I basically made a plate shaped to fit in the LCA out of nylatron. The plate sits between the leaf spring and LCA to prevent the spring from rubbing on metal. I tried using the WCC lowering bolts up front but the car didnt get very low, so I decided to go this route.
now that im lookin at it, that a great idea. so basically somewhat of a press fit. where do you get that nylatron, how does it come.
How do those stretched tires put back hold up when you get on it or take a sharp turn
They respond just like any other tire would...Not sure why people think my tires are stretched, the sidewall is pretty much vertical, the way the wheel lip is formed gives the illusion that the tire is stretched. On another note, I have done several Sebring track days in my Audi on what some people consider stretched tires with no issues whatsoever. This includes driving with passengers in corners at very high speeds. Unless the tire is extremely stretched or under inflated, they will respond just like any other tire will.
Thanks for the compliments, the car is lowered with no bolts up front with plastic isolater pads I made and longer rear bolts.
The tires are stock z06 widths but they are sumitomo's so they run pretty narrow, I am planning on getting wider tires soon. The wide angle lens makes the tire look alot more stretched than it actually is.
Beautiful car. Would look even better with some dark tint on the windows. Just a thought. Enjoy!!!!!!
B6S4- car looks amaizing!! here are my classics, 17x10 fronts, 18x11 rears, 2in lip. 275/40/17 fronts, 315/30/18 rears (yea they look a lil silly cause its only a 25in rear tire, hence the bigger rear wheel gap) the 295/35/18's look better. i just couldnt resist 155 shipped for the rear tires, lets just say they have been fun.. i would love to lower my car about a 1/2 in more, but the headers already scrape pulling in and out of my driveway. i had to convert the nef images to jpeg's hence the lower pic quality.
That looks sharp. Got the same car and love the stock look. Those wheels still keep the beautiful lines of the Z lookin sharp. What exactly does offsets mean?
