Picked up set 19" rays set tires and rims from forum member today at great price. Dropped off rear at Walmart for new Michelin Pilot 275/35zr/19 tires which will be here tomorrow. Install the 2 front ones which have good tread this afternoon on the z.

The new ps4s? I have them. Great tire.

tag/ins/emissions
 

The regular routine, but with a few twists this year.

Atlanta, as a city with bad air pollution, requires that vehicles pass emissions to be registered/legal in the counties that make up the metro area.

So the 2016 370z falls under the new car three year exclusion, no problem there. I have a 1995 C1500 I bought from my little brother and I had a devil of a time finding a place that still does tailpipe emissions (newer cars use the OBD2 port). I went to four places including AAA and either their machine was down or they don't do emissions anymore. So it's basically noon when I get emissions in hand.

So the tag/registration office was bonkers. I've been in the same place for 18 years and it is not usually a problem. I spent 90 minutes there, including about 30 after the charged my card the wrong amount and had to get higher up permissions to revise the charge.

However, I'm done for another year (still the house note to pay) and after next year the truck will be an antique and not require emissions testing.

For any Z brothers driving in the south, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Florida and South Carolina are running "Operation Southern Shield" through the 22nd, emphasizing speeding tickets. Don't be "that guy".

I hope this finds you well

Thanks for props everyone. Just mounted the front set. The rears will come in tomorrow, Walmart has the rims already and will pick them up to get mounted Wednesday. Price was about same everywhere and Walmart was $2 cheaper and only charge $10 for road hazard protection. Love that Cover All wheel dressing spray.

:tiphat: :driving:

They are A/S3s

I'm a big fan of VRT on the wheels - not too much gloss and good life plus very little product is needed so no sling :tup:

Yes I believe they are the A/S3 but don’t have papers w me

took, what felt like a couple lbs off the wheels! Mutekis to these new Work Lugs

My dad got them on his is350. Really good tire. Will see how the cooler temps / transition of seasons go.

I drove them for the past year (not that Austin winters are anything remotely like Toronto). Great tires. Plus, I think they are made of iron.

What did I do with my Z today?...

I flashed a new tune on it thanks to Seb @ Specialty Z, then promptly went out for a test drive, and laughed almost the entire time as I continually scared and shocked fellow drivers on the road with many pops, crackles and big bangs, and large balls of flames! :driving::tup::happydance:

Almost forgot, also going out tonight to pick up a set of slightly used BC coilovers (BR series) for a great price. Gonna finally get this car sitting and riding just the way I want it to.

F!@kinf kid! :shakes head:





:rofl2: :tup:

Damn skippy! :tiphat::iagree:


Just picked up the coilovers as well. They look pretty good! I can't wait to install them.

Oh, and also damn near got rearended on the way home. Nearly crapped my pants.

Drove by Wally World to pick up new tires mounted on the rims but, have not come in yet. They were due yesterday but looked up FedEx tracking and show delivery tomorrow Thursday. Hope to get them tomorrow or again, will have to wait another day till Friday.

You're a brave man for letting Walmart touch your wheels. Good luck!
