What did you do with your Z today III

kenchan

18x8.5 and 18x9 are good for snow tires.


get 18x9 and 18x10's minimum. front 30-35mm offset, rear 15-20mm offset for stock height.

Pintsize725

Will that work with these tires?

Front Size

225/50ZR18XL 99Y B

Rear Size

245/45ZR18XL 100Y B

my rode mic is coming in tomorrow. i will give it a shot plugging it into the gopro if it improves anything as there is a guy on youtube that appears to like the rode + hero2 combo. i got the videomic pro which is a stereo shot-gun mic.

i made the mount for the recorder too just in case i can't isolate the pedal noise when my shoe contacts them by using the new cupholder mount coming soon. i can rotate the mount on the rear bar, which is nice.

i may mount an adapter and put camera #2 facing the rear. many options.

no, too narrow. areyou getting snow tires?

GaleForce

Sounds like an awesome set up.

Thanks for doing the ground work for me. You'll have it all figured out and I'll be good to go once I get my GoPro at fathers day

She's trying to keep tires.



I personally recommend just running out the new tires and going all out when those wear out though.

Going all out = more costs down the line too. I might as well jump up to 20's since the price of the tires will be less than 19's!

or just get spacers and lower your ride. that alone will make it look nicer. i will note that the car looks fine if you get the right offsets on stock ride height.

Red__Zed

By all out I just mean going wider...I like 9.5/10.5

kenchan

yah, dont bother with re-using stock tires. just get the right wheels and tires you really want pint, and keep them for a long time.

my G's wheel/tire is 1300 per corner. but ive had these wheels for like 7yrs now. tires have been re-wrapped a few times.

Pintsize725

I'm for that if it fits with the sizes mentioned above. This is what I prefer to buy my PSS at since they aren't too bad on the pocketbook.

Not stock, PSS but for the stock 18s.

lol, which app are you using? i use weatherbug and it's pretty accurate. better than weatherchannel and other apps ive tried. trick is to see radar in motion and barometric pressure.

kenchan
