work wheels? (poll)

[dasoupdude]

My friend is willing to trade his work cr-kai wheels for my base 17'' wheels, plus some money.

Tire dimensions as far as I know are 255/35/18

I did a test fit, what do you think?

(nvm the 4x4 gap)

[Chattzx]

holly balls what are you waiting for GET THEM! next on your agenda would be a slight yet tasteful lowering

[NSRsheets]

Looks good. I would trade him.

[kuhan]

staggered or non-staggered?

What are the offsets and sizes?

Need to take those into account as well.

Plus 255/35/18 for rear is weak sauce.

The wheels look nice, but need more info on the wheels.

18x9.5 all-around? Then it's non-staggered.

The offset for front looks decent, but +30 is weak for the rear.

PLUS the currently tire sizes WON'T work with your Z. You need to replace those.

275/40/18 R

The rear tire are about 1.5" smaller than oem stock, that's why it makes your Z looks like a 4x4

Soup, your wisdom is great but you're a fool for not jumping all over that before he even finished proposing the idea to you. Just my two cents.

[Retired Chief]

No one has even asked how much? He wants your wheels and some money? How much?

Oh, good to know..see i fail at wheel tech, probably explains why i never bothered to get wheels in the first place.

Seems logical captain. I like that

$1400, the wheels and tires have about 1000 miles on them on account of his 300zx always breaks down

______________protip: im not looking to get hallah flush.

[Watermelonwarrior]

If you got the cash then I say go for it. I like the wheels and it looks slick on your black Z

Yeah, they look much better in person, much more meatier in rear than the 235s

Just needs lowering springs, maybe coilovers. _________________________What happened to the ///M3?

I absolutely love those wheels!

Great price. I'll take those in a heartbeat.

[RemixZ]

There rear wheels tire tread is backwards.

[Retired Chief]

He wants your wheels and tires plus $1400? I say talk him down on the cash or no deal. You can get those wheels brand new for about $430 a piece at the most. Shop around and you can probably find them for less. Do the math. At $1400 you're getting a used set of rims and tires and giving away your rims and tires for about $300.

[kuhan]

oops. didn't see that he wants $1400 + your wheels.

Then it's not a good deal. Those tires are basically useless, so you need to sell them. New tires will run you around $700-1000.

I'd pay $1K for the wheels/tires.

Beat me to it.

I did some web shopping and math last night but didn't post (I was on my phone) what Chief just did. You're getting a used wheel that someone else isn't happy with, with suspect offset, at not much of a discount.

It's also cast aluminium, not forged - at the price he's asking that would be a deal breaker for me. But that's just me...I'm super-selective. I'm looking for a forged wheel with decent offset in my OEM size (so I can use them in stock class in AutoX).

[tollboothwilley]

sorry, too much money for what they are...plus the tires are worthless.

You need a larger sidewall tire to fit correctly on your car. 275/40/18 & 245/45/18 would be the tires you need. (you could go a little smaller on aspect or tire width if you choose for either)

[Z-owned]

Sal should just keep them on the z32

[dasoupdude]

Yeah bout that, he actually didn't want my wheels. Apparently it was just a temporary thought, price is still $1400.

That size sounds about right, and i agree the sidewalls aren't meaty enough.

He's getting rid of the wheels in order to get stitches (wheels). Both tires and wheels have less about 500 miles on them.

You know sal?

[Z-owned]

Only through his postings on 3zc

[BusyBadger]

Both tires and wheels have less about 500 miles on them.

Sure about that?

Wheels and tires both have about 3,000 miles on them.

Straight from the post over in Classifieds.

I'll never estimate in this town again
