New Wheels for the Old Girl

03-20-2010, 09:04 AM

I received some wheels for the Z. THey are 17x7 Konig wheels, offset of 40 unfortunately, but I went and bought 1.5" spacers to have them flush with the fenders as much as possible and have only gotten the rears mounted, as I am waiting on some cash to go buy new tires for the car. I figure that I am going to get 225/45/17 tires for the car and that should put my speedo at about half a mile while cruising at 70.

Couldn't bear to hurt the wife's feelings when she bought them for me as a birthday gift. And plus I think that I am going to actually be mounting these on the Kia Optima instead.

I was thinking about going and doin the Z32 brake swap when I go to redo my suspension components and switch out to five lug. I do like some 4 lug wheels and I will admit, it was nice of her to actually go and pick these up. Like I said I may bolt these onto the Kia Optima that we own while I am going to also turbo her out as well. Need to get some power behind that car
