cygnusx1 Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 I finally installed the 16x8 0-offset wheels tonight. I have 225/50-16 BFG Comp T/A KD's on them. For fitment questions, the suspension is stock spring pans with 1" height reduction Tokico springs and camber bushings up front. The tires don't rub at all. I suspect that if I had alot of weight in the car and I hit a dip, they might rub the fender lip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt K Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Looks good! Those wheels are really starting to grow on me...I'm holding out for Konig Rewind 16x8's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavyZ Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 What everyone said--they look great on the car, even better than the minilites. I like the 16" x 8" size since they go perfectly with the car. These are a bit wider than your old ones, so hopefully the car will handle a bit better to boot. Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeusEx Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Can i see a side shot of the wheels? nice and close? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted March 30, 2007 Author Share Posted March 30, 2007 I'll try to get a good close up side shot tonight. I drove the car to work today which is a 40 mile twisty backroad commute. There is one road that is similar to the tail of the dragon except it's only about 4 miles long. I think that on every curve I said, out loud, "Holy F%^#". I thought it handled well before. Now it is just plain insane. It has to be doing 1g easily. Not a squeel from the tires and it just wants more and more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparks280zt Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Looks just like the MSA urethane spoiler for the 280z's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted March 30, 2007 Author Share Posted March 30, 2007 Yup it's the MSA one but I got it long before MSA. I believe the company I got it from was "Impact Parts" in NY about 15 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madkaw Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 more pics please, can't get enough. I wonder if you could measure clearance on the struts too??. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Clearance huh? Well I can tell you that the front rims have about 1/8" clearance to the spring pan. Not much. The rears have more clearance but not sure exactly how much. I am also running Arizona Z car 12.2" brake kit front and rear. I'll get some more pics today.
