Those wheels are horrible. They don't look right. I think they should be only used on a vette. Go ahead and send them to me, I'll take them off your hands for you.



J/K, those look great on the vert. At least you will have some unique wheels on the road, for now at least.

I also like your gas tank cover (whatever it is called). I wonder if they make a black one.

Thanks. The gas cover is from a Mitsubishi. They did make a very dark grey cover that was used on late model Eclipse's.

I'm sure you could have it painted to match. You could get it painted at the same time you get your spoiler painted.

Fred, I'm looking forward to seeing the pics with the tires when I get home. The pictures are blocked here at work.

Great! Let me know what you think. I'm looking forward to all the warm weather that's ahead and all the local car shows. I kind of got burnt out last year. Didn't go to any.

I only went to two of them last year. Of course the Z wasn't ready for them before then, so that was partly to blame. I've got a thing or two to do to it this year before she's ready for the shows, but I'm definitely looking forward to entering some. I don't know if you've noticed it, but it seems like the same few people win the CCCC shows every time regardless of whether there are actually better cars there or not. Some of the winners have left me stupified.

Sounds like a plan.
