Wheels for a Z(32) help me out. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

fyneyoungstunna · 07-19-2011, 11:00 AM

Trying to decide on wheels for my Z. I want to stay away from the typical stuff
i.e. rpfo1's, advans,350z wheels,works, yada yada.
Anyways, I had a thought: The z 32 is a good blend between luxury and sport, great body lines and all around just a sexy car if done right. Most of the wheels out there have been done on a Z and done well. I want to try some of the Luxury wheels and see what the results are. If any of you can photo shop for me that would be great! I dont want 20's. 19's are about as high as id go.
Here are some of the wheels i was thinking of.

or maybe even something in this style:

opinions?

I like this overall look (of course its a lambo so....)

This is kinda the overall look im talking about. Not like in a DUB magazine, but tastefully done

HyperTek · 07-19-2011, 11:18 AM

Orden in 18x10 low offset.. no stagger. Do it!

ILoveMyRHS13 · 07-19-2011, 11:18 AM

This would be pretty rad.

raz0rbladez909 · 07-19-2011, 11:35 AM

Looks ugly IMHO but here you go, or try typing in ugly z32 wheels in google it brings up lots of ugly shit

and the only reason those high dollar cars even have those ugly ass wheels on there is because the owners have more money then taste.

fyneyoungstunna · 07-19-2011, 11:38 AM

forgot I had this chop done. Looks ok to me but i need better angles.....

fyneyoungstunna · 07-19-2011, 11:39 AM

holy hell Raz0r, those made me cry a little bit.
The first one isnt too bad.....for the time frame. Looks like it was done in the 80' which i can appreaciate that they didnt have a lot to work with back then. If its modern then I retract my previous statement. looks like someone wanted an rx7 instead. Tail lights gotta go though.

Exactamundo.

On the cheaper side: 18x10+18 Enkei RP03's in SBC finish

On the expensive side: 18X10 Gram Lights 57 Pro with Titanium finish

I dislike VIP wheels on sports cars. It's contradictory to the car's purpose.

HyperTek · 07-19-2011, 12:46 PM

here is some varrstoens in 19

Weds SA-55M

BustedS13 · 07-19-2011, 01:08 PM

NismoTuner21 · 07-19-2011, 01:26 PM

That was the point honestly, it's a sports car man I see no reason to put some of those gaudy ass wheels on your car just to be different. There's a reason the white z32 with the CE28's and the LMGT4's looks so damn good

fyneyoungstunna · 07-19-2011, 01:57 PM

Those Cor's are nice. might be too much chrome for me but i can powder coat them to gunmetal.
on the Varstoens: Nismokids car is famous! so I dont want to copy. ALthough, I will have a set of the 3.3 or whatever their designation is for the ce28n reps that they have are!

IM in a love hate with those ssr's I'm still not sure about them, but that's an awesome pic for reference and I will save it to hard drive

I dont like staggered rims on a Z, simply because it has an effect on handling.
keep em coming!

the Cor in black

fyneyoungstunna · 07-19-2011, 02:48 PM

Vrooom you are my hero!
those are nice.

@Busted: from a general all around standpoint staggered rims on a Z make it a bit temperamental, hence the reason most of the Z guys go to a full set of TT wheels from the stock ones. In the rain It becomes a Major issue.

your car grows on me a lil bit more every time I scroll past it....

True. I know Gram Lights 57 pro's are expensive as shit... but I wonder why you don't see more RP03's around? They're good looking & relatively cheap for a legit wheel...

agreed. I've always wondered the same thing. any time i see those wheels i instantly think of Suenaga's D1 Fd from hella years ago.

im pretty shocked at the amount of ugly in this thread.

fyneyoungstunna · 07-19-2011, 06:08 PM

As i stated, Im not looking for sporty wheels. On Z's they have been overdone, Im headed in a different direction. I can respect high quality wheel, I can respect all the ones posted like the RP03's, but thats not the type of wheel I'M looking for.

fyneyoungstunna · 07-19-2011, 06:10 PM

@deolio: I've been a memeber way longer than that.
