Awesome! Reallly looking forward to seeing them!

Also, for you guys that already have the wheels in 19", how much did you pay all said and done (and also what was the price of wheels for you (with lugs, center caps))?

No rubbing at all.

Ride isn't bad at all and just a tad rougher than the stock 17's. Slightly more road noise, but barely noticeable. Just turn up the tunes!

How's the ride compared to stock?

Springs: Eibach Pro Kit





I think your rear tires are too low in Diameter.

From what I know, you should be around 26.7 inches in the rear but 285-30-19's are 25.9 inches. If you are going to do that make sure it balaces on all 4. Your front tires are in right specs but the rear one are little off.

Just a thought.

well all volk wheels for the 350Z are high pad to clear any large brake kit. so you don't have to worry about that.

sorry for long post

i'm confused on two fronts with this thread - correct me and/or point me in the right direction here

the mackin and japanese rays website fitment chart doesnt list what su3350z's offsets are (there is no +24 or +27 option). website is rayswheels dot jp dot com - i cant post websites but you can figure it out, there is a english vesion, follow to SF challenge and click on fitment chart
he says he has em so you gotta believe em but why not listed? and could you send your pictures to the thread for all to see vs just pm

second 350online store says their all high pad and will clear a big brake kit. again, the rays website goes out of their way to list two different offset lists, one to fit the big brake and one that presumably doesnt (check the foot note on the fitment chart)
sizes that we would use for big brake kit would be 19 x 8.5 +21 or +34 fronts and 19 x 9.5 +15/+28/ or +40

the guy with the black car earlier in the thread is Wicked4u2c. someone asked him in another thread what his offsets were and he hasnt replied yet. seems he has no problems fitting a big kit. thread is Body/Exterior/Interior/Lighting > Rainy COLD Day HOT DAMN CAR = 56K WARNING

overall in my searches the common size is 19 x 8.5 +21 front 19 x 9.5 +23 rear like vq35dett's, but if the rays site is correct (which you'd think it would be), apparently you'll have big brake fitment issues

set me straight, prove me wrong, so a confused guy can get this figured out

thanks all

Just trying to find out the exact specs you have for your wheels? Obviously you fit the big brake kit in from Rotora...What was your offsets, widths, etc, etc?

Does anyone have this combination with the factory Brembros? Did you have any rubbing issues with the brakes? Or if there are any dealers out there that know this for sure. I searched for the answer but didn't find a definite.

Thanks


19 x 8.5 +21
19 x 9.5 +23

Looking good though man!
