I am having a delima, I want TT wheels 2 sets of rears to keep the stock look, but increase width of tire. BUT I also love the Nismo wheels for the 350Z, I would love to get them powder coated black and have the Nismo decal in red and white on it. But I am not sure if they will even fit on a 300ZX(Z32), thats the problem. I have yet to be able to find any info on offset for both sets of wheels or a decent price for the Nismo wheels. I found a supplier here in Charlotte that can get me TT wheels used that are still good for 130 each. I am tempted, but I want the Nismo wheels as a option.

Wes do you think you could photo shop a set of those Nismo wheels on a good profile shot of a Z32?

delerious, i dont think those are the exact wheels he is talking about...

i have already looked into the nismo wheels for my car...unless you can find someone who upgraded there wheels from the nismo's to a different wheel (which is rare), then look to spend over $2000 for the wheels without tires...

they will fit, i am pretty sure, they may not clear the front caliper but they make spacers for that for like $30 or so...

trust me, i have tried looking for these wheels for my car and i came up with no one willing to sell there nismo's nor a company that sells them for less than ~$500 a piece...

here is a great company that carries them along with many other high end performance wheels...

Yea those are the wheels.... those or the bronze ones... color dont matter I am going to powder coat them black, and get white Nismo decals to put on there instead of the black ones. I will have to call around to a few shops here in town that I know that carry used and "extra" wheels....... dont ask, I dont.

Do this... get yourself a pair of R34 Skyline GT-R wheels. They look tits on a Z32. Trust me...

Want proof? I took this at the last Motorsport Auto Z National car show

Courtesy Nissan has the Bronze ones listed under 500 each. I can deal with that, not to big of a rush on it, just wanted to know if they would fit. Now that I know I can start planning them in the future. I am still working on my engine stuff first. First thing to go on is my underdrive pulley, and belts. Next will be intake and probbly new rear tires....... camber issue I need to take care of, but have been too busy at work to throw it up on the alignment rack to fix. After the tires.... maybe on a shopping hold till I get settled in at a new job in Florida! I hope I get it.

If I do get it, I will get AMZ Headers, and Highflow cats, with a Borla Catback exhaust system. ((Sorry I love Borla had it on 2 of my last cars and they ARE the best)) After that its going to get complicated and messy. 3 angle valve job, port and polishing, extrude honed intake plenum, upgraded injectors, JWT Mild Cams and ANOTHER ECU to meet the new demands of the engine. I figure I can push this NA to 300HP with those few things done there. And it should all cost me around 7500-10k.

i like the borla but as soon as i can come up with an extra grand im getting the B&B 4.5" dual tip exhaust i have always wanted...:naughty:

also, hodo...you might want to go to http://www.my350z.com and see if any of those guys are selling there nismo's because they upgraded to a bigger wheel...i dont know why they would but it happens.

I tried to put my stuck 350z wheels on my z31, but didn't fit.

350z wheels will fit the z32. because when I got the ADR wheels, they told me that they are for z32 and 350z, so i think that 350z nismo wheels will fit the z32.
