i was just offered to buy these rims and tires that the g owner says he only has had for 3 months for $1200...should i buy?

 

^not unless you want your car to look as bad as that one. Not a fan of those. The offset is too high on them...spacers might make them look a tad bit better.

 

thanks for the response. listen i decide on some wheels. The Axis Penta's in 20's! Planning on buying Wednesday. I'm not getting my car dropped at all and I'm definitely not getting spacers. F that. What type of tires should I get? I heard the offset should be 20F 25B. And the rims are going to be 20 9.0 F and 20 10.0 R.

 

varianzas, volk racing gt-f. MY fav g rims

 

it was mines 2 until i saw the lip on the axis pentas....i am getting the put on this next week!

 

IMO you are definitely gonna regret going w/ Axis after about few months. At least I know I did. I truly regret not doing enough research in the beginning and just settling for low quality cast 1 pc wheels. Consequently, I had my Axis Shines for only a few months before I ditched them for some much lighter, stronger forged Rays wheels.

But if you are happy and confident about your choice, that's all that should matter!

 

i was thinking about the axis shine too, but it wasn't enough for me. Only complaint I hear about the axis pentas is how heavy they are. And honestly I'm not too concerned about it NOW just because I never really push my car at all. Right now I'm just going for looks...if the weight does become a concern then Ill probably just buy the Volk SF Winning or just buy performance parts. BTW, I want to order springs so they will be here when my rims arrive. What should I get for 20s? My offsets for the 20's will be 20" F and B....i want the same drop as this guy...

 

If you're not dropping your car who cares about offsets.

 

Try browsing through the suspension section to read through the array of options you have for springs. There are endless pages of useful information from many members which will definitely help you make your decision. It might take some time and may seem tedious at first. However, this is YOUR car and YOU should be the one who ultimately makes the decision. Check out the pictures and read through all the information on drop height, spring rate, etc and narrow down your choices.

Good luck!

 

thanks i will do that now...and 4DGS i am lowering my car...thats why i am getting new springs

 

huh?

 

ahh, yeah. Sorry, thats b4 I did my research and saw that changing the springs wont change the ride too much. Sorry about that. This is what I got so far.

20" Axis Pentas - Hyper Black

Front - 245/35/20 Falken Tires with 20x9 wheel
Back - 275/30/20 Falken Tires with 20x10 wheel

Thats on order and expected to get here on the 31st. And I know I am going to want to get it lowered the exact same day. Im looking to get Teins or Eibach's. With the same drop as the pic I just posted. That would be perfect. Just dont know which ones to get. Im still not getting spacers and I'm trying to avoid having to get a camber kit....

 

Buy a rear camber kit and forget about the front. The cash for the kit doesn't weigh out how much you'll burn tires.

Buy Tein S-techs for the Z, not the G coupe. Gives a better drop.
Look into tanabe springs as well.

 

No you got the wrong size up front, you shouldve gone with 245/30

 

really? a lot of people were telling me 30s ride real rough, and told me to get 35s. is that giong to cause a lot of problems?
