Those are very nice. The same wheels as McDuck I believe.

Why did you have to wait so long may I ask? I ordered my Racing Harts with the same tires that you have and got them in about 5 days.

$3100 seems to be a pretty good price. Mine were significantly more

the reason for the wait is because Mackin/Volk is no longer keeping the SF-winnings in regular stock in the US - but I had to wait when I ordered mine b/c of the unique offsets (no one besides me is running the +29 in the front - it's actually a REAR wheel - and the +29 in the rear is also not as popular) - I didn't want to have to worry about rolling my fenders, so the 0.5" larger rear lip size I would get with going with the +17 in the rear did not tempt me (the +19 and +29 have the same size lip - only the +19 has more BBK clearance - even though by looking, I think I could squeeze a set of Wilwoods behind there)

As for the price - as I said, I paid for the wheels in full with a cashier's check, hence the GREAT deal ($3,100 included the upgraded tires/sizes, locks, and shipping) - normally, these wheels will run around $3,200-3,300 shipped with 245/275 Toyo's... I purchased them from Chris at F1 motorsports - he was great, I'm just an impatient SOB and hated the wait... which you can't avoid if you want Winnings because like I said, ALL SF-winnings are special order from now on, so be prepared to wait 2+ months...

the tires, even though I've only put around 25 miles on them, are great so far - I got to flog them in a parking lot with standing water, and their road-holding ability far out-weighs what I was expecting... they ride so much smoother than my previous 17" Fuzion's and are quieter to boot (which completely floored me on both accounts) - If I can get 15k good miles out of them, I will go out on a limb and say that for the price, there is NO better tire for the money (added bonus is the larger selection in sizes, as seeing only Pirelli and Conti offer these particular sizes) - and the tread pattern is just icing on the cake!

Great wheel/tire choice, your car looks clean I love the front lip/grill combo and the lower rear bumper black looks good. Very nice set-up...

That grill...oh that grill really sets it off. Congrats, I'm sure you're stoked.

Thanks guys - I really appreciate the positive comments! I love everything I've done to my car, but it's nice to know others feel the same way!

I'm going to try to post some better pics this evening, so stay on the lookout!

I'm leaning toward the same set up so I don't have to modify the fenders on the my Z. As far as offset (I know there +29F and R) but are those A in the front and B in the back?
