The new rims pictures were taken with my phone and are just quick shots. The others I just threw in there so you can see the great difference in looks.



First some randoms.

Looks alot better in person my cell phone cant pick up much detail in the rims. But it is a good upgrade in my exterior I think. I was trying to keep it clean and stock and I think I acheived that nicely.

Looks alright! Gunmetal them :D

Also, have you ever seen this home lime green 300 with matching aluminum wing running around columbus? I was down there today and he tried to run us in the benz, 5sec of laughter then we couldn't see him behind us anymore.

They look decent. I've never been a fan of the stock 350Z wheels. You could sell em and grab something with some lip, that's what that car needs. Lips and lots of open space inside the wheel.

Looks better

Anniversary Track and 6spoke 18's are great as well, but not sure how they'd look on a z32

HMMM ive never seen a lime green 300 around here. I know there is a civic with skyline tails that looks rediculously retarted running around . It fits the description you gave.

Saw a guy that had some 20 on his 350 and went up and asked if he still had the originals and he said ya for $400. Went to look at them offered $300 and I had a deal. Pretty good for new tires on the back and 85% on front, and some mint wheels.

I honestly liked the other rims better.

To each his own I guess. They had there fair share of knicks and were starting to fade on different parts of the rim from losing there polish. These are atleast cleaner and look brand new.


Thanks for the criticism though. :goodjob:

I understand if they were in better shape, but I like the older style better. So I don't completely disagree with the change.:D

looking good, and you did get a sweet deal on it

a set of 8.5" TT rear wheels will fill the fenders much better IMO, just a thought.

Ya I would love those wheels I just need to stop buying audio equipment and save some money up. I want to drop it a little though and ge a big brake ugrade before I do anything else with it. The most i might do is a polish job and some sort of black/chrome combination.

300zx's have huge brakes. Why do a brake upgrade...just get rotors and pads and new lines...OR get the big brake upgrade and sell me your 300 stuff so i can go 5-lug! :)

Oh and also because im getting ready for a vg30dett swap. My NA has 170,000 miles on it and the way I drive I see it ****ting on me in the next year-year and a half so im slowly but surely upgrading suspension, brakes, wheels and tires, and other misc. stuff. Then hopefully about 3K for the swap and some more for a paintjob so while the motor is out I can paint the car/engine bay. Big dreams I know but, I have it planned out over a long period of time. Before I sell this car though it is getting turbo'ed. Unless I sell it for something ALOT faster.
