Doing well so far! Outside of the one issue I had after getting the car lowered....there are two little plastic tabs on the top of the fender and I believe Altered said they lowered my Z by about 2 inches (they can verify that if they pop back in this thread)....anywho, due to the lowering and the plastic tabs they were rubbing the front tires. The rear tires were and are fine.

Altered rolled the fenders up just slightly and since that time....no more rubbing!

They love to pickup pebbles after driving around for awhile and some of the sounds those pebbles make while hitting up inside the wheel well are just insane! I love my aggressive look....I love my tires.....and I love my rims! Expensive investment but don't regret it at all!

Yes, just the fronts.....the rears have had no issues. I thought I had kept photos of the rubbing but it looks like I've deleted them. It was maybe an inch in length and it was only in certain spots....where the car had hit a bump and pushed the plastic tabs against the tires. I was told it was minimal at best but was also told I needed to fix the issue and not let it "fix itself" as I had originally thought of doing (letting the tires contine to rub until the plastic just got rubbed down).

As of right now, everything seems just fine....

....you'll love the look, I promise!

All the money you dropped on your Z and still got the dealer plate frame?

Just ball-bustin, the lights look good.
