350z track ed. wheels made by RAYS. 18x8.5 i do believe with a 30/35ish offset? probably have to run spacers but damn if they aren't light.

definitely not your average oem wheel

I say rims too.

One time someone asked me what kinda wheels i had and

i said " yokohama AVS es100's"he was like "noooo, the WHEELS"and i was like "yoko's bro". Haha he proceeded to say "that's the tire i am talking about the wheels"

I think it was one of those, you had to be there moments.

If they are just Track rear wheels all round, they are +33 offset and you don't need spacers. Track front wheels are 18x8+30 and still don't need spacers. Unless you're going for flushness...

F: 18x8.0 +30 R: 18x8.5 +33

Forged made by Rays Engineering.

Nice wheels ... maybe the offset is higher than some like, but they're good strong light weight wheels.

Why did they bother even making them staggered if it's only by 1/2 inch?

Btw, that s13 ^ looks great.

For anyone interested I found this info on them:

These wheels came only on the Track models from 2003 through 2005 model years.

Cost Expect to pay around $1000 or more for a used set in good condition.

2003-2005 Super-light Forged Aluminum Alloy Front Size: 18x8.0 Offset: +30mm Weight: 18.19lbs Tire: 225/45/18

Rear Size: 18x8.5 Offset: +33mm Weight: 18.62lbs Tire: 245/45/18
