  1. Your car sits so nicely on those 18s mate!
  2. Just a quick question, ive been looking at the Grid Drifts but love the concave of the Rota GTR wheels, would I be able to fit 19x10'' ET20 All round? Just not a big fan of having the more concaved wheels at the rear only
  3. Thanks for all the input guys, been away for a few days! Heavily considering the 19s now, and liking the though of Grid Drifts, love that concave!
  4. Wow sorry guys I didn't check my post! Great to see there's a few of us around this area, ide be up for a meet sometime
  5. I think he means arch gap as in top of tyre to to arch, which offset or 18, 19 will not help with, only lowering. Jonty, rolling diameter stays the same with 18's, 19's or 20's, or should do, to be in line with your current rolling diameter (overall size inc tyre). Basically your tyre profile gets smaller to allow for the extra wheel diameter, so whatever your gain in wheel size, you loose in tyre size. Use this to help you keep near the same: http://www.tyresave....k/tyresize.html Thank you Jet, that is exactly what I meant! Great advice thanks. I like the look of a 35 profile tyre however im sure I well expect a loss in ride comfort
  6. Thanks dude sorry to drag you over to this post as well. Trying to get the other removed
  7. Thanks for the input guys! do you have to run a certain tyre profile like 35's? is 45 to big? I do like the track look of 18s but im not planning to lower my car which is why im turning to 19s to fill the arch's a little better
  8. Your right mate, il have a think! Was hoping to get some wheels on a finance initially, its a lot to spend outright
  9. Just checked them out on the for sale section Bodyboarder, really nice wheels! Unfortunately budget possibly wont stretch to £1600
  10. Thanks Jet! Please disregard this post as ive moved it to the 350z section, thanks for your help though guys
  11. Hey guys, Had my Z for a couple of months now so starting to seriously think more about changing the alloys. For ages ive been deciding over Rota Torques, Grid Drifts and MXR's. However I saw this pic recently and it started to get me thinking about the possiblity of 19's. So im just wanting to know, is there any problems with fitting them straight on? (Rubbing, arch rolling, suspension, certain tyre profiles, etc etc...) I dont plan to lower my car as I already scrape the odd speed bump / curb at stock height! Thanks guys Ps. does anybody have any experience of running the Linear Corse wheels below?
  12. Ive only just realised Ive accidentally posted this is the 370z section Thanks for your reply Scott, Ide like a nice deep concave on the wheels I eventually choose

  14. Thanks guys. Really good colour Chippy, really caught my eye!
  15. Saw this car with the other Z's at yesterdays show. Fantastic dark red (cherry?) custom paint job. Really nice colour fella
  16. Hey Joel, sorry I havent checked this post in a while as I thought it was sinking I think I passed you a few weeks ago driving through Brinsley, do you have black / dark alloys?
  17. UPDATE: Spotted possibly the same Blue 370z Roadster earlier this week also parked at Eastwood Hall - Y10 ***
  18. Great choice! I have been toying with getting Torques since I got my Z, nice wheels!
  19. Could be the top mounts. Had a similar problem with my gf's car when it was turning at very low speed (maneuvering)
  20. Never once in the years ive been able to go out with the lads in to town has one of us EVER touched or damaged a car. What motivates these F***ing morons!
  21. Haha your right on that mate! Ive opted out of it, gona see how long the re sprayed front lasts
  22. Ive had my Z a month mate and every time I wash it the chips and dings bothered the hell out of me. Mines currently at the body shop as we speak getting the front end re sprayed for £550
  23. Thanks for the advice mate, definitely wont be getting it wrapped!
  24. So ive always looked for Z's ever since I was looking to buy mine about 3 months ago but here are a few ive spotted recently around the Nottinghamshire area: 370z, Red, 11 plate - Next to the main road through Brinsley. I drive past this one at least 4/5 times a week, clean car! 370z, Roadster, Blue (Azure?), Private Reg - Spotted this morning on the A52 going towards Long Eaton, in a rush for work? 350z, Red, Private Reg R* *** - Parked in Eastwood Hall car park last Friday. Couldnt believe my eyes! Im there 4 times a week and have never seen one there 350z, Black, Unsure of year, maybe 04/05? - We both exited the M1 at J28, we even acknowledged eachothers cars a few weeks a go now in the dark If your the owner or have spotted me also feel free to comment UPDATE: Ginger Z spotted going up Nottingham Road in to Selston last night. Also spotted the same car going through Moregreen weeks a go
