not to toot my own horn, but since you brought it up, yes, as a matter of fact my IQ does qualify as borderline genious.

yes to both. nobody touches my baby but me.


and i wasnt trying to be an ***, i'm just concerned about the decline of the english language. i apologize if you took it the wrong way. i did not mean to offend, just educate. believe it or not, some people do NOT know the difference between rims and wheels. that, and i tend to be a rather sarcastic person. please dont take anything i say too personally. i didnt mean to single you out, yours just happend to be the post that tweaked my grammar alarm. i dont want to make enemies over something stupid like this, so i hope you accept my apology.

shut up and paint a P-Way joe.

 

accepted and i apologize for the verbal attack, sometimes people are just out to pick at others on forums and i guess this wasnt one of those times.

 

its all good. i dont think they would have made me a Mod if i was one of those people who rips on others just for sport.

 

yes very true. now that thats that, im am looking for some temp WHEELS 17's or 18's if anyone has some old ones lying around, otherwise its ebay time.

 

Here is a link to a post, with links to 2 posts, full of pix of my z with 17 inch "wheels" and tires mounted ;~)

maybe you kids should read up on the ramifications of putting such large wheels and tires on to your vehicle. Have a gander at my thread, Suspension 101.

 

Okay...that write up sure helps me...if I am a drift racer and autocrosser. I think that most of people are not racing thier car s on a regular basis but are simply trying to get a look on their cars so I don't get the total point but part of me agree's with that write up at the same time. Stock springs and suspension are likely not going to benefit from a set of large wheels. However, if you upgrade these components at the same time to an adjustable suspension system it is perfectly viable to use larger wheels. Not bike tires but wider and larger wheels to compensate the loss from a smaller wheel used with the car originally. As well most of these 1990-96 300zx cars are showing serious wear in the suspension and the upgrade is good timing as is a new set of wheels. Get rid of the sag, stiffen the suspension and make it adjustable so you can set it up the way you need to. If you go to a 17 or bigger, simply go wider if you can. My .o2
