With so many switching out their stock wheels and rims, I was wondering what people were doing with them. Like, if you were trying to sell them, them what did you get for them?

 

They aren't worth much, so I just held on to mine. I have like 3 sets of stock wheels at home.

 

dedicated winter wheels? thats wut i should've done

 

mine are winter wheels

 

winter wheels with winter only tires for me

 

Stacked mine in the garage along with all my other stock wheels. Someday a use will come along (selling the car and keeping the better wheels?). Winter tires would be a good idea, but, the BBK I'm planning takes care of that idea :-\

 

4 snows for me best in the winter

 

you can Ebay them also, I got lucky and bought 5 17" Anniversary Edition 350Z rims for $257 shipped. I later sold my stock 16" 5 star rims and tires for $425.

 

One is in the trunk as a Full Size Spare. The other Three are Idleing harmlessly in Neutral until Fall time, as for it doesn't see winter.

 

the wrong place to post this.....but anyone know a good place to get the infiniti BBS center caps.

Nothing on ebay.

1996 I30 touring 5sp

 

They're sitting in my garage along with my Momo's

 

mine are just taking up space. I'll probably sell them as soon as I find someone willing to pick them up and pay about 200 -which is probably not going to happen! Otherwise, I'd have to see if some junk yard is willing to swap them for cash and a set of stock 17"'s or 18"s so I can get the BBK - As soon as I get off my a$$ and start looking!

 

What are the BBS center caps?

 

i have one in my trunk for spare for right now but im still trying to sell all four of them for 200 bucks or best offer..... BUY IT PPL!!!

 

u sure they are authentic? I've heard of forged Z rims.

 

Ill buy 16" i30t wheels w/ 50% tires for 200$... not SE wheels though, I don't think they look right on my car. ur in SD eh... if only u had an i30 instead..

 

I have a question about buying 17" wheel packages for my 1998 I30. Basically, I know that the recommended 17" tire size (in terms of keeping the overall tire diameter the same as the stock specs...which is around 24.7") is 225/45/17.

I read somewhere that getting tires/wheels that had more than 5% difference in diameter was bad for the car's brkes, and possibly unsafe.

Anyone else hear this?

 

you can put slicks on sawblades

 

Why is everyone using the stock wheels/rims as winter tires? Is this to avoid salt damage on your rims?

 

lo pros aren't the best for slippery wet conditions. cheaper to get 15" winter tires than 18". also, keeps the expensive 18s in great condition.
