Thanks for the info on the 12V guys; I didn't realize the plugs were split. I tried to edit my post but can't quite figure out how. It looks like the 06s have two plugs too.
In any case, I looked through the documentation (odd, I never do that) and I noticed some references to not running the 12V plugs when the A/C is on ... did I misread something or does it actually mean that?

i think it will look fine. that how my C6 came 18/19 staggered, except it is running 285's in the rears
to me i think it will give the Z an aggressive stance. and set apart the higher end models like that should have in the first place
im just curious to see what they will actually look like!

As for the stearing, that's a plus, I think the z's now are tough to stear, could be smoother and easier...
