Mrcofpep Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I have got std 17in Nissan alloys on my Z. Want to ugrade, what is the ride like with 19's. It is often much cheaper to buy aftermarket alloys, but my experiences with them is that they corrode after 1-2 years which is unlikely with geniune parts.. Anyone have same issues?

Cheers Mark With 19" I feel no perceiveable difference in ride over the 18"'s I had previously.... I think you will find "genuine " rims will corrode just as well as aftermarket makes if not cleaned/ waxed regularly..a lot of people have had issues with Rays bubbling on paintwork due to corrosion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me - Megs liquid wax. It makes them so much easier to clean. Just remember the insides! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Well after you clean them. Give them a wax and next time they should clean with water - no need for cleaner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
