My New Wheels
Got them mounted yesterday after the initial problems I had with the wrong lug nuts and the stupid spacers on the front rotors!
I really like the mesh design on a roadie, it looks real classy!
HP Racing Evo's
18 x 8’s on the front with the stock 225/45/18 Bridgestone tires
18 x 9’s on the back with the stock 245/45/18 Bridgestone tires
When the OEM tires wear out I will replace with 245/40/18’s and 275/40/18’s.
I think that I made a pretty good choice based on the bling factor vs. price. Less than $800 dollars for the wheels, lugs, stems, key, shipping, mounting, balancing and I can keep my OEM tires for hopefully 20K more miles

Very sharp--especially for the price!
Any idea how much they weigh?

wow first time i've seen these on a Z... look nice!
but just an FYI... the 245/45/18 on the back is a little out of spec so for safety, you might not want to track/autox the car

I have kept the stock 18" tires and the offset was pretty similar to the stock only differance is that the rear wheels are now 1" wider. The 245/45/18 will support up to a 9.5" wheel based on the info I found.

That is amazing that they could have screwed that up like that! How can you mount and balance four tires on wheels and not notice that they were differant color wheels!

Well they came in on Friday but sent 2 of them the wrong color. The shop said they would have them on this Wednesday. I will post pics as soon as they are on the car

I did not order them with tires on them already. The place I bought them from here locally just ordered the wheels and they put the tires on and mount them. He said that there might be a chance they come in today. I hope so. But for sure tomorrow.

I have them on my roadster too. They are a nice wheel for the money and really look mean, especially in the hyper silver which I have 19 inch of course, LOL. I am actually going to sell them this week to make room for some new shoes. They onlt have 6000 miles on them. I am torn if I will go with a mesh style again or 5 spoke, HELP. I have them on Hankook Ventus tires. Nice tire alternative to the Toyo's we see everywhere.
