I don't like them.

[sr20kouki]

[diomedes]

Those z wheels look rather nice on the s14. Now I want them!

And you paid $400 for them?? Sell them to me!

Atleast its better to have Z wheels that sportmax and rota IMO + they are cheaper than sportmax and rota's. Im rolling on 350z rims and I like them a lot better than rims I have on my car before.

Nice kouki, now buy some side skirts. lol

[SlideWell]

crappy Intec tune? i know it wasnt Chris that tuned it...
nice to see a base model kouki. i was hoping for a more elaborate story though....
