Yeah they seem to be selling the touring wheels on craigslist (they go for more). Try a 350z forum. I don’t know how much those G35 wheels cost, but I imagine they too will be more. The only wheels that sell cheap are those pictured on the white car.

I had a line on a set for $350 in long island w. tires. My friend picked up a set with tires for his Cressida for $300 even. It’ll take some time to find a set.

worse offset? in the front yes 18x7.5 +38 us kinda shitty but in the back the 18x9.5 +35 would actually sit out a godd 14mm. so his rear offset would be much better on an 18x8 wheel and a hell of a lot better than the 17x7 wheel

weight wise the 18x9.5 is a beefy 32lbs and the 18x7.5 is 23 lbas

now the 17" oem 350z wheels weigh 23.26lbs front and 24.14lbs pounds rear each ~500 used no tires  
the 18" touring v1 weigh 26.56 lbseach ~$800 used no tires  
the 18" track v1 weigh 18lbs each ~$1500 used no tires  
18" touring v2 weigh 24.8lbs front and 25.8lbs rear ~$600-700 used no tires  
18" track v2 weigh 21.25lbs front and 29.50lbs rear ~$2000 used no tires

G35 coupe wheels oem 18x8 weigh 24lbs ~800 set used no tires  
the optional rays weigh 21lbs a piece cost $2500 used no tires

Hmm after i do the math and look at cost i think those 962 are lighter than all the other wheels in the price i gave him oh and they have tires on them. Oh and the rear offset is better.

But yeh get 350Z fail oem wheels

:lmao Wheels aren’t really that big of a deal and I don’t care that much about weight. I would like something at least 8.5 - 9" in the back and they can’t be black. That is all.

That’s right, you tell him. You tell him what you think HE should put on HIS car. Sell your wheels to someone else.

They are gunmetal, Jon.

Anyway, like I said I’m not really into the 962’s, but I’ll find something I like, whether it be OEM wheels or Rota’s/Elites… or :ninja Works :ninja

MB battles are stupid cheap right now in 17" versions.

They are pretty light and come in good sizes and offsets

They only have a low offset because the hub/lug nuts are sucken in like 3-4 inches. Same with MB Battles. I’ll either go with the super flush look of the OEM g35/350z wheels or something with a nice lip.

huh?

How much the center of the wheel is sunken in or ‘concaved’ is dependent on the offset, not the other way around, NT03’s with et40+ are pretty much flat, the et35 and under is where it’s at :nod

I think it would look sick on your car, but it’s been done before…alot, I can dig your other wheel choices for the most part :nod
