ab350z Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Folks, looking for pics anyone has with 18s other than Rays. I'm looking at replacing mine as they are quite badly kerbed and been looking at Rays GTR's, Torque's or Time Attacks but just wanted to see what other 18s look like. I think the Rays looks a touch on the small side, but I do admit the car as standard needs spacers. Quote
Digsy Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Some of the nicest 18"s I have seen. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... highlight= Quote
ab350z Posted August 29, 2008 Author Posted August 29, 2008 would need lowered though. I spoke to RareRims today and for a 6-8 week wait they now do Rota GTR's in 19". £900 for 4 without tyres. Quote
dcash5 Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Few more of the 18's And yes lowering is in the pipeline ..... If paypal hadnt screwed me .... Quote
Stew Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Speak to Phil, I know he was very competitive in Rota 18s. If 19s are available then I reckon he could get them. Quote
bigphil Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Yep just found out yesterday that 19's will be available, we will probably order a stock next week and will confirm a final price on them when I have full details. in the meantime pics on 18's Quote
ab350z Posted August 29, 2008 Author Posted August 29, 2008 Yeah I shot Phil a PM aswell and he said they don't do the GTR's in 19" BUT RareRims told me today that this was just new? I'm just wondering if a wider 18 than the Ray's, lowered 30mm would look the part, judging by the above pics I think it prob would. Quote

Wait for the 19s. You'll kick yourself if you don't! Quote

ab350z Posted August 29, 2008 Author Posted August 29, 2008 Purely a matter of price. I'm not sure of the difference on a wheel/tyre package between 18s and 19s, but the 19s without tyres is £900 thats hitting the top end of what I want to spend really. Add another £600 to that for tyres and I'm way over budget. Quote
bigphil Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Any pics of the 19s Phil? Rota 18'' wheel and tyre package approx £1200 Rota 19'' wheel and tyre package approx £1350 19'' Rota's front GTR Rear GTR front spectrum raer spectrum Quote
ab20000 Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Any idea if the torque drifts be in 19" as well? Whats offsets do the 19" GTR/(and maybe TDs) come in? Quote

ab20000 Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 er not sure why this posted three times, not intended thats for sure. Quote
bigphil Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Any idea if the torque drifts be in 19" as well? Whats offsets do the 19" GTR/(and maybe TDs) come in? I am sure the Torque drift will be in 19'' as well dont have any pics yet, will know more about offsets etc on monday. Quote
ab350z Posted August 30, 2008 Author Posted August 30, 2008 Is there any issue having the rears on all corners? Quote
bigphil Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Is there any issue having the rears on all corners? no, we have run the 18'' version with 9.5 width on all corners, very common in the states, allows for much more variation on tyre sizes. Quote
ab20000 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Any news on other 19s (TDs specifically) and off-sets yet Phil? Quote
Digsy Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Any news on other 19s (TDs specifically) and off-sets yet Phil? Looking at the American sites there's no mention of 19" TDs just yet and the offsets for the GTRs look to be +20. Quote
ab20000 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Thanks Digsy - can I ask where you saw this re the GTRs? I looked on the US site (rotawheels.com) and they say 19 x 8.5 - 25 off-set only. Quote
