I got an offer on the G35 wheels that I couldn't refuse. I put both up on kijiji and by the end of the night a guy came and gave me cash for them. The 350Z are still up for sale. Though I like the G35 it just didn't look right on the car because it wasn't slammed and it was 18X8 all around.

The Z is heavier but it's staggered. The money I made on the G35's I bought this. Let me know what you all think

I have about 5 sets of rims and suprisingly these 18" with slicks and air weighed 42lbs compared to my 17" with drag radials which was about 50lbs and my 350Z was the heaviest weighing in at a whopping 58lbs with street tires.

Is this the right move for the track? I'd hope so. Getting these rims shaved a good amout of weight off so I'm hoping I run better than 14.2 if I can get my car running at it's best minus the bodykit and seats

Drag rims with drag radials weight is 50lbs

Yeah man them those OEM wheels were mad heavy. Selling them and upgrading was the smart thing to do. I forgot the offset, I more went by weight and bolt pattern and looks. As far for repainting it I doubt i'll touch it because it's brand new and I don't want to depreciate the value. The other ones needed touching up and refinishing. If they came in black I would of definitely gotten it but unfortunately they don't.

Oh well I'll use these one for now until I get bored of them and I see something better and lighter.
