I have a 06 magnetic black Z, and I have been looking at rims for 6 month now and I'm having a hard time deciding. I keep going back to the SF Challenge, recently I found them in diamond black. I think thats the one I'm going to get. I'd like to here your opinions? I voted for the SF Winning in your poll.

Best choice on a black Zed, no contest!

Oh, and voted for the LE37's above (but the correct offsets make a huge difference to the look of these). I also thought they had been discontinued.

sorry, i'm going with none of the above. My fav's (esp. on a SB 350z) are the 19" G35 wheels:

I'm just trying to find a set in great condition now. Super light weight (somewhere around 18-19 lbs) versus stock touring wheels (26 lbs), and you'll be able to find replacement wheels forever, not like many aftermarket wheels. They're $900 each plus tires from a dealer, but a pristine set on ebay or other forums usually runs around $1000, or $1500 with tires.

Aren't the offsets a bit dodgy for a Zed, though? The ones I've seen seem to sit to far into the arches. I suppose you could use spacers....

They fit like the factory Z33 wheels do - they do sit into the arches a bit (8 inch wide with 30mm offset in the front). I'm just wary of buying a set of wheels and having difficulty finding a replacement in a few years. It seems like every set of wheels I like is discontinued within a year or two. OEM wheels will be much easier to find. I was actually thinking about using spacers, but we'll see how they turn out.

When I go up to 19" I'm looking to fill the arches more but I take your point. Look forward to seeing some pics.

I'd hope that he's decided on wheels by now since this thread was started in 04... thread closed.
