don't do it... If you had a G, ok maybe, but 19s are tops for the Z

Not sure if anyone's into Euro cars as well, but this event is worth checking out:

Either way it's free, cool cars, music, and girls that are probably sick of beemers and are ready to get in a z

Steve, and anyone else that was wanting a homemade oil catch can. Wal Mart in my town stopped selling the filters I use... So the Kobalt is the best choice. Next time you're by there, you might want to pick one up.
Yeah Dave. The problem could be in the fact that you're only strong enough to torque them down to 20ft/lbs...
What have you been torqueing them to? For my wheels it was recommended at 90, but I went all the way to 110.
Anyone in MN know of any good driveway tar surfacers?

lol @ going to the gym. Somebody told me I take my wheels off to much. I torqued them down to 80 lbs.
Ben, Home Depot does that kind of stuff if you want or need to start building your credit. They do free in home visits and quotes. I'm thinking about having my garage floor redone.

Haha. Try torqueing them down to 100ft/lbs.
Thanks Dave! I'll be buying some stuff to redo the garage floor in a while.
As for the tar resurfacers... I was talking about the companies that come out and redo your entire driveway for you. Haha

Are you sure you have the proper lugs for you wheels? You might need to get a set of tuner lugs with a different taper

This weekend sounds good, I'll try to make it down and bring some buddies.
This Tuesday or Wednesday (tomorrow, etc) I might be down in Duluth to help my sister with some car troubles. If you're not busy or anything we could meet up for lunch or something and chill.
