Default Installed New Wheels On The Z06 Last Week...

Just got my ICONZ 860Z's installed last week figured I would snap a few pics and share with everyone.

18X9.8 up front and 19X11 in the rear with NITTO INVOS wrapped on them. I really want to give the car a more racy look the CCW SP 500's were nice but a littel to much bling for me.

Next year I will be dropping in a LS3 strocker motor and upgrading my blower to a "T" Trim head unit hoppinmg to put down 700RWHP with the set up.

Nice looking wheels....but with that many spokes, and their funky inner valve stem arrangement, that's gonna get old real quick for routine tire pressure adjustments.

+1 My buddy's G35 w/ HRE 840s really sucks to get to the valve stem.

Yes the valve stem arrangment is a bit of a pain but the clean rim looks really good.

Guess I better get used to jacking it up for tire pressure checks.
