350Z wheel questions

[StaticX27]

So I've been looking around on google images for the past couple hours and I'm dying here.

I was out today and saw a set of black with polish lip wheels on a 350z, stock 18's, nissan center caps and everything. It's driving me crazy trying to find pictures of em. They looked very much like stock rims, so my question is were they? If so, what model came with em?

um james there jdm tyte fairlady kool yo!!lol

[mad-ass]

Nismo one's? were they 5 spoke?

[StaticX27]

I think they were 7 spoke or so. Definitely more than 5...

[mad-ass]

well, probably not. i don't recall seeing any of them on the road with the wheel description you have. probably after market with nissan centercap's

[StaticX27]

Its weird. They have the rays engineering on em, OEM tires (obviously can be bought normally, but damn, coincidence). Center caps are Nissan and the color matches perfectly. Its killing me trying to find pictures...

The wheels Bushido posted are quite pricey for OEM.

You're probably looking for the OEM 350Z Track wheels which were designed by Rays Engineering.

Found em :P. I didn't really recognize them at first, mostly because it was 3am at the time... But I'm pretty sure those are the ones. Did they come from the factory in black with polish lip? Or was that something aftermarket?

[CrimsonRockett]

Seems more like he took a rattle can to them.

They came from the factory like in the pic I posted ^^^.

The black with the polished lip doesn't look bad at all. Make a nice set of track wheels. Hmmm...

[StaticX27]

I'd repaint em (pc or anodize em) if it's just rattle can. But yet, They actually looked really nice seeing em in person. I was like "Yea... those are mine..."

All this just for bigger rotors and calipers :P

I think the newer Z rims style is better than the older ones...

Z rims only come in the regular silverish or chromed :barf: , no colors. He probably had his powdercoated black (or did it himself).

I didn't want to make a new thread, just want to ask if the 03 350z standard wheel clear z32 front/rear brake caliper?

also, will it clear most coilover and stock shock/strut?

Front: 17x7.5 +30 23 lbs
Rear: 17x8.0 +33 24 lbs

[emersonLP]

Yes and Yes. I have the wheels I think you mean (see sig pic) with coilovers and Z32 brakes. They clear fine - no spacer or anything (though a spacer would make it more flush)

[5t341tH]

doesnt 350z come with brembos as an option? that means it can clear brembos so it should clear z32's

[4bangers]

thanks guys for the quick help

emersonLP, now that I see your sig, yeah that's the wheel I'm talking about. What kind of coilover are you running? Thanks
