Volk GTC's are now mounted!
I gota say that the 19's look incredible on the Z!
I was a little worried that they would be too big or they would stick out too much, etc.....
Well I was wrong they look right at home. Along with the modest drop of my Hotchkis springs it looks great. I took it over some of my daily roads to judge ride impact and I am amazed that the ride is better. Like so many have said here before the stock Bridgestones are crap! I went from 17's to 19's so you would think with so much less sidewall the ride would degrade. Not the case at all. The ride is comfortable and much quieter to boot.
I will try some handling challenges tomorrow. I use a couple of 270 deg off ramps so we'll see how the suspension and new wheels all come together.
Did I mention the wheels look hot?
By the way Greg at GSC continues to be the man. He has given me great prices on my suspension, hawk pads, and now on these wheels. Great service as well!
