This will be the third time I've used a mobile installer with tires from tire rack, the first two times went without a hitch.
Go mobile tires, beach blvd, Midway city.




It's been a long time and I've slept since then, but I seem to recall the high performance Z cars of the past had huge steam-roller tires in the back with flares.
Maybe it helped with lap times but i felt it ruined the good lines of the car.

My oldest brother bought a 260Z with part of his bonus money from signing with the braves, he only let me drive it once but I loved that car.
I also seem to recall that the driver's seat was the first thing to go with rips and tears.
