i love the pics

 

I like those Axis wheels, do you have more info on them? What sizes and offsets are they? And what size tires do you run on them? TIA

 

Thanks everybody. Kognition has some video of riding passenger in my car in the rain, but its slow driving since 488whp+RWD+Rain = No fun.

Alberto - The Axis setups are actually owned by Scott (WA2GOOD) so I dont know the offsets, but I know they are 18"x 9.5" F, 18"x 10.5" rear, the exact sizes and offsets as the ones James Chen runs on his yellow Axis 350Z. For the tire sizes we ran a 285 in front and 295 in the back and for modified class we ran a 275 in front and 315 in the back which is due to availability.

 

Thanks again Mikey for the co-piloting of your Z, I am still so relieved that I am finally getting that thing sorted out and makeing it "almost" as fast as it should be. Can't wait for Mark and I to unlock even more potiential in that thing in the next couple of months....

Alberto,--- the Axis Reverbs are a 18x9.5" front with a 22 offset and a 18x10.5" rear with a 30 offset. They do not yet come in the flat black (entire wheel) powdercoating, but I think they should, hint, hint...Mr Chen

Links on the wheels for you....

I still would like to thank Megan Racing products, Axis Wheels, Jim Wolf Technology, Kognition Design, Pro Gear, Powder One, and Mark Brent (master mechanic and tuner) for all their help, and most of all Mike Bonanni (350ZNV) for the biggest help of all, M.B., your still are one of the coolest and nicest guys I have met in a long time, and I think we make a pretty good team.

 

Thanks Scott. I too am anxious to get the car back down to you and the mad scientist Mr. Brent.

 

Thanks for the info guys, I have been looking at VRT's old posts when they had a white G running Enkei Nt03+M's with 315's in the rear I just order some for myself, the +30 offset was perfect in the rear for the combo of looks + clearance.

 

Yep, just make sure its a 315/30/18 and nothing else. Nittos are actually a 323 when you measure it and rub on the Zs.

 

315/30 thanks for the info What Nittos did you run? I havent looked at what is offered in those sizes yet, Im looking for a summer compound to do the akarally in and when I want to mess around on the street.

edit-btw what froint lip is that on your car at the track day? Waayyy low, looks great in this pic

 

Thanks man. I didn't run the Nittos because they were too wide for the 9.5" Nismos. I know that the Pirelli P-Zero Corsas and Michellin Pilot Sport Cups are the best R-Compounds that come in the 315/30/18.

The front lip is actually the Kognition Design front lip/splitter. There is a thread about it in the track/autocross section. Just search for threads started by the username kognition. Its not that low, but I do love that picture. Probably just the right angle in the photo, but its sick. It sits probably just as low or maybe a tad lower than a C-West N1 front bumper.

 

+1 for the pics!

 

Whens the next race?
