    Unfortunately....the front tires at about 11:00 o'clock will hit the front splash guard of the fender. I had it lower, but it restricted movement of the tire. I raised it touch, and it rubs something awful during hard turns. I raised it touch more and it rubs only during certain situations, but nothing like before that hindered performance. Remember...it's a Z06.

    Went to a wine tasting event this past weekend...All vettes were being parked in the grass. The guy parking the cars got frustrated with me, because we couldn't find a level enough spot for me to get into, so he walked off pissed. I started to just go ahead and park in the visitor/spectator lot, when some other guy running the show came out and helped me get into a little trench just beside some paved parking spots.

    Made some more adjustments to bring the whole car down about 0.25"....subtle, yet manageable.

    Looking good, i can only imagine the noise.
    comparing vette leaf springs to any other leaf spring arrangement is like apples and oranges. it isnt conventional!

    Your car is pure sex...the epitome of what a modern vette owner should do...after all these cars suspension were designed and perfected at the nurnburgring (probably misspelled that) and I always see it as a waste everytime I see an automatic corvette with big heavy heavy oversized rims. My dream car is a 1992 corvette btw (dad owned one). Keep up the good work man

    The only problem I have with these big expensive wheels is the weight. When I had the 360s on, the car seriously felt sluggish. The whole reason I went with 1 piece forged was so that I could hopefully stay the same weight or less than my current ZR1 wheels. Well, that was not the case. The 360s were considerably heavier, and I doubt I would have broke 12s in the 1/4, and my confidence to take it past 1.0+G sustained was not there. I knew I had to get rid of them. Granted, I did have the shitty Nittos on there too, and had full intentions on getting some Michelins later on down the road...but a guy found me that wanted them, so I sold them.

    Since powdercoating the ZR1s, putting new Michelins on, getting a tight alignment...the car has never felt better. I have some track days (road course mostly, but a few 1/4 mile runs) lined up this year, so I feel more confident than ever in my current setup.

    And don't be mad...I actually had to raise the car some, because I was rubbing like hell on hard braking. I know its hard to classify it as stanced, but in the vette world, it is considered slammed and stanced.

    Don't mind me, just throwing ideas out there.
