that's not completely true. Well, i guess my isn't THAT low, but I can make it around Pmall no problem, just gotta know the routes to avoid, like that ramp to the underground parking when you turn in from kennedy.

You can't enter/exit from steeles if you want to goto the sunoco @ warden & steeles though, you need to take the long route in.

as for steering feeling sluggish, I wonder if ti's due to the extra 60mm total of rubber grip, or the heavier rims, or both...

The steering is abit heavy for me, but still feels pretty responsive when i bumped up to 255 up front.
i'll know more when i start pushing her in the corners, but ed made some comments yesterday about not being too overly aggressive with steering b'cuz of something or another. don't remember what he said, but if you want to chime in ed, go ahead with your thoughts on my suspension setup

i wouldn't goto that sunoco anyways since it's not a dual pump setup

there's one on victoria park just south of steeles (before cummer) and another one on victoria park south of finch (before sheppard). there's also a few on finch, one on finch and pharmacy? and another one on warden & sheppard i think.

i usually go out of my way to the one on sheppard off the 404. don't ask why, but for some reason my z always feels more peppy with their ultra 94. yes, this is most likely a placebo effect.

^^ also, if i'm not mistaken, the sunoco beside SBC is a dual-pump setup as well, but i haven't been there in a while so i could be wrong.

Nice to see that Alex's wheels got a good home
He put them up for sale less than a week after I ordered my GT-S wheels... otherwise I would seriously have considered getting these.

I ended up with the same spec's as these and had to roll my rear fenders as well -- so far only bottomed out once while cornering

They look great on a black Z and the colour seems to change in different lighting.
Congrats!
