max Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 a set of 19 inch ruff alloys on e-bay for sale with optional tyres, will the 285 rears fit with out scuffing the arches. max. Quote
lomoto Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Whose the seller Max? any link to which wheels they are?.. I have the Ruff Racing wheels 19" very pleased with mine 285 should be fine ,but what aspect ratio are they? Quote
max Posted August 19, 2006 Author Posted August 19, 2006 big wheels are selling them not very good with the link option but will have a go . max Quote
lomoto Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 no probs max , thats where I got mine from...good seller if he says they will fit you will be OK are these the ones? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/19-NISSAN-350Z-SK ... dZViewItem Quote
max Posted August 19, 2006 Author Posted August 19, 2006 yes been looking at them for a while, says thay are slightly marked and has dropped the price just have to talk the misses around now. max. Quote
rickya Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Go for it, if it was 6 months down the line I probably would have bid on them. Seems like good value for money due to a couple of little scuffs. But dont get the second hand rubber for £300, better to get all new rubber of your choice IMO. Quote
Sarnie Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Been looking at these for a while: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/20-GTR-Skyline-RB ... dZViewItem Think they would look good on a UY? Thoughts? Quote
buds Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Actually mate, i do think they would look nice! There was a thread re a virtual mod mock up thingy! (technical eh? ) And the Y looked v nice with the black wheels, though the mocked car had what appeared like a CF bonnet. http://www.digimods.co.uk/images/Virtua ... an350z.jpg Dont think its same colour as yours?! But should give you an idea! Like i said i like it imo Quote
M13KYF Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 look nice Max and yes as pionted out don't forget the forum discount Quote

max Posted August 19, 2006 Author Posted August 19, 2006 have you just fitted falkens to your z. max. Quote
lomoto Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 have you just fitted falkens to your z.max. had new Falkens on my 18" wheels , but got Conti's on the 19" rims from the guy selling the wheels your intrested in, again they seem very good tyres a vast improvement on the Bridgestones Quote
Digsy Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 I'm going with Falkens when my wheels come (there doesn't seem to be an impatient smiley!) in 245/35/19 and 275/35/19. Quote

Jacko Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 Been looking for some pics of Kevs car but can't find any. Can anyone help? Liam, here is one of Kev's pics from Wales drive out..... Quote

Digsy Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 Kev worked hard to get those offsets just right and you've got to say he was spot on! Quote

Max, I'm doing the same front but 275 at the rear. There seem to be plenty who have that combo. Blacky has just got 285's so it may be worth a PM. I suspect the offset is just as important as the tyre width though and that's a minefield best left to those more clued up than I. Good luck. Quote
