  1. Say it how i see it mate. Many thanks Once again.
  2. Bought the Rims of Aidan Monday evening,the guy had them shipped Tuesday and they arrived shortly after Noon today Wednesday,what a fantastic service and great product for the money and I'm well pleased with the sale in general and the time and helpful information aidan gave me as i asked a awful lot of questions ? Great guy,great communications skills and extremely helpful in selling this item . Wouldn't hesitate to buy other goods of this person if i needed to in the future.
  3. I enquired about these and asked the guy i few question regarding width size which he said he didn't know,also asked him if they came with the appropriate bolts,again he failed to answer,so based on that communication its best i leave this one alone as i don't want to be making a 250 mile round trip and buying some Rays that are not exactly the size i require for my tyres.
  4. Hey Salesy they certainly look pretty decent,anyway i have contacted the seller as I'm away for a few days but they really have my interest,i like the look and the price. Thanks for the heads up mate .
  5. I don't mind it sunken inside the arch if I'm honest,much appreciate your time and effort Grundy in giving me some advice as I haven't got a clue what the hell I'm doing . By the way what do Rays stand for .
  6. excuse my ignorance guys but what exactly are these Rays i keep hearing about,i know absolutly nothing about cars i just drive them,all i want is to basically get back to basics ,get another set of alloys that don't really require spacers that won't make my tyres look stretched. I have been told the rim sizes but Ive been looking on here but don't see any 8.5 on the rear,i have seen 1 set of alloys which fit my tyre size but didn't like the look of them,budget is around £500,and all this offset is confusing me even more. There last thing i want is to get a set of alloys/Rays whatever and then find i need spacers or they don't look much better than whats on the car. I do appreciate all the advice and help though but I'm not a 350z expert and have little to no interest in the mechanics of cars and i have to say that guys with total honesty .
  7. Well I just be informed by Alloywheels.com that finding after market alloys of 8 on the front and 8.5 on the back is basically impossible according to these guys. He is telling me that 9 on the rear is fine and the tyres won't look stretched . Think I will just swap the car ......Lol
  8. Now I'm confused with the previous poster telling me I need spacers for 8 and 8.5 rims,I actually thought these were the standard sizes judging by what you guys said. Would prefer to buy alloys that fitted the hubs without spacers if I'm honest
  9. Lexx,sorry for the confusion,I'm not really interested in the mechanics of what a car is all about,just like driving decent cars,so in that respect I'm completely I did notice that the car had really wide tyres on which were in extremely bad condition,so I cam on here asking for the correct front and rear tyre sizes completely not thinking that those size tyres were on those rims for a reason. So my stupidly,besides these Jade/R alloys are a little scuffed so it's a much easier option to buy the correct sized alloys.
  10. Yes you are correct I don't like the Jade/R alloy wheels and yes in my ignorance I bought what was the correct sized tyres for the car which don't exactly sit nice on these rims . That is not the only problem ,the spacer is corroded and if I replace 1 I would much prefer to replace the 4 , so given the cost is £200 for the 4 spacers and They want to know the spacer measurements it's an ideal opportunity to get myself a set of new alloys instead
  11. Thanks guys for the speedy response ,and the first guy that asked the question? I want new alloys to fit those tyres I have . Many thanks guys.
  12. Right guys I'm in the market for some new alloys for my 350z,when I bought it about 15 months ago it had some custom Jade/R alloys on it with 245 on the front and 275 /45r18 on the rear. Because the tyres in my opinion were absolute pants and budget tyres i decided to by some Mitchelin super sports but the correct tyre sizes 225/45R18 front and 245/45/R18 rear. Now when they proceeded to put the new tyres on the rims the tyre fitter looked a little bemused and called his gaffer,the tyres looked completely stretched due to the size of thes alloys which I'm guessing where around 9.5 . Now I have a spacer problem on the rear which has rusted and corroded,these come in sets of 2,if I buy 1 set I'm going to want to buy them all round which is around £200. Now I have seen sets of alloys for £500 so what I need to know is what are the correct size alloys for the tyres I have which once purchased and tyres put on them won't look stretched. Is it 8 on the front and 9 on the rear ,I'm sticking with R18. Thanks in advance.
