AZA Z-02's, 18x8.5 up front and 18x9.5 out back, so far so good, will probably end up rolling the rear fenders as i get some rubbing under heavy acceleration...will have better pictures up monday, just got them on this morning worked about 15 hours today, and im off to steele, al with JJSPEC Racing for the import faceoff tomorrow...at any rate, here they are

I'm sure it looks better in person, but that picture makes you car look like a swollen caviler with ricer rims on it.

Lol, as much as that sucks to hear it's true. Maybe better pictures will highlight them better.

its just the angle, ive got about 2 fingers width between the tires in the rear and the fender and about a fingers width in the front...and this is with the stock springs back in, i took out the eibachs a while back b/c they started settling more on one side than the other

i dont want to have to do an agressive fender roll, if any, on my car, and with these wheels im good without heavy acceleration, so the car wont be dropped, and ill probably end up putting drag bags in the rear to help with the weight transfer....but i should have some better pics up monday

oh well, cant please everyone, this was a win win for me, i get some wheels i like, a set of stock 17's with decent tires that will find a new home, and eventually a set of 15x10 drag lites will find there way under the rearend if i decide to roll the fenders, if not i may go with a set of 15x8's, drag bags, and call it a day

thank you sir, offsets are 38 in the front and 45 in the back

heres some better shots....believe it or not my wife snapped off my stock shifter today, not sure how, but she had started the car for me, stalled it, restarted it, then came inside and told me she broke something, had to make a special trip to summit tonight and picked up a hurst short shifter that ill be putting in tomorrow

Nice wheels, but imo some Deep dish HRE's on a Goat would be to noice.

Like the one's on this page http://www.hrewheels.com/wheels.php?q=/590R/597R/

The new pics made all the difference. At first I was like, "Eh, I dunno" but they look a lot better in the good pictures. :)

thanks a lot guys, much appreciated, and greddy im not about show, its all about go for me, the wheels were just a stepping point to getting older, i wont spend 3g's on some wheels when i can put it towards the squires kit coming next year....the wheels cost me about $200 more than a nice set of tires would, and now i can sell the stockers, get some draglites out back with some meat on it and finish tearing the rear end up
