dmstewart Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Hi all, I want to fit new wheels to my 370 but am having a horrible time of deciding what to go for. I've looked at tons of sites and photos but my preference is to see them in the flesh. Are there any particuarly good shops/outlets anyone knows of that stock lots of examples so I can see them all in one place? I'm in Essex but willing to travel a fair distance if there's any really good places around. Cheers, Darren Quote
Ekona Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Honestly, not really. I think DT may have a few up, and I know of a BMW specialist that has a few hanging on the wall but that's not a lot of use. Have you at least narrowed it down to a shortlist? Might be some members on here who have them Quote
veeg33 Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 ^^ As Dan said, publish your list and see if any forum members have them and they can share pics. Or pic or pics of your car and wheels you wanted, our residence photoshop specialist (Hodaka) can help too --> http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/100906-photoshop-requests/ 1 Quote
Cmw9 Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 +1 for rtec. Look at the 7twenty's 👌 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
davey_83 Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Brum at least we have BMTR & WheelMaina to have a nose Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 How about look at this section here: http://www.torqen.uk/186-wheels We have nice good quality pics in there. Quote
StevoD Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 r-tec is probably closest but i wouldn't say they have a fantastic selection of wheels. same with demon tweek i imagine what they hold in stock is your typical rotas etc that you can see anywhere Quote
dmstewart Posted July 8, 2016 Author Posted July 8, 2016 Awesome, thanks for the links and advice. In terms of what I like, I prefer simple with brushed steel or gunmetal my favoured colour.S ome of my favourites... Forgestar F14's - http://projexuk.com/wheels/forgestar/f14/brushed Rohana RC7's - http://www.elementwheels.com/products.asp?cat=11356 Avant Garde M368 - http://www.avantgardewheels.com/m368.php I am utterly useless when it comes to alloys though so I'm not sure if other brands have similar looks (I'm sure they do), I also don't really know what the best brands are and if there's any to avoid. Again, any thoughts on the above choices or similar, or just ones you think look cool please let me know : ) Cheers Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 JR18 look like a copy of TSW Nurburgring? http://www.torqen.uk/301-nurburgring Quote
StevoD Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 i dont think there copys of TSW but them and TSW are copys of the original design but like most wheels manufactures have a designs which cross close to another 1 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk they do in the USA over here Tsw are one of the halfords chav brands This is essentially exactly what I want my Z to look like. Even if its a bit chav in the US ; ) Edited July 8, 2016 by dmstewart Quote
