Yes the tires did come staggered on thosemodels, I was merely going to alter the setup...the tires were **** anyways...I think I answered my own ? tho...thanks guys...I hope this rain is bad, I need this salt to be gone to pull out the Z.

Update: The audi 1.8t is a great little car on many dd levels...but I need my Z out...audi's gutless but comfortable, safe and endearing

lol @ Audi comfort.

I was shopping last night for suspension parts..... for my minivan. I need new endlinks, bushings, control arms, and maybe spring insulators. guh....

I'm not bringing the Z out any time soon. There's still too much crap on the roads like sand and rocks and nasty potholes.

Anyone for this Saturday and the car show?

wow Dave sounds like a nice project, +1 on taking the Z out, it's still way to early to even be thinkin of takin the Z out. Maybe at the earliest next weekend might be better but for sure not this weekend.

You know I'm already down for the car show. for those that dont want to drive there and pay the full parking price me and Dave are going to take my truck up there and split the cost on parking so if anyone wants to meet up at Dave's being that pretty much everyone knows where that is I have room for 2 more people in my truck if it's going to be me, Dave and his son.

well that time of year again, time to get new tires for the Z having trouble deciding between the bf goodwrich KDW2 http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....ce+T%2FA+KDW+2

the Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....za+RE760+Sport

or the Potenza RE050A Pole Position http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....+Pole+Position

or going back to my cheap tires I had last time the general exclaim uhp, fronts look new but rears are a different story

I liked the KDW2 better then the RE050A. They felt like they had better traction and didnt wear as fast.

thanks for the heads up never actually new anyone who had the RE050A other than what I read from their point of view. I'm liking the KDW2's too, I want to switch from the general exclaim UHP's tho they're an awesome tire for the price and even more so when it comes to wet traction but as far as hitting the twisties it definetly had the marshmellow feel if you know what I mean

Hey Exotic_350z saw your other post in the north central thread. Hopefully you can make it to one of our meets/gatherings this summer if you come back to MN this year. What's your real name? Cause i'm not comfortable calling another guy exotic Dont know if you've talked to Ben, AKA Spork he is also stationed in Japan tho he is at Kadena Air Base I believe on a smaller Island that makes up Japan.

Greg, I had the BFG and liked them but thought they wore out faster than normal. Plus, they're not good in wet weather. I think mine lasted 15k miles. I like the Sumitomo's I have on the rears now.

Alex, you sold both seats?

BTW, looks like Travis is buying the whole body kit. Yay! I was getting so many pm's and emails from people about shipping and stuff.

sportbiketed

iTrader: (11)

I don't know. What time does it open? I'll have to look at those coupons. I'm going out tonight, so I might want to sleep in.
