Re: Greetings Earthlings
Keith is that you? Welcome back. I was wondering what happened to you since I got back with my new (to me) Z last June. Hope your well.

Who dat?
Who can forget you bro? I still have my Moudy’s polo shirt and Kickin Azz since 1990 t-shirt. I like the Nitto NT05s too. Hit up Robert De Marco to hook you up with a deal.

Re: Greetings Earthlings
I just picked up a set of Toyo R888s. Haven't installed them yet. One of the main reasons I got them is for their width -- as most know, actual tire size varies from one brand to another. The other reason was from the positive feedback I have read.
Take a look at this thread for more info: http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread.php?t=23005 |

Re: Greetings Earthlings
I’m not the guy to ask about road noise..... nothing can be heard over the sound of my stoker and b&b exhaust

Re: Greetings Earthlings
I don't drive my Z much anymore...but, from sitting covered in the garage, the tires, are out of round, and hard....I'm hoping to get a new set, for less than 1k, I still run the 17inch... what is the tire size again...i'm getting old and can't see well, and my mom dressed me funny when I was little.
I have goodyear d'3's on now thanks for the reply's and the shout outs...I might make the gathering in Kentucky this year for a day or so...to try n drum up some business to sell my ole clunker...LOL Last edited by GrayZ; 04-23-2018 at 03:15 PM. |

Re: Greetings Earthlings
Stock sizes are 315/35/17 in the rear and 275/40/17 in front. I got my set of R888s shipped to my door for $760. This doesn't include mounting and balancing of course.
I got mine from TiresDirect.net. Here is the link for the fronts: http://www.tiresdirect.net/TOYO-Prox...98W-P4744.aspx They are not showing the rear size so maybe they have run out. They are supposed to be phased out in favor of the newer R888R, which has a different tread but similar pricing. Due to the softer compound, one thing to consider regarding colder temperatures and long-term storage is the following consumer advisory from Toyo: https://toyo-arhxo0vh6d1oh9i0c.stack..._-10172017.pdf |
