Thanks everyone!

It's got -2.9 degrees camber on the front, so yeah, the front tires are pretty flush at the top. You can see the camber in this pic pretty good....and the 315's are fairly flush..little bit of poky

I wish coilovers! It's lowered on West Coast Corvette lowering bolts. The fronts are raised 6 turns from the lowest, and the rears are raised 18-20 turns from the lowest

I must admit that the black wheels are growing on me, and on your Z they look great. It kinda says "Don't mess with me folks".

Anyway, I thought I would share some photo's. I know black-on-black is a love it or hate it affair around here.....so PLEASE, keep your happy thoughts to yourself if you don't like it























And for kicks....my track set-up, which is another set of 18x10.5 Speedlines that I got from House Of Wheels a couple of months back. Tires are Nitto NT01 315/30/18's





Thanks for looking.....


Hi, I had a couple questions regarding the awesome setup you have above. I never thought the 18x10.5 would fit in the front. Is there a special offset for the front or are they the stock offset from the rear? I also have the DRM Brake duct kit installed with spindle ducts. Do the front 275's rub at all?? 315's?? Do the 315's rub in the back in the wheel well / rear duct? I'm assuming the fronts only rub when you go lock to lock. Do you have any TC/AH problems? Any problems in comp mode on the track? If you could please help me out, I would really appreciate it. Again nice setup

Mike
