HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Gotta love those Stratos!

Hi and welcome, aboard! Looking forward to seeing Badbreed evolve further...

These guys are local - give them a call. http://www.diamond-wheels.net/

OEM standards are 8" all round IIRC.

lol gonna be a messy night When we all going to Liverpool? Oh. . .we're not invited. . . yep you are When we goin cos I think I'm washing my hair that night no perms Calm down! Calm down!

Why 9'' all round? You get the concave look all round with that width. A lot of guys in the US run it. Not quite true. You could get two pairs of rear wheels (concaved ones) and still have them staggered. They wouldnt quite be the same dish, so if you were to get two rears, I guess you'd get them the same width to keep the dish the same front and rear. Its the fact that they are the rear wheels that gives the dish. Front wheels are flat. You can run either fronts all round or rears all round if you want. TBH I think I would always go with a stagger. Having front and rear the same width has to have an adverse effect on handling versus the OEM setup. Eh? AFAIK the Rotas come in different widths and offsets but not "front" and "rear". Its the combination of width and offset which gives the concavity. The same width rim front and rear shouldn't have an adverse effect on handling but same size tyres front and rear might. Probably me getting misinformation off my350z then. They bang on about P45F and P45R which are the US GTRs. Not saying you're wrong mate (probably me) just that I'd never heard of it. Phil will no doubt set me straight in due course. Still can't see a problem with same width rims though - OEM are same width aren't they?

I don't understand either but its your motor and your money, so its all good.

Nooooooooooo!!!

Always thought Kev's looked great with a Veilside V1 in carbon but part painted. He wasn't keen on the fit though. http://www.350z-uk.com/gallery/displayi ... =57&pos=36 The Varis is my favourite and apparently a great fit but they're getting soooooo common now.

...shall I tell you how bad it is?! Just sold my Azure 07 GT with 16k miles, nismo clutch and flywheel (2 days old), Nismo exhaust and Nismo HFCs (2 months old), spacer and exhaust intake plenum (2 months old) for £20775. Only one caller on petrolheads (the guy who bought it!). Let me tell you this also - nismo clutch is one of the best mods you can make to this car, we all know the OEM clutch is a piece of crap, but this is in another league - it really lets you put the power down! Im so impressed im going to buy a MY07 and do the same mod! Why did you sell after doing all that, mate?

Fitting on top?

Looks spot on, Wayne. How much?

A bit old school I know, but you could even phone him!

The f@cking Starlet driver isn't normally a fan of 350Z's. Let me guess - he prefers Starlets!

I really think you're going to have to do more on that price if you want to shift this. It was only £495 more almost 4 months ago when you had 4000 less miles on it and it was wearing those tasty BBS alloys. And it didn't sell. The market's only got worse since then. Also your K1 will be an acquired taste. I'll take it off your hands for £250 though.

As if by magic a shopkeeper appeared....

Nice post, mate!

Now that's commitment!

There's an article in this months Top Gear about someone in the US who has all the old parts and is building some new ones and upgrading old ones so they go and handle - the old ones didn't. Apparently, you can even get it fitted with a supercharger!
