Default My "new to me" ZO6 w/ 360's

Here are a few pics of the 06 Z I just purchased. I just had the 360 forged wheels installed ...also lowered her on the factory bolts.

On to the pics!

2 Very nice - What tires are you running on them? I just order a set of 360's last week - can't wait to put them on!

I also went with Pirelli's have had good luck with them - they are a softer tire then Michellins but tire wear seems to be about the same. I ordered 9.5 - 19 front 12 - 20 rear with 275 ZR30 - 325 ZR25's on PZero Nero's - figured I could go wider on the next set of tires. Do like your choice of the 360 - I went with them also - a little different but we all have our own taste I should get them mid Nov or right around then - If I can figure out how to post pictures I'll get them on

SS~7 congrats on the new Z looks great. Quite a bit of difference in it and the old C5 convertible isn't there. Have fun with it.
