Default Volk Racing SF-Winning

Alrighty. I finally got my SF Winnings and Toyo T1-R's on my car on Wednesday and now I have the opportunity to post a few quick pix. I would like to thank Chris at F1 Motorsports. He provides excellent customer service and is an overall great guy to deal with! Here are the specs for the wheels/tires:

Wheels:
Volk Racing SF-Winning (Mercury Silver)
19x9.5, +19 (front)
19x10.5, +29 (rear)

Tires:
Toyo T1-R
245/35/19 (front)
275/35/19 (rear)

Overall I am very happy with this setup, but I just wish that Volk make an offset around +22 or so for the rears, but it's no biggie. Also, I think a 255/285 setup for the tires might have been a better choice since there is a bit of stretch. Before people tell me "it would look better if you lower it" or "now all you need to do is drop it a bit and you're set!", I would like to let you all know that I have springs on order, but unfortunately the ones I want are on backorder, so the car is going to have a nice "lifted" look to it for the next 3 weeks.


Also, I'm going to throw in a few key words to help with the searches. I use the search a lot, but there are some different variations in spelling, etc., so I'm including a few to help those who actually use the search feature


Keywords: Volk Racing, Volks, SF-Winning, SF-Winnings, Winnings, Winning, T1-R, T1R

my fav rims on the Z. Good stuff! Did you band your TPS onto the rims? or you just opted to leave them out?

Thanks everyone for the compliments.

BTW, early impressions on the T1-R?
I have only put on about 40 miles on the tires, but they seem okay so far. However, I haven't pushed the car yet so I can't guage how well they stick and handle. During the drive back from F1, I couldn't tell a huge difference from stock, but that was only because I was driving in a straight line on the freeway.

Good stuff! Did you band your TPS onto the rims? or you just opted to leave them out?
I have an '04 Enthusiast, so I didn't have TPS to begin with, so it wasn't an issue for me.

I'm sure pics do the setup no justice. I love my wheels, as well as the newfound attention. Still waiting to post my pics...perhaps I after I get a few new thING'S put on. Hint hint ahhahaha
Haha...I hear you buddy. I couldn't wait that long though! I'll have to stick with just the Winnings for now. Hopefully I'll be ordering a few thINGS myself within a month

overall looks good, but bigger tires would have been better to avoid that stretched look. some people like it but its not for me. otherwise a very nice setup! btw, very nice spoiler, mind if i ask what make that is?

Hehe..thanks guys. This thread is old (kinda...), but as I stated in my first/original post regarding the drop and the "stretched" tires,

Overall I am very happy with this setup, but I just wish that Volk make an offset around +22 or so for the rears, but it's no biggie. Also, I think a 255/285 setup for the tires might have been a better choice since there is a bit of stretch. Before people tell me "it would look better if you lower it" or "now all you need to do is drop it a bit and you're set!", I would like to let you all know that I have springs on order, but unfortunately the ones I want are on backorder, so the car is going to have a nice "lifted" look to it for the next 3 weeks.
Anyways, my new(er) pix with the Hotchkis springs are found here: https://my350z.com/forum/media-share/141393-photoshoot-ings-1-sf-winning-hotchkis.html
