If im lucky... according to Chris, I should expect the shipment sometime early September? Then I gotta go pick it up in Niagara! Like Ian!

Now I just have to decide on tires.. hmmmmm... Hancook Ventus V12 are getting lots of praise lately.

Yes sir, we are shooting for an early Sept. ETA for your wheels. It will be worth the wait especially since you will be the first person rocking 20" F14s most likely

I'd try out the Hankook tires Wes, I've been reading excellent reviews on them also and when I need tires for my personal car I will be giving them a shot.

Thanks for finding out about the Akebono BBK fitment. Do you have any more photos of the Titanium finish? That last S5 looks like it could be either Titanium or Gunmetal.. not sure if its the lighting, but looks good regardless.

And those new centercaps look great!

I CANT WAIT! Im liking the sound of being one of the first to rock 20's on the F14's with the new centercaps too!!

Thanks Chris. I think i will try Hankooks. Looks like I cant go wrong.

What tires are you currently running on your 350z btw?

Titanium is definately a lot lighter than gunmetal.

More cars with the Titanium finish:

Right on. Hmmmm... interesting set of tires. Maybe I'll consider those too.

Any vibration at higher speeds?

The F14's on the S5 almost look like 20's. If I didnt know that 20's werent available yet (at the time that photo was taken), i would have thought they were 20's.

I can only imagine how big my 20's will be. hahaha

They really do.. Titanium on Black looks really good. Now the internal conflict.. 18s or 19s. I plan to track but prefer the 19s aesthetically, and there isn't a huge difference in price.

^Well if your planning on running track tires on them, then you better go with 18's, but if your gonna run street tires and track the car ocassionally, then I would go with the 19's. I think 19's on a 1st gen cars are just about perfect.

Nah, they are good at all speeds so far. Actually I am surprised they are holding up fairly well because I am running.....lets just say.....a tad aggressive with my Z

My tires are pretty stretched and I am running negative offsets on my wheels
