I don't believe Nissan ever put any wheel on their 350Z that if I bought one I'd leave on, even chrome wouldn't help.... There's far better wheels aftermarket....my two cents.

Oops my apologies! Another advance search, adding the number 18, led me to these. These were only on the first page too, I'm sure you could find more.

On a DG coupe:
Quick photoshoot with my DG coupe (temporarily on 18" 350Z wheels)

PCed Black set on a OB coupe:
18" 350Z Touring v.1 wheels w/ TPMS

Here is a set on a sedan:
Nissan 350z 18" 6 Spoke Touring Wheels

+1 with what Gary said. The only reason I would get those is price and you can find deals in the marketplace.

...I don't think he is using them for "looks", more for the function of being winter beater wheels.

Using them for looks or not, they're pretty decent looking on the DG and painted black... IMO

If you live in an area where snow tires are needed it doesn't matter too much what they look like. The price is certainly hard to beat.... If I'd known you were looking for "Winter Wear" I wouldn't have boo hoo'd those wheels.

It would be much cheaper to go the route I have been doing... OEM 17's. Rims are cheaper... Tires are a LOT cheaper... Blizzak WS60's.

If you have brembo's you will need to run a 3mm spacer on the front...

Track V1s little love



05 anniversary 06+ touring


There is tonnes of stock nissan wheels I'd run, just wish they were wider. If the 05+ wheels were more like 18x10 +20 I'd run them for sure.
