train.




But in all seriousness, I recommend checking out the OEM Touring V2s or V3s (offered on 2005 35th anniversary and 2006 - 2008 350Zs). No worries about offset, fitment, clearance, etc. They look good and can usually be had used at a very reasonable price, many times including rubber and TPMS sensors. If you want something more exotic the choices are nearly endless.
