900 bucks for 350z rims?

thats a tough decision. Those rims you got now are nice and all, but their too ricey. I mean, if you see it NeedForSpeed: Underground...then its overused IMO. And those 350z rims look clean as hell...

but then again, 900 bucks is either 900 bucks saved, or 900 bucks you can use for other things like an exhuast (if you dont have one) or some other performance upgrades.

IMO, I go for performance first, so I would save the 900 bucks and grab something to get me some power, but I still stick to saying those 350z rims look sexy.

I do not know why they would be concidered ricey.....i mean i harley ever see them on someone's car. These are italian rims that not many people have. I see alot more cars with honey combs like yours than rims like mine.

i do not care that you said it ,i am not arguing or anything just wondering what you were thinking

No problem, I can understand where youre coming from. My reasoning for thought is, I live in houston, and Ive seen quite a few rims like that, or rims that look similar, and also, ive seen rims similar to those in video games, so they just come across the me as over used.

Yeah, ofcourse honey-combs are around, more 95's came with honey-combs than saw blades(from what ive seen around here) Im looking to change those soon, I just dont wanna blow a bunch of money on rims, so Im being patient.

No problem man, like I said, I can respect your opinion, Im not saying I'm right or anything, just saying what I would do, and your perfectly entitled to what you would do.

The Z wheels look better, but in my opinion they don't look $900 better. I say get the MM Actions, they are still very nice rims and that's a pretty big chunk of cash to save.

Or, try to find another set of rims that looks similar to the Z wheels for less money? I don't know how easy/difficult that would be though.

If you can find the 350Z rims for a better price get them, otherwise i'd settle with 1
