[Z06] Wide Body Z06 Thanks SS-Vette [pics+video]
#23
Im a lil confused here... So u are sayin that there isnt any traction issues with the kit because the wheels sit farther apart? I dont see how having the kit unless i was gonna run a true 375 or 395 width tire out back. Even the pirlleli 375 aint much wider than a standart 345... Wouldnt this totally affect handling of the z since u are moving the tires that much outward? Just a few questions not my cup of tea but defenetly something different..

I think it kinda ruins the lines of the rear quarters. I'm with Dark Overlord, it reminds me of a dually. That said, if you like it that's all that matters.

A perfect quote to portray the ugly American stereotype! I've travelled to Dubai several times on business and there is no apparent anti-American sentiment. They rely largely on trade, commerce, and tourism for their income (not oil) so it's in their best interest to have a good relationship with the U.S., and they do. Besides, Mfahhad could of spent his money on any car, and he chose not only to buy a Z06 but to participate on this forum... I don't think that shows an "America sucks" attitude. Sorry to get so far off the topic of the thread but it needed to be said.

I have seem more protests in the US than in Dubai. You are free to post such remarks, but since they are of no benefit to any corvette owner, better find the right forum and post all you want.

Your car sounds great. I always see you post that it's just a custom setup. Are you willing to share any more info on it? Also, the LED taillights look great. +1 on who makes them/where to get them...?

Not a fan... Looks like you are trying too hard to stand out... If you are running spacers, then it is unsafe as well... Just my my 2 cents; its your money...

Is it true that people in Mississippi can't speak proper English, don't receive education past the third grade, live in trailer parks, cruise family reunions for dates, hate black people, buy 250k houses on 40k a year and are thus responsible for the credit crisis, and can't beat a bunch of South Carolina ***** in football?
And he's not even from Dubai. He's from Riyadh. KSA and the UAE are two different countries. Dubai is about 500 miles away from Riyadh. Stop talking, you're making America look bad.

Yes, all you said about Mississippi is true.
I like the wide body rear, but I think you should modify the front as well to balance it off.

I'm waiting for someone to do a wide body with the ALMS paint scheme, minus the decals.
Bet you that would be sick looking. AJ's is LMB and it looks like it should be in the series as well

thank you guys for the great comments glad some of you loved it
yeah its a 4" spacer for now looking for wheels to fill my requirements
don
my plesure ,, thank you for the good craftsmanship
i have no idea how to explain that my guess its heaver and if it rolls in straight line not side ways more is better . that's my guess i might be wrong
i bought them from ebay $279
http://stores.shop.ebay.com/SABERSPO...34Q2ec0Q2em322
he has them in many colors
im sure there is a vendor here who has them as well
although im from Saudi i still believe the media is really messing our image up
thanks for the open mind thinking
im also traveling to the U.S in October to pick up a TT Z06 hopefully
i agree lets all keep are eye away from governments here
the exhaust is custom
al yousef has the diagram witch he gave to the shop in dubai
i dont have it but you can see him here
http://www.youtube.com/user/alyousuf
he also has a couple of videos of the exhaust
i agree
unsafe with the spacers but i hate 21" rims i hope i can find 18 that wide so i have more traction
Nobody needs to explain how cultures are
some are bad and some are good even here in Saudi you find a handful of uneducated ignorant racist people
i dont judge some one as a country or race or culture a bad person is a bad person its not what color passport he has
thank you for the great comment though
its not moded yet i orderd an LSX and a turbo kit from a vendor but he didn't deliver yet

I agree. How are you getting better traction from a dead or from a roll? If you are running giant spacers, you may have increased the roll stability by setting your rear tires that much farther apart than stock, but other than that, I don't see how traction would be improved.

While we're being ignorantly offensive......
