Make end tables out of the Dymag's. We put them on a few MT900's, and as far as I know everyone switched to another wheel.

lol yeah , the centers cracks easily and the clearcoating on the barrels flakes too..really a joke for $10K wheels. the newer version come concave and a better centers tho ...they call the magnelliums as they mixes the magnesiums and alluminums .

It's like shoe collecting - looks nice, but I will never really understand.

DarkSunrise · 09-08-2014, 12:05 PM

I'm not really a wheel collector, but there was a point when I owned my 350z when I had too many wheels in my garage:

350z:
- 18" Falken Koblenz with RE040's [daily, from previous owner]
- stock 17" with Star Specs [track]

FR-S:
- 17" Wedssport TC105N with Nitto NT05 [track]
- 17" TSW Nurburgring with Sumitomo HTR-ZIII [daily/track]
- stock 17" with Turanzas [winter]

GTI
- 18" TSW Nurburgring with BFGoodrich SS AS [daily/track]
- stock 18" with PZero Nero AS [winter]

Getting rid of the 350z and those wheels made things more manageable. I'm currently thinking about selling the 17" Nurburgring/Sumitomo setup from the FR-S to further simplify things, although they might come in handy for rainy track days and daily driving.

Lol yeah to each their own , I guess

dradernh · 09-08-2014, 02:52 PM

Had these at the end of last season. Some more, too, but I don't really count them: a winter set for each vehicle, some onesies and twosies - they're everywhere! lol

Vten · 09-08-2014, 03:00 PM

dradernh · 09-08-2014, 05:34 PM

Man can't have too many wheels. Nor shoes, for that matter!
