none are going to look like that unless they stick out the side of the body.

Thats a pretty drastic offset, as it looks like the 350Z's fenders have been widend quite a bit.

So not a very realistic idea

well, i suppose there might be a wheel that looks like that, but the rims that have that deep, far in look are usually offset far.

like with the last set of wheels we bought for one of out Roadrunners, the week is very deep, but thats just because we have so much room in the fender, you can tuck a 12 inch wide tire in there by just changing offsets.

it's probably gonna be 0-one digit chance of finding a wheel that looks 'sucked in' on mini

well

here is what I see as 'sucked-in' wheel for mini

Yeah, it's gonna be tough to get an effect like that. Real slim to none chance. But, for what it's worth, those wheels look like Volk LE37T's Awesome performance wheel....look incredible on the M3. The M3 is a car where you get the sucked in look
