New wheels fitted, feels like a new car now the RFT's are gone. Much nicer drive.

May I ask what tyres you chose to go with those wheels? I must confess the RFT's are one of the things I like least about my Z :(

(M6 wheels yes?)

Cheers

I went with the New Falken 453's. £580 for the 4 tyres.
Inital impressions are good, but they are a soft compound and wear is apparently poor.
I believe the wheels are F10 M5 replicas, but I stand to be corrected.
