If anybody has any wheels for the Z that will fit over the Brembos just lying around, I would like to ask if I could borrow them for a bit. They need to have tires on them too. I have to send one of my wheels back to Wheels Next for exchange. For anybody who was at the dyno day and remembers my wheel bieng lopsided causing the car to jump all around, thats why I am sending it back. Anyways. I have to ship it to Florida and then have a new one shipped back to me. Then I have to get the tire mounted again. So if anybody can help me, let me know. Thanks.

 

Ok, new delima with this. I have my car entered in the Extreme Autofest Car Show on the 23rd of this month. This is not going to be enough time to get my wheel sent out and back I don't think. So I will pay $50 for someone to let me use their aftermarket wheels for the show. Preferably gunmetal or black wheels 19" or bigger, but I am pretty desperate at this point.

 

Damn dude.. If I had some... I would, hopefully you'll work something out!

 

We could all pitch in and each give you a "donut"! That would be stylin'.

 

lol I think there are different donuts for the track model though.

 

I'm sure you already talked to him about it, but Rich seems like the obvious solution.

 

No he has a sale pending for his wheels so those are out of the question, unless his deal falls through.

 

yo you can use mine, i dont really care, you are just going to have to go to shop with me to swap them out. it is in the shop. call me

 

their may be a possibility that it will be out of the shop by the 23.

 

Werd. Thanks Rich.

 

Ok well, I am going to borrow my dad's truck while the Z is down with the wheel issue, so now all I need is someone that will let me use their wheels for the show on the 23rd if Rich's car is out of the shop by then.

 

Why not just go bombing around in the Chevelle?

 

No air conditioning and 9mpg highway lol. I am going to have my dad's truck anyway when I tow the Z to the AutoX. He has an un-necessary amount of cars, so he doesn't mind. He never drives the truck anyways, he just bought it because he could write the whole thing off on his taxes as a work truck. Why give the govt. $55,000 when you can have a nice F-150 instead?

 

^^^ EXACTLY!! Thats How its done! lol

 

I can give you a big "maybe", cause I'll probably be out of town until next Sunday w/out the Z anyway. I'm leaving Tuesday, I'll let you know by Monday. The maybe is that I might take the Z, might not.
They're not too shabby, 245f/275r, 18's. Don't know if they'll fit over the brembos: Privat Fahren is the brand and style, I think they're both 40mm offset, also have rear wheel spacers 3/4".

 

Thanks Rob. If they don't fit over the Brembos I have that adapter that I use for the front wheels I have on there now.

 

I'm leaving town tomorrow, so if you want to do this tonight is the night.

 

I think I am going to go ahead and skip the car show. There is a good possibility that my friend's funeral will be that day. Thanks anyway though.
