Steeda Q525 with New Steeda Wheels!
This is Steeda's Q525 with their brand-new 18 x 9.5" Pentar 1 wheel in satin finish (also available in black and chrome) and their Competition Front Fascia, which is functional with openings for brake ducting and driving lights.

The 20" wheels are only one off forged prototypes. I already emailed Steeda and asked to place a deposit on it and they said no. They said that they are looking at possibly making them in a low pressure cast version in the future but that is at least 3-4 months away. The answer was very iffy so I don't think they'll be making those anytime soon. I really liked them though. I would buy them in a heartbeat if they were reasonably priced. Of course, there are other similar wheels out there that I'll probably go with like these:

Sorry Gus......my mistake........I meant to say low pressure cast not gravity cast. I'll edit and change that so no one gets mistaken on that. Thanks again!
By the way.....that pic is not the 20" prototypes. Those are the new Pentar wheels in 18"

My friend has a set of Forged 18x9.5" wheels for his 350z which weigh 19lbs each.
I would have gladly paid double for a set of lightweight forged wheels from Steeda.
I'm still waiting for Steeda to come out with the Carbon Fiber Splitter (Since October)
Ps. The $629.00 Steeda cowl induction hood interferes with the Steeda Billet Strut Tower Brace

I just ordered a set of the new Steeda Pentar wheels. My wife can't stand the black Sport Max wheels that I got so we made some compromises and I agreed to sell them. I'm not happy about the deal because I think black wheels agains sonic blue looks mean. Anyway, the Steeda ones should look good and I will post pics when I get them on.
If anyone wants my Sport Max wheels, I'm selling them for $850 shipped. They only have about 250 miles on them and they are flawless. I figure that I have to take a little hit on them just because the are "used" now.
They are 18x8.5 in front and 18x9.5 in back. They are staggered with nice big chrome lip.
Here are pics
