Finally Got Em, My New Fat 3 Piece 17" Wheels

[Tommo560]

1800 is cheap!! i looked at getting some wheels for my z before i did up the stockies, but i was stuck with getting 3 peice rims so the offset was right (did you have to do this?) and it was gonna cost a fair bit (atleast 550-600) per rim, nothing like my dads 2k a piece bbm mags for his supra, but damn expensive for z rims.

Yer these most of the places I went to wanted around the $550 mark per wheel but I shopped around and crunched the last place for price.

Those rims are gonna look sweet on your Z!

What type of driving are you gonna be doing on these rims? How did you figure the offsets? Using the 7" width/0 offset as a baseline for the 4-lug z wheel fitment, are you not going to get any tire rubbing issues in the front? Always liked the deep dish look but am little skittish about extreme (+3 and larger) wheel conversions and possible tracking/handling issues..

71ZZZZ,

I use my Z for weekend street use. I am in the process of building an L28 for the car so one day I woulod like to have a bit of fun on the track with some friends.

I based the offset on the 16" watanabes that so many people use with ZG flare set up, so I know they will clear the stock suspension.

I'm not too concerned about performance and handling as I have a friend with similar size wheels thats a track car and it handles quite well.

I will be doing the rear end disc conversion ASAP just to look the part.
