One Source: Bolt-Ons & Wheels

Hi, Ya' all,
I've recently returned to San Jose after living 2-yrs in (Hilton Head area) South Carolina, after living in Bay Area most of my life. I bought an '07 G35 (Liquid Platinum) coupe a few days after we got here. After I decided I wanted a little more hp and a little bling, I've spent many hours on the 'net. For now, I'm going to add a few "bolt-ons" (including lowering) and wheels (Later, it will be a blower). I prefer to deal with with one source for everything: Does anyone have experience with "The Z-car Garage" in San Jose. I've been to the shop, and I've talked to Rob the owner. I got a "quote" for everything I wanted to do for the near future, and he said he would deal on the wheels I wanted (anyone have suggestions for [19"] wheels...I'm thinking [some] black and [more] chrome...it's a silver car!).

many people here have used Z-Car Garage, they do some great quality work. If you want a shop for everything, that would be your best bet.

Checkout the marketplace on this site for wheels and tires..I picked up my racing harts in the marketplace section and they were on my doorstep within a week.

Wheel purchase

Re: buying wheels: I think probably that Z-car Garage would be my last choice for a wheel purchase. I would prefer doing business with someone in the wheel business. I've PMed two of this site's sponsors.

I know of one horror story that has yet to be resolved after 2 years with a member buying wheels from ZCG. Also, ZCG doesn't necessarily have a distribution agreement, so they get wheels from a distributor and add their fee. Pointless when you can go direct to a distributor...
