I've joined this conversation waaaayy to late

As luck would have it, having a bottle of CC Revolt was just the ticket as the RAYS needed to be super clean and put away till winter - making way for a new set of rims. Every car I've owned I've always changed the wheels to help put my own little stamp on it, we all like to tinker. Owned my 350z for almost 3yrs, it's bugged me not to do the same. The option 18' RAYS are such a great wheel and I struggled to choose a set i felt would look nice in my eyes. eBay favourite 5x114.3 - 18' & 19' used for what seemed like forever, was showing nothing to my liking. One of my all time favourite wheels are the R34 GTR magnesium forged alloys. But seemingly have missed the boat for these as they go for silly money now, due to how rare they are. When Andy stuck up a FS thread for his old wheels, I couldn't see a reason not to drive down and pick them up. His 350z is super clean and the wheels were as you'd expect coming off a show car. With only doing a few thousand miles a year, there no better car to buy wheels from. New hardware applied: Tarmacsportz Neo lug nuts, flush centre caps and 66.1 sprigot rings. RAYS cleaned and put away. New wheels to take their place. VarrsToen ES2 *hyper silver 19x9.5 et12 - 255/35 R19 19x10.5 et12 - 275/35 R19 Absolutely chuffed with them and the wait was well worth it. Although initially I didn't want to get this style wheel, as its pretty much the default JDM choice...... Arguably the most copied aftermarket wheel design of recent times and it's easy to see why. Obviously the RAYS TE37's are the daddies, with numerous companies copying *Rota, Bola, Wolface, Calibre, JapanRacing. Of the lot, VarrsToen for me made the best looking.

Yep and everyone with a sports car buys the very best tyres for extreme road use.

oof, did you watch till the end as Neil address the title....... Plus no semi serious track 350z ends up keeping the OE leather seats, so either you're wrong about the what the owner wants from them or every track prep Zed owner is wrong...... If there's one thing Neil doesn't do is click bait.

It'll get quieter once the internals are all coked up nicely.

LAST CALL!! Just 2 spots available, going to be a busy one

Or

Looks like the styling company from back in the day Carisma, got hold of a GTR and went long. I see they've dropped Bridgestone in favour of Michelin #rightmove

Congratulations on the new arrival, best times pal. Lovely car pics too

Any pictures of the 235 on the 9.5j?

Had a fantastic Z33 GT4, and now a lush Z34 Nismo

Croatia were solid!! Played very good, calm up front no sweat.

For me the Nismo has too much lower bodywork to pull off smaller wheels.

Looks just the ticket, low and static!! Bold choice to go a size lower for the alloys, but it works. Smart pictures also, keep em coming

To satisfy the stability control ecu I think there is. Quick rule from what I gather is 2 sizes wider on the rear, as seen with the OE set up ie 225 Fr with 245 Rr.

I'd stick with 265's up front as, 255's might be too much stretch.

I know, wrong wrong wrong. I'd have said £375000 was better - nice mind.

FYI same day as Japanese Performance Show

Morning Iain I'll be in the daily and heading straight there, as sadly a forum gathering has flopped this time

Top level service again from TarmacSportz, new lugs nuts arrived next working day before I had even got to work thank you kindly

Looks the part and il bet awesome in the right hands down the lanes.

Nissan has admitted that it has uncovered falsified data from car exhaust emissions tests at most of its Japanese factories. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-44763905
