Looks great. I am liking the PIAAs more and more! I can't believe the lip is that big! Do they come in chrome?


Great job, love it Neffster. :biggthum: :toast: :kewl:

Thanks for the compliments guys. The wheels only come in hyper black and silver, but the lips on both are high polished aluminum with clear coat and it looks just like chrome.

The springs go on Thrusday afternoon at 3pm. Friday morning I'll wash and detail the G for the weekly "Friday night CFL meet". Daniel, I understand you'll be in town for Halloween Horror Nights. Is there any chance that you'll be able to meet up with us a little early that day? I'll be home all day (off Friday), so call me on my cell if you want to hook up.

Neffster, I really like the rims. I'm just wondering, if you don't mind, how much did the rims cost you with the Toyo tires? I am looking to get a set up pretty soon and I'm really digging yours. :praise: ;)

GOOO!!! Those are some wicked lookin rims! Definitely a step up from the factory set! Good job and good pick. I'm still on my factory 18" and now i have a little more inspiration to take a step up

Mikey-the reason I didn't get the 18" when I got my car b/c I knew I was going to change the rims. Although the 17" kill me when I look at them, I knew like you I had to step it up. I think I have made my choice with the PIAAs. So awesome. I just need to know how much they run so I can tell my guy that owns PTAP so he can order them for me and then install them. :biggthum: :biggrin: :machine:

ya, the whole price thing can be pretty rough! I saw some for 5 and 6 thousand and almost crapped my pants! I'm sorry, but I think 6 grand for rims is a bit extreme (but if you have the $ then be my guest!). I am definitely curious about the price, I want a good set, but I dont want to have to sell blood and plasma for 10 years to pay for it :clue:

Call Racing Zone in Central FL if you want to know the price. I cannot say what I paid, it's part of the deal. These rims (with the tires) are expensive and if you work it right you might be able to get a good deal (good deal being relative). Brian works at Racing Zone and his number is 407-273-0099. Tell him you saw Neff's rims and I referred you to him.

What I can tell you is that my WORST quote was for $2995 for the 4 rims, lug nuts, carbon fiber center caps and hub-centric spacers and $1500 for the tires including shipping (not mounted or balanced). You can do better than that, I promise. If you want a better deal call Brian and tell him I sent you.

Sorry I can't tell you more. I gave my word and I intend on keeping it.

No prob, I totally understand. I will call him tomorrow and ask for a quote. Thanks, Brian.

Canton Canton Canton, I'm going to get spinners just to piss you off. J/k I think I really do like the PIAAs. I just don't want to spend 4k.

K, I am trying to get up there. I hope to be there, but my friend that's coming up with me isn't into cars, I told her that guys would be there and she said maybe, haha. I didn't think about this: I was going to ride up in her car cause she's buying a new one, I have to drive my car so you guys can see the baby, DUH!!! :bonkers: Even if she doesn't come I am pretty sure I'll be there. I can't wait to meet you guys. Maybe I can win some new tires, that would be cool.

Better. I cannot believe how many neck snaps and stares I get now. The Brembos shine in the polished lip and the skinny spokes show off the calipers sooo much more than before! :cool:
I can't imagine how much better it will look after I get my car dropped this Thursday afternoon. :boing:
TEIN H-Techs for the 350Z will be installed and I'll update the photos later...

And Chicklet, friends are always welcome!!... the more the merrier, right!

You're welcome, I can't wait to the baby lowered. I want to lower mine but its so low already that I have scrubbed my exhaust and underneath the car. I am sure this happens to everyone even though (I/we) drive so slowly over bumps, hills and dodge potholes. $h!T happens.

now that you've had these 19"s on for a bit, how do they compare to the stock 18's? [noise, comfort, etc].

Not much of a difference. The air pressure is a little higher, which makes the ride a little more rough. It is definitely subtile enough that the wife doesn't mind it (and I've got my springs on now too)... check the updated thread.
