Mik - don't be pickin on me, i'm older than you and i'll beat you with my cane. And you're the tire guy, you should know why the the guy who balanced them did the markings (i didn't know either).
So, for punishment, I'm going to feed your sick obsession!
I took another picture of the four virgins Do with it what you will
I put the "FRONT" on there again so you're not looking at it from the rear

I've heard CK's theory on the weights and all that but in reality, even with 1/2# on the fronts of my old replicas, no diff. If the wheels are balanced properly, this should be a moot point but maybe...
...my feeble old hands just couldn't feel anything.
And with square set, what happens when you rotate? Hunh? Hunh? Heh heh.

1st post! Hey everybody! Just picked up my 1st Z a couple of weeks ago. Extremely clean '07 Enthusiast 6 spd, 53k orig miles. 2 owner car, no accidents. Came with aftermarket sway bars and springs, leaving the car 1/2" lower than stock.
So far all I've done is add "switchback" lights to the front reflector area. Not going to go nuts in mods. lol.
Other than that, I say good morning to it as I make my daily 10 minute commute to work. What a fun car!

Ordered a dash kit for a double din I picked up at Christmas. I'll install it this weekend. The radio will be the only mod I have aside from LED interior & license plate lights, K&N drop-ins, and an S2000 antenna I *traded* for (I was working at a dealership at the time, and put my antenna on the S2000 after I took its antenna. If you have an S2000 with a stupid long antenna, I apologize ).
Coming from an older 3 series BMW that I did a ton of stuff with, I'm just happy with the Z not giving me any issues in the 4 years I've had it lol.

I used a hood rod and a mallet to get the cylinders out... I was getting impatient and frustrated...
I also spent a good hour trying to figure out how I could safely raise my car off the ground enough to hang out underneath for a long period of time.. The fact that the entire side comes up makes life a little difficult.

Stopped home with my work truck and used the muscle impact to get the last 4 flywheel bolts off... Stupid torx heads guess im lucky I didn't break the heads off those.
