    350 on Gram Lights and your opinions ........

    About 7 years ago, a chap on here posted up pics of his S14 on Rays Gram Lights 57 Pros, and I decided then that I had to have a set.

    Finally after all this waiting I found a chap on Driftworks selling some and was there like a rat up a drainpipe. These are 18x9J +12 on the front and 18x10J +12 on the back:


















    But! I need centrecaps and wheel nuts ......... what do you reckon to blue Rays nuts:



    With pukka Gram centre caps

    I reckon they would be a bit dark personally .............

    Those wheels were look fantastic on the 350, with regard to the centers and wheel nuts, I would match them with your caliper colour FTMFW

    Very nice indeed! If you could find a set in 19", they'd be mindblowing though .

    If I was you I'd probably get some Kics Project open faced lug nuts for extra tyteness points .

    Stick with silver I reckon anodized blue in a non identical colour might look a bit tacky

    Look hawt though But, as your heart is telling you, Spacers+deckage.

    /\ Yup Silver looks best. I though the Gram Lights had a titanium lip that was all multicoloured and pretty?

    Like this:



    Yours still look though!

    There are about a bazillion different types of Gram Lights - You don't have to get the tacky looking ones

    Hey! I like the shimmering lips! (and I'm not talking about Rimmel!!!!) Not keen on the chrome centers on those though. Didn't Pablo get a set for his S15 only to sell them before he fitted them?

    Too much IMO and they are 57c's (weaker dish)

    That said, there was a 600hp black Skyline at Duxford on Sunday that looked the mutts with them on

    Dont fancy gold centres/nuts, silver FTMFW I reckon. Having said that, how cool are these! http://www.optionimports.com/kiprr26neoch.html

    Quail - 19's would throw the traction control off, and Im not putting any more spacers on as the handling is the bollocks without them

    I cant afford any others

    Anyway, that joke is new to the boards... Tell you what, you know that Citreon advert, distinctivley german... *made in france; was that not stolen from an early 350z advert idea but distinctively JDM instead?

    Will that do you mate?

    Doc, they look the nuts mate

    Would definatly get the Rays wheel nuts in Blue, although i went for the longer open ended (type 2?) version. They are really, really good quality though mate.

    Not sure about the centres, i might well go for a set of silver ones.......

    My dad's Z33 had 19s on, and the TC was absolute ****. Maybe this was why! The car always felt faster with it disengaged anyway

    I wanted a set titanium RMC. :P I might get a set, at some point.
    Car looks nice. Simple rims. Just a shame that its saxo blue.
    18s? Good choice. My car handled much nicer with my black 18s than my silver 19s. I miss having wideass tyres...not the cost but the fact they rode over bumps, wheras my 180 wheels get caught by the ruts.
    Don't think 18 x 9" x 275s would fit on the back of my 180.
    What a waste of a set of LM-GT4s.
