and what 3 of them so far look like. Its an orange pearl, and looks more red in the photo, but it matches my orange vinyl almost perfectly.

Looks good. What are the wheel specs?

Mike 03-30-2011 09:54 PM

18x10 +34. 15mm spacers required for rears, but I like square and rotating them.

Yikes! That's bright! Post pics when on the car.

sTeadFasT96 03-30-2011 11:55 PM

I like them! When you ordered the wheels did you choose just a basic finish?

SPOHN 03-31-2011 07:21 PM

Put them on your wife's car.

m4a1mustang 03-31-2011 07:33 PM

Looks great in sunlight, Mike! :tup:

shaun66 03-31-2011 09:48 PM

I chose matte black. Was going to get them raw, but they said it would take longer

Gotcha. Didn't think they would offer them raw.

Z1804 03-31-2011 10:53 PM

Those look GREAT Mike! Wanna see them in person.

docaam 04-01-2011 01:21 AM

thats a wild ans sick combo, subscribing for installed pictures

Boost_lee 04-01-2011 04:06 AM

mount them already Mike!

dAvenue 04-01-2011 04:05 PM

Great choice of wheel. I am looking forward to seeing them on your Z. I have a feeling they are going to look pretty sick.

brian0128 04-03-2011 11:27 AM

It looks great Mike! What tires are you going to run and in what size?

Mike 04-03-2011 12:22 PM

Probably yoko ad08s in 295 all around. Less expensive and almost as good as r compounds. Good enough at least for me to justify the cost savings. Every weekend at the track costs at least 1000 with brakes, tires, gas, registration and hotel

Red__Zed 04-03-2011 12:24 PM

^ good call. I'm super excited to see these mounted.

Mike 04-03-2011 08:48 PM

I've got a track event the weekend of the 15th. I'm trying to wear down my 19" AD08s, so I will be running them and they are currently on the car, plus I still have one more wheel to coat, so sometime late in the month they might go on.

On a side note, I have about 8 track days and at least 4000 street miles on these AD-08s and they just don't want to wear down. I'm guessing I can get 3 years of track days out of a set with no street driving.

SeeyaBud86 04-03-2011 09:25 PM

Get these mounted!! I love the color. Its very different man!

Mike 04-22-2011 04:55 PM

got them mounted, they look even better with tires. As soon as I get some parts back from the bodyshop and put the akebonos back on, I'll have pics. Hopefully within the week.
