Wheels look great Yun. Do you feel a difference in the Michelins?

Re: New shoes for my Z
 
Scott,

Answer to your question is nothing appreciable. I was concerned that going to lower profile may stiffen the ride - did not happen.

A few interesting observations:

1. The Z was definately taller after the install despite driving around before taking the pic. This morning I noticed the Z had settled down by 3/4" - 1". Driver side is still about 1/4" taller. Moral of the story is give it a couple of days after any suspension work before dishing out for wheel alignment!

2. My LTPWS was working perfect before. So, after installing new wheels minus in the wheel sensors would trip the LTPWS light - did not happen. LTPWS lights up after start (bulb check function) but stays off. I think in the absence of signals from all 4 sensors the system turns off.

3. Amount of clearance behind theses wheels for thicker and larger brake calipers is enormous - I wonder if C6 Z06 fronts would fit? Anyone tried?

And "yes", Michael. All WAZOO guys have met these wheels.
