btw I hate vague thread titles like this where you have no idea what the subject is, you may as well have named it "I got out of bed today"

How about tire sizes?
275/35 and 255/35

the 275 on the 10.5 is a tiny bit stretched. That 275 was previously on my 9.5 which looked great but i wanted a more aggresive look.. too bad there are no 295 on z1 starspec.

It looks awesome. Super aggressive.

And i thought my 275 rear tire on a +38 offset wheel would be agressive. Next wheel setup i go with im going aggressive like yours.

Btw, there are some people here that do 235 tire on 10 inch wheels so yours is not as stretched as you think

lol 235 on a 10 inch WIDE wheel.

Cause he said his 275 is stretched on the 10.5 and i was just saying that some people are crazy enough to put 235 on their 10 inchers.

Did your ALCON BBK ever get finished???

I'd love to see a snap of your wheels, with those huge *** ALCON calipers hiding inside of them.
