Nah XXR had a huge backorder on all their 2010 wheels. If I would of ordered the rears first then it probably wouldnt be taking so long maybe. I think all the zilvia and Z guys been ordering up the 10's all around
my online status says 1-2 weeks. what makes the wait even better, I'll be on coilovers so it'll look extra better

I got the Ksport coilovers. I cant wait to put them on. maybe i can find another distributer that might have the rims in stock and just roll from there. I doubt it though since they are backordered

Good news and sorta bad-good news. The bad-good news is that the status on the rims remain. The good news is that my replacement struts for my coilovers came in today! So saturday or sunday night I should have some rollong shots with those on. We are having a photoshoot at our nissan meet

Wassup. Well I had a problem 3 weeks ago. They confirmed my payment feb 22, but I guess they didn't take the money because they were backordered. So comes april I called to ask and I find this out and I got bumped. So I'm supposed to order one this friday and order another next friday. Other than that I was supposed to have them. But I do have my coilovers on now

Yea I'm impatient too. I felt like I did 3 years ago when I got the frankencar rip. I still haven't seen that money. Anyway I'mgoing to call today to see if its in stock, then I'm gonna order one this weekend and the other next friday. There is a 370z out here that comes to the rice killer meets (ricekiller.com) and he has them. 20x10f and 20x10.5r. I wish we can rock 10s up front. That x10 on the lip looks clean as hell!

Update w/pics
So I got the rears in Saturday FINALLY! The company charged my card double over the weekend for some reason but i got that straight, I just bought the 2 tires today. And Sunday a friend did some custom work to the wheels before I put them on. We took all the rivets off of the wheels (80 total) and painted them gloss black including the center caps. I will be getting them mounted wednesday about 7pm at NTB. Heres some teaser pics Before and After the painted rivets>>>>

The ride is good. Same as if they were same size all around. I was rubbing with the 245s in the back cuz the damn shop didn't want to put a 225 on the 10 and didn't have a 235. But I went and got 235-40 which is in the pic u s
ee. It looks good. But I got the fenders rolled also. Like I said I wanna go lower in the rear but I have to get that stupid rear beam aligned. I have more poke on one side hah

les schwab, and discount tire ant roughly $80 per tire (for their budget tire), and the total cost after... if there is any way to save money? I have heard... that you can save money on tires online, however after...probably need to purchase some sort of wheel balancing machine
