Branzach BZ-16, BZ-11 in 18x8, 18x9 gunmetal, yay or nay? (many other colors as well)

I have found some wheels that resemble my caffeines with a 5-spoked flared look. These flare at the beginning of the spoke, but they still are better then plain flat spokes.

They have them in our offset (+30 - +45) and bolt pattern (5x114.3). At first I didn't really think they were too special, but then I thought of what they might look like on my Maxima. I think they could possibly look beautiful. They are lipped too, so I would polish it later on. They(BZ-16) are available in a total of five different colors:

1)Anthracite (gunmetal) -

2)Black pearl -

3)Chrome -



Also, check these wheels out, the BZ-11's. They are available in the same offset, size, and bolt patterns. They look more flashy then the BZ-16's, but I don't know which would look better on my Maxima? Check out the colors they are available in (See next threads):


There's a few problems, however. Let's say I put 18x8's in the front and 18x9's in the rear. What will I do when it comes time to rotate the tires? I also don't know how much the wheels weigh or cost, but I'll keep looking.

Check out their website for reference: www.branzach.com

Yeah they are, I love the CP-1's too, but I really really want a lipped gunmetal rim! Decisions, Decisions.

I think the BZ-16's look a little odd, but i think that the BZ-11 in black pearl would look nice. Those white BZ-16's are particularly bother me, I really would not like to see those on a max.

Wow this is something I haven't experienced in a long time, a wheel brand I have honestly never ever heard of before. Anywho, I'm not digging the 1st style at all, the second style is ok, looks like Mille Miglia Action Sports with a lip. Honestly I'd keep looking though.

Well, I was talking to SeximaGTR on aim one day and he informed me that he is buying your SC. Well, after you have pondered over the VB mod, finally got it and was disappointed, considered a 5spd swap, were selling the max for a 300zx, decided against that and bought a supercharger, thought of converting to 5spd again, decided against that again, took off the SC and sold it, decided on selling max again, kept max, kept autotragic, bought another supercharger, and now your selling that. Don't even get me started on rims.

You are worse than I am! In the beginning I was going to VB mod my max, then I was going to convert to 5spd (which I did), then I was going to sell it for a Cobra, then I decided against that, then I was on the verge of buying a Z28, and now I am supercharging.

Like I said in my other thread, I hope you don't go through your women like you do your mods!
