    Your wheel setup has always been my favorite, just awesome. Once I wear thee new tires out I'll jump on the 285+ bandwagon. I may end up selling the 235's up front once I see what they look like and how much clearance I've got. I've got my H&R spacers gettting machines as we speak (bore diameter was too small from another car). I have two sets, one is 25mm and another is getting shaved down to 18mm just in case. Gonna be sweeeet...

            is that a cobra wheel? i plan on sticking 315's on the rear of my z someday , but they will be street tires. iv'e got a couple of questions ....

            how wide is that wheel steve?

            does anybody have an idea of offsets in 17" and 18" diameters that will work? for an 11inch rear that is ...

            all of this stuff confuses me , and i'd hate to have to pay somebody at a wheel shop to find this stuff out .

            finding cheap 11 inch wide wheels is hard ,10 inch and some 10.5 can be had but i want an 11 inch ! :twisted:

            p.s. this type of info should be added to az-zbums list (his only goes up to 10 inches)

              That thing is massive. I love the look of massive tires on a car. Even if it may slow the car down. I can't wait to see what those 315s look like on the car!!!

                Yes its a Cobra Wheel its 17x10.5" with a +27mm Offset it is a direct fit (no spacers/adaptors or longer studs needed). they do stick out past the fenders a few mm or so but thats nothing that rolling the fenders wont cure. And im not worried about them slowing me down I need the biggest contact patch I can get :twisted:

                  I agree with that contact patch issue. That's what I'm after. I got 285s again for my new wheels just to make sure everything fits with no issues & hopefully I can run 295s the next time I get tires. I don't want to roll my fenders. I just got 10s with a +30 offset.

                      Very nice! That shot is almost calendar worthy!!! What profile tires are you using (30/35)?

                      Although the splash guards seem insignificant now, the tail lights look really good on that white Z!

                        They look great. Camber looks good too, but that's cuz the car isn't lowered much by the amount of rear wheel gap it has. Course if you lower it tires would rub no doubt. Clear/white lens on the bottom half of the tail lights looks good too. How/where'd you get those?
