going on the silver 280ZX turbo. the ZX has deep fenders.

8 inch wide has room in front. Rear wheels have room to spare even with 9 inch. I may even run thin adaptors on the rear in the future to push those wheels out to the edge.

 

Going with slightly staggered tires even though the wheels are the same width.

225/45-16

245/45-16

 

I had to custom order these. Ordered them back in September. :D Just got them on Tuesday. I'm going to try to scrape together some money for tires now. My new house purchase has me spent.

yes this is why I'm selling the factory wheels.

 

I found them at 18racing.com I called in my order so I could get the exact size, offset, bolt pattern, and color I wanted. Special order. Color is hyper black with polished lip

 

They do not have anything wider than 8in in a 16" diameter. they do have 17x8.5, 17x9, and 17x9.5 in zero or negative offset.

 

Also, +4 is the lowest offset they offer. I asked. No neg or zero in 16x8 :D

^^ x2. Can't wait to see them mounted, Bleach!!

 

I was going to get the same ones for my S130, but I came across that deal on the Volks that I couldn't pass up!

 

I think these will look better on a ZX than my Volks do. :fu:

 

[Edit: Are those Royal Hyper Black, or Gunmetal Gray??]

 

[Edit edit: Nevermind, I see RLHB on the sticker. :rolleyes:]

they do look good i just hope they are not like the other style rotas that have been cracking...

 

bleach didn't respond, so i will

i've done a bit of research on rota's cracking, and let's just say it doesn't amount to much more than the same pics and third-party stories
