FYI I am assuming you want these to fit a sedan? It will be a challenge to try and get the 370z 19"s to fit the rears as they are a 9.5 +15. Ur car will need to be massively lowered, stretched tires and also a fair bit of camber dialled in. For a coupe it will be fine.

Hah! Good luck with 10 +15. I'm running 10+43 at the rears and they are already sticking out by about 7mm with a mild drop. Not saying it can't be done but as a daily driver it ain't worth the hassle.

This is what 8.5 +0 and 9.5 +10 looks like.

What you willing to pay? i have the stock V35 18s off my coupe some gutter rash from previous car owner but it is fixable i have been told. im in NSW also so you would prob have to have them shipped, has Kumho rubber on them lots of tread left.

Thanks.

I'm quite newbie with wheels. Had a feel 19x10+15 would be quite hard to fit in under any car especially the front!

Ok so here is pics of my wheels. you can see the gutter rash on them, I was told 2 would just need to be machined and 2 need some filler and a machine, so i went a bit over with all the pics but i want ppl to know what they are buying, i have been told that its fixable by a tyre shop and there seams to be lots of tread left on the Kumhos you can see tyre size and brand in the pics also.

It wont let me edit the above post so ill add this also, im looking for something around 600-700 mark, i had a quote for the tyres for new ones and to get the same it was around 1.2k for all 4 i know the rims are damaged but they are easly repairable for around $300 so i think between 600-700 is a fair price, if i am wrong please let me know im just going off what i have seen sell in the forums before.

I think you're probabaly pretty close to the mark with your sale price :thumbsup: especially with good rubber, they have very minimal damage.. I bought a set to use on my Stagea that were more damaged than these for $350 without usable rubber.

The thing to remember with the Shadow Chrome finish, is the paint itself is over $200 per litre, and requires multiple coats. It also requires all four rims to be painted at the same time. It starts with a black base coat and is built up with the Shadow Chrome finish; getting progressively lighter with each coat. I had quotes of $250 per wheel for this finish.

You'll pay around $600 for refurbishment and a good 2pack paint job; this will stand up to anything you can throw at them.

Another way to go is powdercoat; from around $50 per wheel and you can get pearl & metallic colours (they do cost more).

Not trying to tread on your toes; just sharing my experience. I really wanted the Shadow Chrome, but ended up with Toyota "Tungsten" on mine; looks really nice.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
