Can't wait to get these on the car!.

Lee, they look like the ones in the lower left of the brochure you posted. Are you refering to the groove machined around the center?

it is going to be at fontana (california speedway) right off the 91and 15. the key is to get there before 6am. there usually is 300-400 cars. it is well run though and one can get 3-4 runs . its the only 1/4 mile strip in so cal . the other is famoso in bakersfield .and they dont do any t and ts till may ., its sad that there isnt a strip that operates a regular program

Nice wheels Hans! That was some score you got there, I guess no mask & firearm was involved!

GOLDCYLON · 11-30-2009

I still think a gun and a mask were involved lol

The Z arrived today in good shape! I always sweat handing the car over to the transporters. Moving truck arrives tomorrow. With any luck I'll get the wheels mounted by the end of the week. Can't wait.

To the FBI guys, it was 84 degrees and sunny here today, took the Z for a short ride. I'm really going to like this 12 month a year driving weather. Need to get over to the Coast Highway.

glad she made it out safe , the only trouble with 12 months of driving is the miles pile up in a hurry. i put 100 k miles on the blk 90 in 5 years. it looks like the dr cleared me to go to the strip so i will be there ,but it sounds like you will be busy moving in . hope to one day finally meet one of the fbi guys

i know we will get a chance to have some fun beating up ojn some cars a t the strip this next year

Update on the Dymag fitment...

I spent the last week doing honeydews and getting the new place livable after moving in 7 days ago. We have 90% of it done, so I had some time to check the fitment of the wheels on the car.

The news is mostly good. The rears fit perfectly with the outer face of the wheel and tire flush with the fender lip. It appears no spacers will be required. The previous owner told me they came off a ZR-1 so I was hopeful that would be the case. There are however two minor interference issues. The brake lines (I'm running Earls Stainless) and the e-brake cable hit the tire. I'm going to have to find a way to route them differently to give me clearance. If anyone has experience with this let me know and help save me some time. I think I will need some sort of a 90 degree fitting where the brake line meets the caliper. On the e-brake cable I'm not sure what to do. It's a tight fit and there's no slack in the cable to work with. I'm open to suggestions.
