Anyone thought about trying these 05 350Z 35th Anni wheels?

Here's the 05 35th Anniversary 350Z, comes with 18" alloys and Brembos.




Does anyone have these wheels on G35? If so, please post some pics here. What do you guys think? I bet they'd look great.

18" wheels on the anniversary 350Z are cast wheels. I would think these are actually heavier than the older 18" Rays Engineering forged rims. I'd think they would throw in some Nismo rims for the anniversary edition 350Z.

If you can point me to the url of a good profile of the wheel, I can add it to my custom wheel configurator so you can see what it looks like (see my sig for link)

What kind of distance do you want from the wheel? There a Z at the local Nissan dealer with these rims....I'll go by and get a photo of it....I guess I should get the whole car in frame....

Any size is fine, I can resize them in photoshop. Just make sure you get back at last 8-10 feet or more. If you get too close, you see too much of the inner wheel (it looks cone-shaped). You can post it here, PM or just email it to me (viral@eachat.net).

I test fitted these on my G and did not like them at all. The stock 18's look much much better. The 35th anniversary rims look waaay too much like the rx-8 rims.

I went by there, but they moved a bunch of Z's too close to it....couldn't get a very good pic from far, but I got a decent close-up...will this work?

Ok, got the 35th Anniversary Z wheels up. (I also added the OEM 17s for comparison). I've attached a quick view of Brilliant Silver w/ the 35th Anniv Z wheels, but it's easiest to just go to the configurator (see sig) and choose your color.

PS: these came out with a hint of gold in them. I desaturated them a bit, not sure if they are supposed to or if it was just the way light reflected off them.

Thanks Viral!....I think the gold is from the flash on the digi..sorry. Cool configurator...

P.S. I would still like to see some pics of the real thing from different angles if anyone out there has these wheels on a G35 Coupe.

eh keep them on the Z. The G's 18's are much better suited for the G than these rims.
