2003 350 GT RIMS INFO NEEDED

[Zx14rider]

Hi guys, I'm very new to forums so hope I've done this right. 

It seems it's easier to buy a house than find mags for a 2003 Nissan Skyline 350 GT. I went to bob jane T mart and asked for mags for the car, he said he would ring around and email me. When I got the email all it had was a list of bunch of wheel manufacturers......I've already done that by myself. The I went to another place and it seemed to be too hard for them too!

I live in Queensland west side. What I'm looking for is either 17" or 18" mags with a gold centre and machined lips. They need to be legal in Queensland with the correct offset. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What's your budget for wheels? (don't forget money for tyres too)

Do the wheels need to be brand new?
Are you looking for local wheels from Bob Jane or would you prefer some nicer Japanese wheels? 1piece, 2-3 piece?

Look up the websites of the Brands you were given and find which ones suit what you're after.
We can help find you wheels, but need a bit more to work with.

I'm looking around $1500 to $2000 max. Guess I would need tyres in that also unless I can get the stock size rimes as the tyres are fine on the car atm. I love the Hotwire style, the photo is from Performance Wheels I think! see if pic comes up.

There are a TON of different things you need to decide before buying wheels. The fact that you want to keep them legal is very limiting, as most wheels are wider width and offset than stock, in order to fill out the guards properly. IMHO, aftermarket wheels in offsets similar to the stock V35 wheels will look pretty awful on the car, as they will sit a heap inside the guards. PLEASE don't buy Bob Jane or any other crappy Australian brand wheels on your V35!

 

Here is a great resource with pictures, explaining widths and offsets :

Thanks Nightcrawler, I will check those out tonight! Tried to transfer the car into my name today but the slimline plates are considered personalised, so need paperwork to transfer the plates too.
