Yeah man, amazing setup. Love it. The only thing it really needs now is a rotor upgrade. Even if you don't track the car just go with the cheap Z1 slotted rotors. They're great and they give the vehicle a slightly more aggressive edge.

I dont know what I like more, TE-37 or GTS

Post up when they are installed!

boost lee i cant believe how wide that 285 looks on your 10.5" rim. 305 will look great!

Boost_lee · 03-26-2014, 01:14 AM

Thanks. I'll lose some sidewall going with a 30 series, but I'm guessing it will look the same from the above angle. The contact patch should look much better though

I'm more excited about the 275's up front, I really hate that gap with the 245's

Might be awhile though.
Got to find some one who can color match it which will not be easy.
Once it is done I'll definitely post pics.

A year later....

Challenge completed!
Formula Silver is a difficult color to match.
The guys at ONEighty did a great job and got very close.

ONEighty also painted the head lights (installed LED Halo mod too), side markers, and emblems.

My Z was a hit a my club's car show over the week end.

Looking good VABAM! I'm liking the door handles too. And those wheels are awesome! LOL! Congrats on the awards too. Sorry I missed the TZCC show last weekend. At least a few of the Emerald City guys made it to the show.

BTW our show is on Saturday, June 7, 2014 at Lee Nissan in Wilson. I'll be sending Todd a flyer this week.

Am I the first person to ever go from Varrstoen ES2's to legit Volk TE37's?

Just got these in today from RavSpec. Originally thought I would get these powder coated because I'm not the biggest fan of silver wheels, but I kind of fell in love with them. Was considering powder coating to either a matte bronze or hi-metal bronze (if possible). My z is a PW 2014, will post pics later when installed

FairladyZ10PG · 06-10-2014, 11:10 PM

^looks good as is

Eclipz · 06-10-2014, 11:40 PM

Sorry for being a noob. For tire measurements, say 305/30/19, the middle number is supposed to be the percent ratio of the sidewall height to the tire width right? So the side wall height is 91.5 mm in total top and bottom, so just the side wall height from wheel to tread is half of that, so 45.75mm correct?

Btw, volk gts phantom is my favorite wheel

dont see many of you running them though
