Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted February 6, 2017 Author Posted February 6, 2017 Few months time ish and i may go for these. Very good price for 19s Quote
Aashenfox Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 If you get a chance, could you weigh them please? Thanks! Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted February 6, 2017 Author Posted February 6, 2017 If you get a chance, could you weigh them please? Thanks! Lol, I wouldn't be worrying about the weight on a set of wheels that cost £525, if you want lightweight wheels then Enkei, Gramlights or wheels of similar stature are the ones to go for. But to be honest the weight of wheels on a 350/370z is going to make next to no difference on performance anyway 1 Quote
Aashenfox Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 (edited) With the greatest of respect, I don't completely agree Firstly, if I was worried about weights I wouldn't be looking at 19s at all, but also, I should never remove my stock Rays, they are the same weight as Enkei RPF1s at the same size. Anybody fitting RPF1 in 19" or above is going to a MUCH less optimal wheel, since every kilo of unsprung weight you save, is worth 8 times that amount of weight above the springs. So, for example, if I swapped my stock Rays for 19" RPF1, the car will feel as though it has gained 32 kilos. Some might not notice it, but I would. RPF1s, for the record, are not forged. Basically, I have a self-imposed, for largely arbitrary reasons (mainly peace of mind that I'm not running wheels that take away from the car's nature or are badly sub-optimal) 10 kilo (22.2lb) wheel weight limit on the Z, and I am also very picky about wheel styles, and this is one I like a lot. Not having the 4 grand required to buy the genuine Weds upon which these wheels are based (they also kinda look like Advan RZ), which are coincidentally one of the lightest wheels there is period, I was very curious what the weight of these is, since the design itself lends itself to very low overall weight. I know it won't be close, spun cast vs true forged is no comparison, but my curiosity was piqued. What I really want to know is if these in 19" are the same weight as the touring rays. If they are, I'll be putting them on the wishlist. I'd like to repeat my request please, if it's not too much trouble. If you don't wanna, it's ok! Edited February 6, 2017 by Aashenfox Quote
StevoD Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 (edited) so your asking is £500 set of 19" cast wheels as light as a set of 19" forged rays. kind of know the answer before even seeing weights and RPF1 maybe cast but their flow form cast not gravity/low pressure cast like most Wheels on the UK market Edited February 6, 2017 by StevoD 1 Quote

There are even a couple of Rotas that do. Edited February 6, 2017 by Aashenfox Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted March 20, 2017 Author Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) Still available to order 2-3 days weight is around 10-12 kg a wheel Edited March 30, 2017 by Tarmac@TarmacSportz Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted March 30, 2017 Author Posted March 30, 2017 Still available, these are a ridiculous price for 19" wheels Grab a bargain Quote

Aashenfox Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) I'm still considering these, do you have any idea the concave (face) difference between the 10.5+20 (which I assume has the deepest face) and the 9.5 +35? Is it flat, slightly concave, or very concave? Which wheel is that pictured? I assume its the 10.5? Thanks mate. EDIT: Don't worry I found em... This is the 8.5+30: This is the 9.5+35: And this is the 10.5+20: The last two photos are identical, so either there was a mistake by the uploader, or they have the same face for all intents and purposes. So they are all concave and there are two faces (9.5 and 10.5 seem to have the same depth). Edited June 12, 2017 by Aashenfox Quote
KosmiK Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Right, finally got mine fitted. Word of warning though, you will need 25mm spacers minimum in the front. Turns out I only had 20mm so had to grind the studs down. I went for 245/30 r19 fronts and 285/30 r19 rears. The light wasn't on my side but here's some terrible pics. 2 Quote

Did you have to grind the studs down because they protrude too far through a 20mm spacer so the wheels don't sit flush? This is the problem I'm having with my other wheels, luckily the rays have cut outs so it doesn't interfere with the protrusion. Was hoping someone would have a sale on 25mm spacers!

Hehe common issue - either grind down or buy new spacer I have some for sale in 25mm if needed Quote
