I actually like the way those wheels look, and a few people i know had them on 350zs and they looked great, for some reason i've never seen them on a SC where i thought they looked right..

Not a fan. I don't like the faux bolt and faux lip either.

They just dont look right on an SC. Ive seen them look pretty good on G35 body, but thats about it.

my friend had these on his MKIV; they're heavy as hell and bend easily.

Here is my Z32 posted by 350z-guy on 3zc.com. It has 19" up front and 20" in the rear. Not my favorite but I have to rock them for a while. If I every get time I will put them on Lex to see if they look ok.

Care to pass on this great deal? I personally LOVE those wheels. Plus I can rock them on my Lex and my Supra.
