I like those wheels or the Forgestars. I'm not real crazy about the whale tale wing though.

Just ordered my avant garde m310 powdercoated gloss black. Can't wait to get them. I've had avant garde on a previous bimmer and loved them.

Man I must be the only guy that loves the stock sport wheels? On similar note I plan on getting some VMR's for my MK5 GTI along with an H&R suspension.

Next mods for the Z will probably be Koni Yellows to be more competitive in my C-Stock class in Auto-X. I'm just hoping the ride doesn't get harsher.

Oh yeah, I threw in the K&N drop ins and no change was felt or expected. Too bad I can't go with Stillen Gen 3s.

I'm having the hardest time figuring out what style to go with on my z. i like the swift springs but i have been 1told that h&r offer better products. as far as the springs will it void the factory warranty and does it make the car ride rougher. its also hard finding rims that go good with the gunmetal color, I'm considering black but still haven't came to a decision

stephen · 04-10-2012, 08:48 AM

Ok wednesday april 11th 630-700 wildwings north charleston park behind see you all there!!!

I have silver z and have my gloss black avant garde wheels on order. As far as springs, I wanted h&r at the beginning and changed to swifts because I don't want to have to buy camber kits. I would still go with h&r if I didnt need camber kits. A guy with my wheels I have on order has swifts and no camber kits.

I've done a lot of research on this. Would it be best to wait and save for camber kit? (front or rear?) and what's best SC...? H&R or swifts?

i'm probably a no go for Wed. We'll just have to see how it goes tomorrow.

ClemsonWill · 04-10-2012, 09:51 AM

I have assisted with a number of different brands of spring installs. Seems like the guys with sprint springs have had some issues with squeeking and low speed (maybe you guys with them can chime in). It's supposed to be a better auto-x or track spring though. I have H&Rs and my only complaint is that I feel they are a bit bouncy on the interstate with the stock strut. I think they would be much better with some Koni Yellows. I haven't heard from the guy with Eibachs. His must have worked out pretty good but they don't drop the car as much.
