Don't worry Chris, everyone on this board is all boring and stuffy and likes autoX and crap. I just ignore them. Btw, were you actually able to find normal looking rear overs? Or are those things just new metal from another Z? Nice wheels as well, looks fantastic.

Did OP ever figure this out? If all else fails pull them all off the car, set 0 preload. Measure everything. Reinstall.

It's really easy to mess these things up while your installing them and screwing with the ride height. Best to just start over rather then chasing ghosts.

Man, reading this thread makes me cringe. Chris is such a misinformed snowflake.
