I’m going for performance, not looks. And I like having a taller sidewall that reduces risk of curbage. Let’s see, better acceleration, less risk of damage, and cheaper. 19s FTL.

17s would be even better, but honestly on a street driven Z 17s look TOO small. 17s would be great if I wanted a set of track only rims, though.

EVERYthing in 18 is lighter than stock. The stock rims weigh approx 26 lbs (not confirmed, but I’ve seen multiple reports on this). Work Emotions are nice, but I want the lightest, nicest rims possible. Right now, it’s the Nismo LMGT4, the Volk TE37, or the BBS RG-R. I think I’m going to buy the Nismo, but the price on the RG-Rs right now are incredible, and those are beautiful, proven rims.
