Okay cool. I'm at about 18,000 and it seemed soon to me. Glad to know I got good use of them. New tires for me!

Michelin Pilot Super Sport Cup 2. I put them on in March, put 17 miles on them to drive home and haven't had it out since. Damn shoulder surgery!

Darn, I guess you can't speak for how they handle. Did you notice if they were somewhat quiet or had a lot of road noise? Sounds like I need to take your Z for a spin. lol

Edit: oh wait, are those racing tires?

They are street, but they are definitely sticky. Can't remember the noise. It's 507 rwhp, so it's a blast to drive. The clutch is a bitch though. Ask Lou!

Went with the S-04's this time around. Like them alot. Break in was a little weird though. Took a little while for them to wear in. They felt very slick at first.


Went with NISMO sizing and if i remember correctly we have 15mm and 20mm spacers.

Hey guys, will be moving to back to St. Louis at the end of the month for a new job opportunity and hope to meet some fellow Z owners in addition to getting back in the car scene.

So far only mods are 15mm H&R DRS all around, painted rear valance and fog, and a voodoo shift knob.

Anyway here's me, apologies for the poor picture quality, but don't be afraid to give me a wave around town soon!


Maybe I'll see some of at the show labor day weekend?

Hi RanRich, nice to have another Z in STL.

So guys I ended up going with the Michelin Pilot Super Sport. Worth every last penny. It's like a new car again. Look at all that tread!
