I think I'm going to sell my Teins and go with H&Rs... I want to be a little lower, but I also want some stiffer shocks.

I wouldn't mind the Swifts... but I haven't seen many people use them. I want more low and I think the H&Rs will give it to meee.

Kaien... I want your wheels but I just can't swing it right now... :-/ I just bought new tires too.

I'm just gonna throw this out there....

I bought a set of Hankook v12 evos and they suck balls.

Straight line traction is good...(compared to my bald RE050As) but the sidewalls suck horse ****. I swear, I would take my bald REs over buying these things again. If you like the way your Z drives now... DONT use these tires.

I think Windex would agree with me. I hate them.

Yea straightline traction is awesome. but the car just doesn't feel as stable above 70mph. David says its sidewall flex. I've kinda gotten used to them. Oh the wet performances was great though kinda weird.

Actually yea, I am going to sell them... But Jimmy actually has dibs on them... he hit me up a few weeks ago asking about them.

I just ordered some goodies today so I'm totally excited about it!

I got..

Weds SA55M MGM 19x9.5+15 and 10.5+15
Weds Center caps
Project Kics R26 Neo Chrome lugs
BC Racing BR coilovers (230mm spring)

After a few days debating whether or not to stance this thing, I decided against it and went with a set of wheels that were lightweight and strong. I want to drive the car so putting lead wheels on it didn't seem like a smart idea.

Hopefully I should have all of these on soon, at some point next week.

Win!

I've heard nothing but good things about the Swifts.

If you're interested, I'm a Swift dealer and can usually get them for good prices. I got a few friends some prices for EVO and S2k.

Once you are finished with your setup, we should all have a get together! I think we are long over due for one.

I was thinking the same thing... the last event was what, the Z meet at le blanc?

Metz, whats up with that fence bro!? Let me know if you need a hand to come sweep up your saw dust filled garage!
