Bleach Posted December 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Yes, I got them for free to put some snow tires on that I already owned. Its not a complete set. 3 slots (1 of which is so messed up I'm going to recycle it). So after next week it will be 2 slots and 2 "other" wheels. :D Black carpet sun fades to green. Under the seats and the center console it is still black. Quote Link to comment

Bleach Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 They are 16x8 on all four. tires are 225/45-16 in front, and rear has 245/45-16 The back springs are too high. I actually drove it to work and back and took the picture when I got back. The car runs great! Its been on the road for a month now. I'm going to put the Aritaspeed nose on it and a ZXR spoiler. No MSA bodykits. New carpet, upgrade the alarm, sound system junk, and some day 350Z seats. oh yes, lower it of course. Big freakin sway barz... ricer steering wheel, the works! :D Quote Link to comment

Edz280zx Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Looks good Bleach...the offset looks to be perfect!! Quote Link to comment
Gollum Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 I'm suprised you went with 16x8. Did you see the pics of the 17x9 rotas on my ZX? They fit beautifully, and the 9.5 wide would have fit perfect if the offset hadn't been designed for the S30. From what I've seen, if you got the right offset, you could easily go 9 wide in front, and 10 in back. If someone did the footwork to build custom rear control arms to give more clearence you could easily fit 10.5 if not 11 wide back there! The fronts are a bit trickier though. Going beyond 9 isn't going to happen without more flare or serious suspension work. Quote Link to comment
Gollum Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 I was asked to show a picture of my ZX with the rims, but I'd much rather post another Z actually on the road before showing my POS. So I'll start off with another hybridz member with 17x9's all around And my car (space was cramped so angles kinda suck) As you can see here in this pic, the 9.5" in the rear sticks out a tad, but I verified it wouldn't rub the lip. But check out the inward clearence! I could fit three fingers in there, and my entire fist between the tire and the shock! Seriously, the rear end on these cars look like they were DESIGNED for a 10" wide rim if you ask me. Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'm suprised you went with 16x8. Did you see the pics of the 17x9 rotas on my ZX? two words... HEA - VEE I did see the 17x9.5 and did a lot of research and thinking. I know the ZX can hold wide wheels. I had 16x10s before. My 18x8 were so heavy and slow I wanted a different feel this time. Smaller rotating mass and softer sidewalls. If only they made 16x9 Quote Link to comment
Duke Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Should have gone with 13x10's...that would be sweet. Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Looks great Kevin! I like the size, you can fit big brakes and still make the car nice and low (even though I'm sure you won't dump it as far as I would :D) 13x10's would look kick ass but you'd have to downgrade to 510 brakes :eek: Quote Link to comment

I'm planning on running some 13's in the future with my zx struts. I agree on dropping it though. It's got the muscle car rake going on right now. Lowered with the zx g-nose should look really nice. Can't wait to see the progress. Quote Link to comment
