1. They're 19's.
2. Rears are 9.5, Fronts are 8.5
3. I didn't have to lower the car. It was personal taste. I think it looks tons better lowered compared to the Z's I have seen with wheels and stock suspension.
4. What overlays would you like more information on?

StudyB,

Appreciate the answers. The reason I ask if it was lowered, b/c I read that some people have lowered with Milanos & some have not. IMHO I think your set-up is dead on! Best SB Z I've seen clean in quite some time!

Did you put the overlays on your self? Does it come pre-cut or will someone have to apply them for you? Plus how dark is the tint. Is it a film or is it a plastic cover? You know how GA is here with their new tint laws!

I hate the wheels. ( But you know I'm kidding SB )....Beautiful car man, and some nice photography as well. The Milanos are a classic wheel.

I had overlays at one point in time. Then I got the taillights done by a guy in Texas. PM me if you want his information.

The overlays I used were from lamin-x.com. They were pre-cut and were very thick overlays. Being so thick made them a lot easier to apply than many others overlays that I've seen. It's a very DIY job and I did them in 15-30 minutes. Just make sure you have patience and try to get all the bubbles out you can. The little bubbles will bake out in the sun.

Cool. I just checked out their website. Did you just get the "Tailights" kit or do I need the F&R Turn singals kit as well?

I did the F&R turn signals kit. It covers the front yellow reflectors. I will say that I had a problem with those though. They left a little slice of that yellow uncovered and it became extremely noticable.

I was wondering if those we the smoke reflectors or the overlay tint. I'll probably get some smoke reflectors & do the rear ones with the tint.

Thanks for the feedback. Again, great looking car!

"3. I didn't have to lower the car. It was personal taste. I think it looks tons better lowered compared to the Z's I have seen with wheels and stock suspension"

SB, I see that you have Eibach springs. I'm a newbie & I hope you don't mind all the questions, but dont these springs lower the car? I guess I'm a bit confused by the above statement that you didnt have to lower the car.

Again, sorry for all the questions, but I'm still learning from everyones knowledge here. Appreciate your help!

I think you're reading it wrong....Try this...

3. I didn't have to lower the car, but I did because that's my personal taste.

Yes, the Eibachs lower the car by .8" in the front and 1.2" in the rear. Most people are still able to align after this, but I've heard of a few that can't. If you're one of the unlucky ones, you need to be prepared to spend the $400 on a camber kit to make the car not eat tires.
