Default wheels and sizes

You may want to consider staying with 18's, depending on how you view performance and handling... an increase in tire size and rim size increases un-sprung weight... in simple terms, it screws the handling...

if you are looking for improvements in handling then tires are a must, semi-sicks will change the car... do not go any larger than 19's it will distroy the handling, might look good but will screw the dynamics of the car... I can't say this enough... the base package is a good place to start.

spend some time considering what you really want from your Z...

I have owned a number of supercars, including lotus's the Z is the best baseline package on the market today and for another $15k it is a supercar killer... I nearly brought a GTR but the dealer was a ****, so another dealer got my money and $15K gave me GTR performance... with a shot of NOS my Z has 580bhp...

drop me a line if you have any handling questions...
