They look good to me. Very rarely does a car get viewed from the side only. Normally it's at an angle so I think these pictures display them well... not that I would mind more pictures though.

How much do they wiegh and what's the story? Was it just a test fit or are they yours?

those wheels are sooooooooooooo nice. as is every aspect of your car (I say this everytime you post pics i know). In this world where black hatches are royalty, yours is king.

When is that true? When most people notice a car, they stop and take a walk to the side of the car to get a feel for it. Noone ever looks at the front to scope out a nice car.

Forgot the most important picture8" +30 with 225 width tire fits just right.

I've always liked g35 and 350z rims. But my only problem is the good ones are 18's and I feel they usually look too large on 240's personally. But they look nice and clean, and I hope you enjoy them.

Damb bro. Those are so sick on your car... Get some more pics.

Nope, I said angle rather than front. First impressions tend to come from the front and approximate 45's. This is especially true in parking lots where looking from a 90 degree angle can often just net a view of the windows. A pure 90, to me, doesn't give enough depth to really make an accurate judgment. Particularly when from a picture taken low enough to cut the hood, roof, and trunk out of the picture.

What are the specs for the rears?

Post by **chmercer** » Tue May 24, 2005 10:04 pm

looks like they have a nice fitment for somone not looking to have to work at it, even if the wheel style is not my favorite. thumbs up

Post by **Exar-Kun** » Wed May 25, 2005 2:35 am

Thats nice Smith, very nice.Speaking of wheels..I need to get some for my Z33...

I was thinking of the Work VSXX..dunno yet

But that looks very nice.-Chet

My thoughts exactly. The wheel style looks off. Maybe just too big and too bright looks odd on a black car, or maybe the odd little square styling on the spokes.

Chet when I got them I was thinking why not offer them for sale on NICO? We'll see if I like them. They are quite light and ultra-round.. virtually .001 lateral runout

I want dibs on them....

Keep me from blowing 1800 on some Works or something :p-Chet

Post by **Chingon** » Wed May 25, 2005 2:37 pm

very nice... For some reason I thought z33's had horrible offset for our cars... I guess I was wrong.

Post by **chmercer** » Wed May 25, 2005 3:18 pm

thoes are the track ones or somthing, right? the ones that come with the brembo package?

Post by **Exar-Kun** » Wed May 25, 2005 3:30 pm

That is correct. the 18" forged six spokes came on the track model Z's...made by Rays, they're light and strong..-Chet

If the fender doesn't need to be rolled and pulled, it's not good, lol. J/k, looks good.

If I squint really hard, I can pretend my s13 is as pimp as Smitty's...
