Anyone tried these rims on a G50

Has anyone tried these rims on G50?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...QrdZ1

I think they might look nice on my Pearl White Q

[mxr662]

I have 17 x 7.5 on the front and 17 x 8 on the back of my 1990 q. I got a great deal on the rims, but if I had it to do over again 8 inch wide rims would probably be better to achieve the proper load ratings of the tires. Or maybe 8.5s

I have a set with snow tires on them for the winter. Mine were painted brown by previous owner. The offset is too low from a looks standpoint, and the narrower wheel works for my purposes - snow tires.

I paid about $450 (IIRC) for my 350Z wheels and I love them and the offset works great for the Q. I found my wheels locally so I didn't have to pay freight.

The person I am talking to will take 350 for the rims, and conti touring 215/55/17 tires

Yes, 17x8 would be better, but 17x7.5 works fine too. You can use a 245/45-17 tire and there are a lot of tire options available in that size.

will those rims fit with that bolt pattern?

The are off a 02' Q45 so I assume so

How about thesehttp://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/258792

Seems like a real good deal. You'd just need 2 new tires.

Thanks Rex, but it looks like they sold

I asked to see what shipping was

I really dont want to spend too much.

300 + 150 shipping + 220 tires + mounting = 700ish

Thats why I liked these with tires for 350, just not sure how they would look with the 215/55/17 tires, I guess if they where good enought for the f50

FedEx Ground will be your best bet, but you're right it will be close to $150.

This is a much better deal for someone out East. I would pick them up, but have more wheels/tires than I need, except some nice 4 luggers for the M30 convert.

I presonally think the 215/55 (should be 225/55 for the F50) would be WAY TOO small/narrow from a looks/performance standpoint. Didn't do the math, but the speedo probably wouldn't be too far off.

[silver2k2]

My bad they are 225/55/17. Should still be an upgrade from by 15" BBS with goodyear regattas 650 treadwear. 215/65/15.

Here's the brown ones on a stock height 94 Q45

Kinda maxima-esque, what size tires are those?

The 225/55/17 ALL season craptastic ones that came on the wheels. I've since switched to true winter/snow and it makes a huge difference during the winter season.
