Z17 Wheel Upgrade

[madmurph]

I'm having difficulty in finding out what the wheel upgrade from the standard gray painted wheels is on the Z17. Some dealers say the upgrade is to the chrome wheels like what is standard on the Z18. Others say it is an aluminum wheel. I cannot find any photos and dealers are unable to provide any. There is nothing in the Nitro catalog either. If somebody ACTUALLY HAS the upgrade on the Z17, can you please tell me what they are and possibly post a photo. The Z17 upgrade is supposedly different from the upgrade on the other models. Thanks in advance.

I actually just called Corporate on this very issue this past Friday. When I asked the question, I was informed that the upgraded wheels would be the nice aluminum wheels with the Nitro markings. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info Craig. I think I was finally able to find a photo as well. They look pretty nice.

Can you get me the link of the wheels for a pic. Just got a Z17. Thanks.

Andrew, I'll have to see if I can find it again. Standby...........

Sorry Andrew, I can't locate the photo again.

I’m looking to upgrade my wheels and tires on the Z17. I would like to go up to a 14 or even 15 wheel. Anyone do this yet? I could just order wheels to for the 185/80R13 that come on it, but I want better tires and nice looking wheels.

A local cal wheel store said I could use a 205/60R15 tire, but am skepticle. Thoughts?

Thank you. Even my same color boat!

I assume those are 13” wheels, the same as the other regular stock.

I found these wheels online for $75 each. I’m going to buy and replace the stock wheels.

Andrew, I sent you a P.M.
