Default They are mine! Finally.

Back in May 2004 I parked next to a black Z with some awesome wheels. I made a note of what they were and told myself, "THEY WILL BE MINE! OH YES, THEY WILL BE MINE".

That day has finally come.

I present to you, my 19" Racing Hart CPF Tunes with BFG G-Force TA's 245/35/19 front and 275/35/19 rears.


The Arrival:

I've always wanted to do that thing where you put $1.00 on the lip to show off how wide it is:

I also cleaned out my garage today. Hung up my poster I've had forever. I have room to walk around all three cars in there now.

The red one is my sister's 320 SLK that I am storing for her over the winter. In the middle is my Magnum. On the left is the Z.

I really haven't driven the car with them yet. Just around the driveway and back into the garage when I was done cleaning.

I weighed all of the new and the old and here is what I got:

New rear (wheel and tire) 50.0 lbs
New front (wheel and tire) 46.5 lbs

Track Rays with stock wheels
Rear: 47.5 lbs
Front 45.5 lbs

So I did gain a little weight but not much.

Looks great Bonz! Now I know why you were so frantic in getting your old rims off in an earlier thread... One of the best Z's on this site

"hahahaha that picture is funny! congrats on the new wheels - they look sweet. how did you end up getting your old wheels off?"

I sat on the ground and basically kicked the tire. With my right foot I kicked it inward on the right of the tire and then quickly kicked in with my left foot onto the left of the tire. Did this repeatedly for about 3 seconds and it popped right off.
