    For such a blocky looking rim, the first image im liking today. Just looks tough. The white letters tie in well. Ive seen it before and thought no. But today. Yes.

    Redrum them for width ;)

    Do you guys really think they are good looking wheels :confused:

    look like 15 inch centres stepped up to a 17 or 18 inch dish .

    so 80's style

    yuck

    flame on :p

    Cmon Anti. You have better taste than that.
    They look so "old school" suit a 240 or 280 zed but not a z32.

    I miss my modenas...regret selling it but it was more use to somebody else rather than just gathering dust in my garage

    Theo i hope your getting the wider ones at the rear like i had which seem to be not as common

    They definitely are a period rim. But on the right car with the right colour they just seem to work.

    The silver zed image, anti posted, I don't think works as its rims vs body kit. Also ride height doesn't do them anything good. So as a whole it's just no good.

    But the first image, just seems to work. Zed looks raked, low and sleek. It reminds me of a US styled track car.

    I think there wheels need to be flat, almost flush to look great on the zed....and lowered. The set up on the first zed posted just seems to work.

    I reckon your current wheels suit the car better...

    Sanouske has pretty much hit the nail dead on the head. I'm talking re barrelled up to 18x10.5 and 18x11, stretch, filled in sidewalls, and you guys know me - dumped on the ground. They'd look amazing. I only included the picture of the grey zed there because it's the only gunmetal Z32 I have a photo of with them fitted.

    I wouldn't sell the VMRs, I love them too much haha.
    Well considering they're essentially rip off F40 wheels, I think they're bang on period correct. Not to mention the Z32 is a somewhat rip off F40 anyway...
    HOT. thank you!
    I am familiar with those wheels haha. Baller, but very expensive and I've always liked Modenas.
    Shame you got rid of them. I doubt you had a set of the 17x10.5's, they're almost unheard of. Most people think the 9.5's are the biggest.

    Theo mine were 9.5" rears with 8.5" at the fronts...i dont even think they came as 10.5 unless they were custom. Very nice looking rims & I'm sure it would look nice on your zed. I sold mine almost a year back now & i got a good price for them considering it had gutter damage from the previous owner
