Wheel looks great...I may have to go back to having that done, it was put on the sideburner. I have the spare wheel waiting tho...
And there is a company that does a flat bottom wheel. It came up in my thread. They mainly do CF wheels, and can flatten the bottom if you want.
http://www.the370z.com/body-interior...ade-order.html
Its not cheap tho. The CF work is about $400, and to flatten and re-wrap the wheel is another $300 or so I think. Too rich for my blood.

Trust me you'll like it! Grip feel difference is night and day!!!
I paid $50.00 shipped for Type-s wheel from ebay! It came with everything but airbag. It's from Automatic though. I just left paddle shift switch on wheel. Just lazy... I think it's great deal.
That wheel looks pretty nice! CF...
You know you want it steven!
Thanks dude!!!

That really looks awesome...I was going to go with headlights next, but I think the steering wheel will be better. Type S headlights are pretty awesome on their own, all I really want to do is remove the amber anyway.
I probably missed it, but is that from redline goods, and it looks like black alcantara and perforated nappa leather on the sides? Any colored stitching?

For the steering wheel, it's from dallas custom steering wheel. You have to send him email at info@dallassteeringwheel.com
Here's detail of mine
Black alcantara for top and bottom
Black perforated leather for side
Black stitching
Added extra 1/8 padding

I do want it! I want a thicker steering wheel with Carbon Fiber and a flat bottom.

Great Progress Henry, seems like you don't waste any time modding a car and making it look good!

Thanks bro!!
Thanks man!
Lol
I did! Thanks!
Thanks dude!
Thsnks steven!
Yeah I might getting rid of Type-s wheels. Cause I also have 8.5 A-spec eherls. I gotta make decision which one I'm gonna keep...
Thanks Ben! Lol What's up dude!! Who's that girl in your avatar??
I mounted tires on RS!
I also took compare pics RZ and RS since I still have RZ.
RZ is 18x9 45 offset and RS is 18x9 29 offset. They look identical. Big difference is spoke. RS's spoke split evenly RZ is not. Good thing about RZ is that they are GTR face even it's on high 45offset. You won't get GTR face for RS on that offset. Both are light weight!!
God damn it! flckr is down for maintenance till 1am...
I guess I have to post them later.
Lol

I did not like the RZ before....
after you posted the comparo pix, I am actually digging the split spokes of the RZ....I am only imagine the amount of concave when you get an aggressive offset....
but u guys with brembo's upfront should have gone with RG...that would have "showcased" the brembo's PERFECTLY....

Looking forward to seeing em mounted!
How is the steering wheel treating you, still loving it? Also - how is the alcantara holding up? I was a little concerned about the longevity of it compared to leather when I was shopping around.

Yeah you can't go wrong either way. Its just personal preference IMO.
Steering wheel still look great so far!!! I asked local member who has had this wheel(same set up) over 2years now. He said still look great!! After I saw his wheel in person, I was sold!! So I copied him!
Everytime I grab steering wheel, I smile! Love it!!! You won't regret bro!!

Sounds good, I think its at the top of the list. Probably will be a few months, but I think I'll have to get it. I was thinking of red stitching on it, but I after seeing yours, maybe just simple black would be best.
