Hello 350Zers Today I have been doing a little more routing about and have come up with: 18x9.5 ET20 Front - £210 each 18x10 ET15 Rear - £220 each Grid Drifts Let me know what you think!

2 sets of these have now gone out to members on here Nobody fancy the bronze or black with red lip at the moment?

You have a PM matey

Hello 350Z-UK We have just received these, and thought they may appeal: The keen eyed amounst you may spot these are not quite the right stud pattern... being 5x120, however once we have the container unloaded the 5x114s will be in view! Colour currently is only hyper silver with polished lip - as per the pictures. Once again, these are ideal fitment to fill the arches nicely. The fronts are ET15 and rear ET20. I'd be interested to know your feedback. If anybody would be interested in pricing them up let me know! I would really like to get some pictures of them on a 350Z, so there is a deal to be done with somebody who fancies getting their hands on a set and is creative with a camera! Thanks again Ben

10 week lead time on them for now... We can get a set we already have in refinished in gunmetal for you without any worries.

We have Bronze and Black with rep lip still here in stock ready to go. 2 lucky people have bought and paid for their silver with polished lip versions, and they will be getting them this week. We have 2 pairs of 19x9s if somebody fancies them... due to a slight shipping error. It'll be 4 weeks before we get more silver with polished lips. We have white ones coming in 2 weeks.

10s on the front would probably fit, but there really is no benefit to be had from it. You can get plenty of tyre on the 9s, and they fit well, and look good. The reason for really wide fronts on the 18s was to get the concave spokes, but the 19s have this solved by all being concave. You would just be spending more money for no benefit, and possibly disadvantage of a little more weight more tricky fitment and possible but not certain arch issues. I would strongly suggest sticking with the staggered fitments.

I have added you With regards original wheels... you might be shocked in the near future people

as it happens we have recently upgraded the warranty on the polished lips, as they are improving all the time! Details are on our website. http://www.rarerims.co.uk/rarerimsblog_ind.asp?id=22 With regards the concave look, that's the real beauty of these 19s... They're concave front and back with the staggered fitment sizes, so they really match well. With the 18s the smaller widths looked quite different to the larger ones, but with the 19s they are both concave spoked.

The first of these should be going out on Monday! Hopefully we will get some pictures of them and see what Kev thinks.

For this Group buy, I'll put a set of lockers included in the cost, as a little extra incentive We can do anthracite spokes and polished lip. We will possibly get some in from Rota in anthracite with polished lip if the demand is there, but for the time being we will just refinish stock wheels.

Sorted nixy... you are removed until you change your mind

There is a HUGE range of colours available. For example there are 10 difference bronze options. We have over 10,000 wheels in stock at present, and that's just carrying the popular colours and fitments. To have every colour and fitment and size and offset available would mean carrying over 400000 wheels to have one of each... What we do is get the popular fitments and sizes and offsets, often ones we have ordered as specials, which as the largest Rota dealer in the world, we can do! What we do offer if refinishing of any wheels we have in a colour of your choice, with a variety of finishes. Depending on what you would like, this can be very economical and give you a unique set of wheels!

Thanks for that Matt We will include a complete set of new wheel nuts with these in a nice black colour Centre caps will be wheel coloured with the Rota logo. Hyper silver is not quite the same... the wheels you posted are hyper silver with polished lip. If you look at the spoke sides you will see they're quite black, the silver we have is silver all the way round as below: The picture I posted was silver with polished lip, and looks very similar. The ones we have chosen to stock are a more even and uniform finish, and generally more popular as a result.

Hello Doc Has your story made on to here as well? I have updated post 1 with the names of the people who appear to be interested. That leaves just 2 more spaces for this to go ahead! It looks like we have a good supply of pictures as well now, but any questions please do ask and I'll come straight back to you. Cheers Ben

I get the impression this may have been a bit busy for the mods overnight... Sorry chaps! I'll start a list on the first post now of those who have expressed a serious interest, feel free to correct me if I get it wrong.

They are new in the respect that they are 19", and designed with the 350Z in mind so that the fitment is ideal

There will be no scrubbage or clearance problems at standard height according to our testing. 15-20mm lowering shouldn't pose any major problems, but I will be glad to hear from the experts with experience with 350Zs

I have some tyre prices. They are as follows: 452s: 245/35/19 = £123.88 Inc VAT & Fitting 275/35/19 = £135.14 Inc VAT & Fitting T1Rs: 245/35/19 = £171.04 Inc VAT & Fitting 275/35/19 = £199.72 Inc VAT & Fitting That price is for them if they come with these wheels in this group buy. We can offer tyres seperately if needed, and can get prices as required.

I am finding some prices for F452s and T1Rs. Once they're in (this afternoon) I will put a package together. I'll try and find some bigger pictures, and some more pictures of different colours and the likes.

We can offer tyre packages too, what would you like? This is Ben, Julian is sat across from me, but I am chief in charge of forum things, to keep reply times down, rather than have Julian run everything! With regards 18s, we do the full range of 18s, Torques, GTRs etc, and I will put another post up with them later on. This offer is to launch these new wheels to you chaps. Now... what's this about JPEGs?

Thanks for all the positive response! I have edited the original post to show ideally we are looking for 5 orders for this group buy to go ahead.

Hello 350Z Owners. With the arrival of our new Rota GTR 19x9 ET20 and 19x10 ET20 we thought it was time we got ourselves on here! They're made to measure for 350Zs, and really look the part! 9s 10s These are available in the following finishes: Silver with polished lip Flack black with red lip Bronze White - in stock in 2 weeks We were thinking of starting off with a group buy on them, to get the ball rolling. Standard retail price is £230 for the 19x9s and £250 for the 19x10s. This is price per wheel, including VAT. Group buy price is going to be a 15% discount - so £816 for a set of 4 including VAT. We would like to see 5 orders in order to get this going, but depending on interest, might be able to work with slightly less. Standard next day delivery to mainland UK is £20. This offer is running from today for 1 month. Get your names down, and we will get in touch to arrange payment and delivery once the buy is closed. We have some stock here, and more coming all the time, so the first 5 orders can be sent straight out, and further orders will be a few weeks for delivery. Let us know what you think!
