    you should lower the car, and get some work equips.

    they cost around $2-3k used though..

    A lot of folks will suggest Volks or Works, and of course they are expensive. True, they are generally made better than "generic" wheels, so they will withstand a good deal of abuse on the road, but for daily driving, I would recommend something cheaper and decent in case of any mishaps. Easy to replace. Just my 2psi...

    yea I will probably get some cheaper alternatives.. I'm hoping to find some ray forged wheels from a g35 on craigslist.. unfortunately I can't spend too much on wheels at the moment..
    my next "mod" will be a trip to buttonwillow in Jan., maybe I should invest in some racing pads...

    great choice of car, I would go with Works, cheaper wheels save ya cash yes..but are not worth near as much if you intend on selling them later. the equality also on Works is top notch, "ya get what ya pay for" Best of luck with the ride... keep us updated!

    for now, might just powder coat the wheels and get the calipers painted yellow...
    something like this.. now I just need to see it with my new seats thrown in.. I need my camera back!

    The powdercoated stockers look great - cheap, easy and simple.

    hey guys sorry to re open an old thread, wanted to share with you the updates on the Z. I purchased some 18" MSR wheels. I know these aren't top notch wheels but I got an incredible deal for all 4 new with new tires so I went for it. Plus I personally liked the way they looked .. again sorry for the crappy phone pictures. I will be hitting up Buttonwillow in April next mod will def be better pads
