After about a year or so of havingthem i finally bit the bullet and bought the tires. I would have a while ago but I was sick, and had no idea if I was going to be able to splurge on tires.... I had bought my rims back in the beginning of 06, than got REAL sick... Sick as in almost dieing

Well, a year later and I am back working, and am able to afford tires... WOOOHOO!!

I also have a stereo I got for Christmas in '05 (yah I know) that I was unable to put in until this week as well. But the bright side is my 2004 Z only has 12k miles on it!!!

BTW, yes I am going to get it lowered ASAP..... Plus I got my tinting appt this next weekend.. LOL I am getting a year and a half worth of work done in a few weeks

It feels good to be better happy 100 posts to me.. only took almost 3 years to get it...

 

NICE

Lowered or not it looks good to me.
Glad your doing better, now put some miles on that thing

Cheers

Kevin

 

WELCOME BACK. How does it feels to drive her again?

 

Yah thanks guys!

Im really stoked I get to start working on my car again. When I had bought my rims I had almost had to sell them because I was in such bad debt, and was released from my job.

Turns out everything worked out because I got on a government assisted program for my medical bills, and unemployment paid the bills. while I couldn't work. I wasn't able to collect disability because Iw as a contracted worker which kind of sucked, but I had to do what I had to do to pay the bills...

I have been back to work since November, and this was the first check since starting work that I am 100% out of debt. I had owed my parents about $10,000 for the help they gave me.

 

Wow! It's great to hear that you're back at it again. You gain a whole new appreciation of life and all of your friends, family and aspects surrounding it all.
Nice car--don't worry about lowering it. Just go out and drive!

 

Looks nice!

 

Good to read that you got better, you have a nice summer to look forward to, nice wheels too

 

what size are they? 18s?

 

yeah, what size and offset are those badboys?

 

42mm on the 19x8, and 30mm on the 19x9

I was going to go 9 in front, and 10 in the rear, but the lip was a bit too big for my liking. Mine has a lip, but it's not that big. Thanks got all the kind words fellas! Appreciate it.

Yah, I did gain a new perspective on enjoying what I have while I have it. I never thought I would like to work again and I actually don't mind going into work!!

 

I had the 19x8 at one time, but I didn't like the offset so I bought the 19x9 with 30 offset, looked alot better. Sad thing is that's the biggest offset for this type of wheel. The lip on the 9's isn't to much bigger. But I have the 9's on the front and 10's on rear with 28mm offset. I think you would like it. But you already have them now. I think I'm going to get some 10mm spacers soon.

By the way, very clean looking Z.
