New Wheels for my Z!

The problem is that if you're going to run that much stretch you need to be super slammed. I would suggest you run a 10mm spacer in the rear wheels,

I would suggest you run a 10mm spacer in the rear wheels, put the rear tires on the fronts, and run a 275 or 285 in the rear tire.

Looks not bad. The rear needs some aggression.

I would say just order spacers now and you're set for awhile.

I really like those wheels man, props again for taking a different route.
