Varrstoen has the answer. Nobody cares if you're using knock off rims, it's not like you're racing it anyway. http://www.varrstoen.com.au/shop/2-2-1-wheels/2-2-1-rims-wheels-18i - $1200 a set delivered to you. (Ignore the colour) http://www.varrstoen.com.au/shop/1-1-1-wheels/1-1-1-rims-18in-wheels - $1400 a set. I've got BBS LM's and while they are a pain to clean they're not too bad, plus I imagine your brake pads won't be anywhere near as aggressive as the ones I run. It's worth it. I guess if you wanted to hit the middle ground between spokey/TE37 Varrstoen still has you covered with the CE28 copies: http://www.varrstoen.com.au/shop/3-3-1/3-3-1-rims - $1400 It's a no brainer if you're looking to avoid the outrageous prices of the originals and still have an amazing looking car. And as mentioned the RPF1 are an amazing wheel for a low price too. (Note these are 17", 18s would look even better)

As it sits with the new suspension. I think I'm going to order some spacers for the front, it almost looks broken.

I recently moved to my new house, which happens to have a garage. This is wonderful to me as I never had my own garage before. I am very happy I can keep my toys in a proper toy box. 2008 Harley Davidson Night Rod Special and 2011 Camaro 2SS/RS

There just literally aren't any around here (maybe 20 e36 m3s total in my province), and I'm not really going to trust a BF.C member to actually ship me something expensive. I'll be getting kosei K1s or Apex Arc-8s as track wheels. DSIIs will be street wheels only.

What year is your Z06? By looking at it, I'm guessing mine has the factory drop on it, as that looks a lot higher. Or maybe it's just the lighting throwing me off. I got rid of my Scion xA as a daily commuter. Had it for 6 months and it was just sooooo boring. So I traded it for this: (cell phone pics) 2004 Lincoln LS Ultimate - V8 goodness, every possible option other than heated rear seats and nav. The air conditioned seats are probably my favorite part. Very comfortable and pretty quick. The Z06 is much happier with the 1.5l gone and the new 3.9 keeping it company.

dangerz posted:It's an '03. Mine's lowered as far as the factory bolts let you go while still keeping the appropriate rake. It probably looks a little higher there because I'm just launching. What year is yours? '02. It probably is the launch, the front looks a lot higher than the rear.

You said "terribly" but I'm wondering what kind of times you consider terrible. And what issues prevented you from doing better? Reaction time or anything mechanical?

Took delivery of this today: 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T R-Spec Manual Loving it so far! Haven't drove a manual as a daily driver since 2006 when my '94 Acura Integra got stolen from my apartment complex (as a note, the dealer parked it like that for delivery - i swear im not a dbag that parks in handicap spots)

davebo posted:You said "terribly" but I'm wondering what kind of times you consider terrible. And what issues prevented you from doing better? Reaction time or anything mechanical? Long story short, I need to focus on launches. I wasn't able to find a good balance between power release and power to the ground. I wasn't comfortable enough to take traction control off, so it would constantly kick back. The other issue is that I would spin the tires even shifting into 3rd gear. It's all newbie stuff and I just need more experience on a track like that. From what I've read, the car is capable of being in the low 8s/high 7s stock.

I bought a thing. 2013 Fit Sport. It's really quite fun for 117hp and it has a surprising amount of room inside. Sold my Mustang but we still have a 135i so I think I'll survive.
