Snake,

Those wide spoke chrome rims are from ADR. But they are also quite heavy. You can do much better for your Z.

If you want a relatively inexpensive set of wheels (such as the ADRs) that is not too heavy, try looking at Buddy Club (18x8 and under 20 pounds). About $630 on eBay.

If you still want cheap, but want a wider wheel that is still not too heavy, I got a set of four ADR Kasai wheels in 18x9 for only $530 (my track day wheels). They weight about 24 pounds (still 2 pounds less than my stock 18" wheels).

My "good" wheels are my SSR Competitions (18x8.5 f, and 18x9.5 r), and these weigh less than 18 pounds each. Depends on how wide you want them. But a new set will cost over $2000.

I think the 5Zigen FN01R-C's are a decent deal and are still light, and they come in several choices of widths and offsets.

For a more "machine" look, somethink like the ASA ST4s from Tire Rack or the TSW Bremma's (essentially the same wheel) from Discount Tire look pretty cool, are not too costly and are not too heavy.

The Kazera KZ-A's also look hot (similar to the Nismo wheels), are less than 24 pounds each and a set of four, staggered (18x8.5 and 18.9.5), is only $800 from Tire Rack.

Do your research - it will pay off.

Good luck!

Motegi = suck
ADR = suck

Don't bastardize your Z...save up and get some proper rims

I think FN01R-C is a good recommendation, if you want a set of cheaper but good performance wheels.

I also agree with the recommendation on the Team 5Zigen FN01Rc's: Strong, Lightweight and VERY GOOD PRICE.
