Going aftermarket wheels for your Nissan Z?

[NiZmonium]

I would be happy to keep the bronze Rays for a while . They look good and they're already lightweight

Performance: No

Sport: Maybe



edit: Actually, I like the way the Sport wheels look. I'd probably keep them, unless I was embarking on some major mods and track-oriented upgrades.

No because at this rate I won’t have 2c left to my name after purchasing it

Sport wheels look fine, if not very good. Personally I'd have them refinished in bronze or silver.
Anyways, for the sport I'd prioritize some kind of LSD before spending money on wheels.

Most likely TE37 but will probably let keep stock ones for a bit first and do exhaust first

I’m prob going to spend the cash on some volks for the first time lol those bronze te37 I’m running on my boulder on gt7

Exact same plan here, also waiting to see a few other people taking the plunge on TE37 to confirm sizing. They look great with White Pearl in GT7 at least!

DO IT!! they are so light and look amazing...The wonderful thing is, on the Z you should be able to go superwide and get that concavity.

I'd rather go on vacation than mod my car. Seems like a better use for a couple grand. If this was a BRZ, then yeah I'd want to mod it but the Z is very nice as-is.

Yeah, honestly I love the factory look, and I'll stick with it for awhile. Powercooat bronze for sure, depending on what color I end up with. Mentioned it awhile back when I first saw the car in person, but the slightest of spacers would help flush them out to be absolute perfection. Rays rules, lol.

TE's are so sexy, however, and I'd love to see a mock up of RPF1's (another all-time favorite) on this car. Wouldn't blame anyone in the least for slapping a set on.

You could always 3D print your own wheels ... sort of ...

Just don't try taking them on the highway — or anywhere you might need heavy braking​

For some reason I have never been drawn to the ultra customized look of aftermarket rims. I prefer the branded look and always have. Having said that, when I was spec the C8 I loved how they had a lot of choices for the wheels. You could keep the brand spec but still somewhat custom your look, kinda like Porsche. IF Nissan had more wheel choices I would have for sure upgraded.

All of that about wheels notwithstanding, I fully am going to change the exhaust unless there is a nice surprise with the Z sport exhaust. My Invidia on the 370Z was intoxicating and dead quiet with NO drone on the hwy and when you didn't have your foot in it. So I'm a walking contradiction. But sound is everything for me. Like hydraulic steering.

But why not BOTH?
