Forgeline ZX3P Wheels, 20x8.5" ET38 and Nitto Tires, G35 Sedan


Forgeline ZX3P Premiere Series Wheels
  • 20x8.5"
  • ET38 offset
  • 64.1mm centerbore
  • 5x114.3 mm bolt pattern

Wheel features:
  • 3-piece wheel
  • Forged aluminum 6061 T6 centers, powdercoated gunmetal grey
  • Spun aluminum 6061 T6 lips, chrome finish
  • Stainless steel 6-point aircraft grade fasteners, stamped with "Forgeline" logo
  • Originally $1200/ea + extensive wait time
  • Check out http://www.forgeline.com/wheels/zx3p.html for more info.

Nitto NT555 Extreme Tires mounted on wheels, P245/35ZR20 size

Total package used for only 1000 miles! Absolutely no curb rash on the wheels, and no scratches on the powdercoated face.

These were originally made for an Acura TL w/ 64.1mm center bore. However, these will also fit Nissan/Infiniti cars if you have the center bore drilled out 2mm to 66.1mm (I believe this is what the G35/350Z runs). From the offset and size specs, it looks like this would be a perfect setup for those G35X sedans who'd like to run equal sized wheels & tires all around.

$3000.

I just realized that I assumed all G35's were hubcentric. If that is not true, then you will not need to have the center bore enlarged to use these wheels.

what are you talking about man?? your wheels are hubcentric to the TL that you own...when you say g35s are hubcentric what do you mean? Your wheels hub bore will not clear g35s because we have 66.1 and i would not recommend to open up the hub bore...dont confuse people...

WTF? As I stated before, I was not sure if G35's were hubcentric or not. If they are indeed hubcentric and require a 66.1mm bore, then the wheels will need 2mm machined out of the center. Maybe before bashing me, you should look up "hubcentric" and think through a logical argument?

Contrary to your "recommendation," this is quite common in the wheel business. Almost all wheel repair shops and most machine shops can handle this work, most for very little cost (<$50/ea). What do you think Forgeline does to get them to fit your car's center bore? The center forging is made the same, the bolt pattern and center bore are simply drilled to the correct specs. Yes, they just drill them out to the specified size! I think you are the one who's confusing people...

you are a dumbass...you state that g35 are hubcentric....hubcentric to what???
you stated in the first post that the g35 was a 66.1 already and your wheels were 64.1

you should say that the wheels are hubcentric to the car...you should look up what the exact definition is...

also, i know that a machine shop can bore out the centerbore of most wheels, but the structural integrity of a wheel will and most likely suffer...the manufacturer therefore will not honor a wheel when it goes bad due to re-boring and re-drilling bolt patterns...i used to work for a big aftermarket wheel company...i should know...get your facts straight before you question me noob...get outta here you noob! You probably don't even own a g35, just here to sell your wheels that don't fit...

Wow, personal attack city. You are so e-tough. BTW, if you don't know what hubcentric means, then by all means at least Google it. I'll save you some work:

"HUB CENTRIC
Definition: A wheel that is centered or located on the hub by a machined center hole-as opposed to "lug centered" wheels that are located by the position of the lug nuts alone. "

Thus, the reason why I stated above I am not sure if indeed the G35 requires hubcentric wheels. By this point, it has been established that they indeed do, which astonishes me why you care to belabor this point...

By your same reasoning, I must be a cellular phone expert since I used to work for one of the big 3 telecom companies in the world. But I'm not an expert on cell phones. Likewise, I don't think that qualifies you in any way to know much about wheels. You could have been working on the shipping dock for all we know. Oh pardon me, a "wheel expedition engineer."

Hey, that's the first correct thing you've said! I am a "n00b," if the oh-so-important post count is all you care about. You're right, I don't own a G35. I own an '06 FX35. They don't fit the FX either. These wheels also DON'T fit include BMW's, Mercedes, Chevrolet, and Ferrari.

Hey I've got an idea. How about you lay off my thread, since it is obvious you neither have the resources or desire to buy these wheels? Let an EDUCATED consumer decide if it is worth it to them to purchase a $6k wheel & tire package for less than half of retail. Mmmmm k?

^^^dude, i'll lay off your thread, but you just don't want to admit you don't know the fvck you're talking about...so you don't know if a G35 requires hubcentric wheels, and say that if it does not, then it will fit...haha....i'm tired of replying to your lame non-educated quack knowledge...good luck with selling those wheels...
