I had a Z28 with a set of polished ROH ZS's http://www.groupawheels.com/Pr...07bfe (feel free to post the picture, i'm not Mac savvy enough for that ) and loved them. At 17x8.5, -7 offset or 17x9.5, +5 offset I think they would look nice on a S13 hatch. I searched around with no results for pictures or threads. Curious to see if anyone has had any experience with them on a S-chassis. Any pictures would be handy also

Hmmm... They've got potential. I'd say forget the 17x8.5's and just run the 17x9.5+5 all around. That is assuming that these come in a Nissan lug pattern, which I don't think they do. The link you posted states these are marketed towards BMW 5 series cars. Beemers and Chevy's don't run 5x114.3 like Nissan does. I'm also curious how much these wheels wiegh...

Oh wait! They have these wheels available in Z fitment!http://www.groupawheels.com/Ca...906e9But their Z fitment wheels are only available in 18x8 and 18x10. But it doesn't list any offsets . The 18x10's may be nice on an s14 or s13 rear depending on what the offsets are...

Lol! And look at their OEM knock off wheel!http://www.groupawheels.com/Pr...aabc8

To be honest, I don't see these wheels catching on in the S-Chassis scene. 3 inches of lip is considered bland to most of us.

3" in of lip with a decent offset bland? To each his own. Not really looking for "scene" wheels, just thought these would be a option to consider. Guessing a photoshop might be the closest i'm going to get to a picture huh?

*edit* found a image of a S15 with the Drift R's in 17's on 350z-tech http://www.au-z.org/gallery2/d...9.jpg not as sexy i would have thought?

**edit** Isn't this a Nissan? http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KpEN...1.jpg And those are 4-lug

Look thru here to get an idea of what most S-chassis guys think looks good:http://www.rimtuck.com/thumbna...l=S13&

Fitment is the key. It would look better if it weren't for all that unsightly wheelgap. Needs more and better fitting tires, for starters...

You know... you're right! There was something about those wheels that I didn't like, but I just couldn't put my finger on it until now! They're Foxbody-ish!

Lol... I just noticed this, but when you say 'Z', you mean Z28's. When we say 'Z', we mean the Fairlady production line (240Z thru 370Z). That's a possible point of confusion there...
