Here's what I have ordered:
Konig Ampliform rotary forged wheels
Front 18x9.5 +25
Rear 18x10 +20
$890 for all four

Was going to run 255/275
Here's the issue: I have the rear wheels but not the fronts. Apparentky the fronts were originally supposed to get to konig March 5. China has not been to work since January 24 (I have a contact on the ground over there. Nobody is working). I don't really see those wheels getting from China to here anytime soon and I'm not about to be driving around on these stocks wheels with worn tread UHO AS tires all summer. Konig says they can't figure out when the wheels will get here, they "hope" 30 more days. Yeah f******* right. They have no clue.

Options:
a) wait it out
B) get some front 18x9.5 +35 and get some spacers (I hate spacers)
c) get 18x10 +20 all around (little worries about fitment and its not quite right for the tires I want to run
D) buy wheels from someone else. PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME OF SOME OTHER WHEELS I CAN ORDER. I am so done with konig right now.

 

Okay....didnt give ya crap in the last thread, but this one.....come on dude.

Only you can decide what to do

 

Wonder what tomorrow's thread will be titled.

 

Was hoping there would be fresh meat in the wheels forum. It's still only YOU GUYS! In all honestly I think I'm going to throw the 18x10s on the front too. That will give me the option of running square tires in the future. Only reason I didn't do it before is I was led to believe that too much offset in front would mess up the steering feel due to too drastic a change in scrub radius

 

Any post you make comes up on the "new posts". Doesn't matter if you make a new thread or update your old one. If someone new is going to see your post they will see it no matter what thread it is in

 

This. ^^^ No need to keep posting the same topic.

Yes, scrub radius will change no matter what you do that deviates from OE. But the truth is, not enough to really matter that much unless you are racing. The Z is already engineered to deliver excellent handling and responsiveness inside of a pretty wide range of offsets on the street. As I mentioned in the other thread, I've run the entire range and where there might be any hit on responsiveness or grip, I have a lot of adjustment range to compensate, as any well planned, well built suspension should. Yes, that means more hardware (FUCA, toe arms, camber arms, etc) but that can come later. For now, concentrate on what tires/wheels you want/need then go from there. Always build/tune suspension around the TIRES; not the other way around.

 

Ahh, I was unaware of this. Point taken

 

OK, if the wheels don't come by April I will just grab the 10" ones for the front too. That's the plan. I will stop posting about this. My bad everyone, this kind of "who knows what is going to happen" stuff gives me anxiety.

 

OP- I believe you need 2 things-
1) Patience.
2) Any wheels that aren't Bronze in color. 2 cents man, gl!

 

OH man, I love bronze wheels on a black and white car. That's my accent color on the car. Can't give that up haha. The only other color I like is hyperblack but those are such a pain to keep clean. Bronze wheels always look good, even with a coating of brake dust. Grey and black wheels just look dirty to me
