thanks, I actually was in search of the 17's cause I did not want to fork out the cash for the 18's then I found those ridiculously cheap so I picked them up. I'm loving them, stock yet aggressive looking

Dubbya, Im glad you took that pic. Ive been wanting a good pic of your car to show off the whole look of the tokico springs setup. I think Im going to go with those. Hopefully I will have some with illuminas before Maxus 06. If anything else that will be my goal. Along with some other stuff.

The 350Z and G35 are rear drive cars. The offset on these wheels are different from the front drive wheels. The weight of front drive wheel sets are moved inboard (mounting plane outward) due to the torque put on the wheels while turning. Rear drive cars doesn't need this compensation so the mounting plane is more inward.

So the best are the 5th gen. wheels.

Heres the link to help you out:

I highly doubt there is going to be that much of a difference in strength of the rims. Maybe if you buy some super light weight or cheap ebay wheels.

I am not quite sure but I think it is a precessional problem in using a rear drive wheel on a front drive car, may cause the wheel to hop under power.

They're stock wheels so they definitely strong enough. Since they're cast and heavy ie they arent made to be thinner and lightweight, theyre wayyy less prone to any bending or cracking.

I was driving thru Kentucky last week and saw a guy with 4th Gen rims on his 2k2 SE. I had never even thought to go that way with the 4th Gen rims. It looks so wierd, anyone else saw this?

Will these bolt straight on a 4th gen or do you have to modify them in any way?

wtf? seriously? you bumped a 5 year old thread to ask that?


Yes, they have to be modified you have to shave 25mm off the hub to get them to fit.

I'm sorry dude. I was just trying to avoiding re-posting about a topic that had already been asked, so I found a topic about it and posted a reply. I didn't actually pay attention to the date, so I apologize for posting.

But, thanks for letting me know about the 25 mm I'd have to shave off.
