Ok So I have a 05 350z in Daytona Blue. I want to go with TSW CROFT machined look.

[IMG][/IMG]

FRONT: 17x8 (20 mm offset) in front (I get to keep my new current tires use them up)

REAR: 18x9.5 (20mm offset)------- really nice concave look... fills up the gaps.

I think these would look preatty clean, but If someone can Photoshop these I would greatly appreciate it. These rims are similar to CLS on the new M3 i think.

I have seen +1 apps on some cars and it doesnt look weird, but I welcome your opinions.

There are limited pics on google with concave setup on a BMW and it looks great.[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

Saw this once before at a car meet, IMHO it does not look appealing at all.

I want Estoril on my 300, but they don't have 22's available anymore. Anyway, not sure if those would look good on Daytona blue. Although, I could be wrong, i really have to see it.

lush if you put 22's on your Z it will look like a MatchBox or HotWheels Car. No please dont ruin that car like that.

Not to mention the huge negative impact 22 inches of unsprung weight/rotating mass will have on performance.

Seems like the idea is dead.

My plan B is Sportmax 962 in Gold and Silver lip. Similar Setup.That should look better, No?

By the way thanx for all comments.

TSW's weigh too much IMHO. For the money spent on those, you could get some Weds Sport, Motegi Trac Lites, or spend a few extra dollars and get some Gram Lites.
