Avoid the temptation to try and set it to the highest setting, set it conservative and see what happens. Wings are a balancing act of high speed corner performance vs straight away performance.

I know quite a few people that successfully run the APR wings, but I've also seen one catastrophically fail at 150 mph in a high HP car. With the Z's limited HP you'll be fine.
Thanks for looking out. Rep to yea. I have already talked to Mike about it and where to set it. He has his set to the lowest also.
