Jacko Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 wow very very coool, how much and where did you get those from if you dont mind me asking.. Thanks Chaps..... soooo pleased with them. Just waiting now to finish work to checkout the other two! PM me for details Ash. I got from the states as a lot better deal, but still dented the card pretty badly! I got very lucky as well as they were in stock (last set) so no waiting on lead time from Japan. But I'll post up some more details about supplier later.....

Jacko Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 For anyone that is interested...... I've just weighed them on some digital scales. Now accepted its probably not the most advanced weighing mechanism, but was just interested so that I know the "real world" figure. They came out at Front - 13Kg Rear - 13.8Kg Also will weight the Rays when they come off and they are tyre less etc..... I know the Rays are meant to be around 8.x Kg but we'll see! Just thought I'd let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 interesting, weigh the whole thing with the tyre too mate before you put them on the car if you can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 interesting, weigh the whole thing with the tyre too mate before you put them on the car if you can! Yeah will try...... make look a bit stange in the tyre place with my bathroom scales, but would be interesting to see! ...... Can't see the Rays being that light though...... think thats some interesting marketing going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 My Rays feel a lot heavier than my Volks. So i think 8.x is way out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev946 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 They are really nice Mark. I'm a big fan of Racing Harts. Proper wheels. You've also made a good choice on width and offset. My Work fronts were 9 inch +25, so just about the same. My rears were 10.5 but I always felt that 9.5 or 10 was better. My 10.5's were +29 which will mean your +22 10's will have the outside of the wheel in about the same position to the rear arch. So.....they will look... PS: That picture from teh Dazz website has the Veilside lip as I had and it's got exactly the same fitting issue I had. Notice how it isn;t fitting tightly on the outside next to te wheel arch. I altered mine to fit though. http://www.dazzmotorsports.com/download ... e91814a04d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 [Yeah will try...... make look a bit stange in the tyre place with my bathroom scales, but would be interesting to see! ...... Can't see the Rays being that light though...... think thats some interesting marketing going on? I got new Nismo LMGT4 19" delivered today. The rears ( 9.5" ) weighs exactly 10kg, so the Rays being only 18" and supposedly super-lightweight may well be 8.5kg Lookin good Jacko Gus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially important when you don't have a kit on to "cover"...... Hadn't noticed the lip issue but have now, I see what you mean! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davetstan Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Very nice Jacko,,,,,hope you got a good price. They sell those at the same place I got mine..... http://www.wheelmania.co.uk/gallery/japanese/350z4.html Looking forward to seeing the pics of them on the car.

I went to the Bury branch.... and lets just say I saved over a £1000 on rims alone from not buying from them Also they don't stock em, you'd have to wait a long, long time from there! Getting fitted 1st thing tomorrow so hoping sun holds out to get some decent pics for y'all (and me! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What confuses me is that there are 3 or 4 UK Zeds there with monster wheels yet they don't seem to be members here or the other side nor does anyone ever spot them.........weird!

Thats because they are never driven and are show cars, which are put on a back of a trailer to events and wrapped in clingfilm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
