Picture request

I'm looking to put some wheels on my Z. Seems it's very difficult to keep the factory sizes and staggered setup. I'm looking for guys who were able to keep the factory setup and what they bought.

Not at all interested in drag pacs, 18 or 19, or any other option except factory staggered sizes.

Thank you for your time.

I used these for autoX and road course.

Yep. Those are on my short list. I really like the Rohana RFX13 but not sure if they have our sizes.

Here's mine with Forgelines. Not the cheapest option but... Stock sizes. Here's a comparison of original to the Forgelines

Those are nice. I'd have the center part in gold instead of black. Great look on a black car. I like the access to the calipers too for cleaning.

Any opinion on ADV1 wheels?

Thank you Z06Life!! Yeah makes them really easy to clean which I love. Cannot help you on the ADV1 wheels. I only ever owned these and Forgelines. Someone should chime in that’s knows about them.

Those bronze and off gold colors look amazing. They go real nice with LBR.
That orange makes them pop really well.

Maybe check out the new Apex forged VS5RS? I am waiting for my R888Rs to get here and I’ll mount them.

I really like the Rohana RFX13.

And the ADV1 5.0

For some reason it's been hell trying to find out if they have factory fitment for our Z's.

Very nice.

I think I looked them up correctly - just under $4,000?

Aerolarri forged in carbon flash on my current 19 Z. I had BC forged rz05 gloss black on my 17 Z prior. Both in stock sizes and I've put a good chunk of track hours on both sets of wheels. Both sets of wheels had an offset that pushed out the wheels so they lined up with the edge of the fenders with no rubbing.
