They are ok..... Why spend money and get 17s? Either get 18s/19s or just keep your 17s

Yeah i would go with the 18's and i think that it depends on the color of you car dark wheels i think only look good on a few colors.

You mean hubcentric rings? I didn't use them. Handling will depend on your suspension setup/your tires and not so much your wheels. I'm just using these for winter and I'm not out there trying to tackle corners the fastest. So far so good except the soft sidewall of Ziex 512s......

They look decent. Could definately be worse. If you like them go for it.

Actually, they look ok. But yes, too small and Nakayama sucks

Not my style. I would rather just keep my stock 17's for a while more...save some $$$.........then buy at least 18's! I can't see spending $$$ on rims that are the same size as my stocks? I would suggest you buy my set of 350Z stocks for $600! They're in excellent condition with about 3k miles on the tires.
