I think the 350Z Track Edition wheels are sexy as hell. Theyre 18" and weight around 18lbs. Theyre made by Rays.

If you can find four front wheels, the offset is +33mm and IIRC are 8" wide. I was trying to run them on my CL but they are too aggressive for me. The 3rd gen should be able to pull it off and still run a beefy tire. The rears are +30mm and 1/2" wider.

They are very heavy and I'm not a fan of 19' wheels. I think each wheel is like 28 pounds!!

Z Track wheels FTW.

I really want to see if the 370Z Nismo wheels would fit on the TL. The concavity of the rear wheels is hawt.

Thanks for the offer man but I just got back from looking at a set. They look sick but to much money. I'd love to get some and powdercoat them black, it'd look real good IMO.

I just got done with doing yard work for the last 5 hours. I hate fall and the leaves falling off the trees. Makes mowing take so much longer than it's supposed to

Today was one of the few times that I didn't hand wash my car but rather took it to a touchless wash. Best $8 I've spent in a while.

I agree. I do this every once in awhile. It just doesn't do too well on the wheels though.

Yea. They used to be cheap when people would swap them out for other wheels, but then they started to realize what they had and started asking stupid money for them.

If you look hard enough you can still find a set on Craigslist in the $500-750 range. Its getting harder though to find them.

So I had an accident. No real damage. I'm embarased to say it on this forum but I hit another 2006 TL. And it was black just like my car. Paint was messed up on both of our cars on the bumpers only. I'm sure it won't cost much to get either car fixed since the both of us just need to get our bumpers repainted.

I told him about azine. He didn't seem too interested. We talked about alot of stuff since it took 45 minutes for the police to show up. He was a nice guy.

I've been saying for months that I wanted to have my front bumper repainted because of rock chips. I guess now is as good a time as any.

Everyone is perfectly fine. I told the guy I would just pay for it without going through insurance. Even the cop thought that was a good idea. But I called my insurance anyways. I'd rather pay a little more a month than a whole bunch at one time. Especially since I'm leaving for a vacation tommorrow.
