The look SWEET. I was so nervous that they would stick out of the fenders like some car driving through East L.A. It really
looks perfect. I didn't test out the handling yet cuz the tires are new. With the Eibach/tok combo the car looks super.

Observations:
I have a light vib problem at like 75....that I think dissapeared by 80.

I can tell that the tires pull at slow speeds with unever road. That something that just happens with low profile tires.

The steering is heavier....but in a good way.

The car feels NO slower now then before. In fact, the overall diameter is slightly less than the stock setup. I was driving
around on the way home with all 4 old rims/tires in the car and she felt fine. I can't wait to drive it without extra 120 or so
pounds.

Thats all for now.

Sorry. No digicam. I'm going to the toronto meet on Sunday and I'm sure someone will have one there. Check the board Sunday night.

They are from the z32(90-96). 16x7.5..pretty wide. They even have the little z center caps and chrome valve stems.

Its on Sunday at Noon. Its really in Mississauga at the place across the street from Playdium?. Its on Hurontario street. I'm comming from Buffalo. All I know is that I'm taking the QEW to the 403East and getting off at Hurontario. Its right down the street from the 403.
