Message	I finally had my set of 2003 350Z track wheels + new tires mounted and balanced on Saturday. Much to my dismay, a tech discovered that one of the wheels was bent once it was on the balancer. Damn! Meeting with a guy on craigslist to find a replacement worked out last night. Got them mounted today and put them on as soon as I got off work. Oh yes. I knew that performance would suffer a little due to larger size/more weight. Honestly, the only thing that feels even a little different is braking. It feels a little less crisp. Each wheel/tire combo weighs about 25lbs. Does anyone have stats on their NA wheel + (any) new tire? Sumitomo HTR Z III 245/40/18s all around. They feel great so far, though it's been doing nothing but raining here in the NW lately. Pics from a real camera to follow in the next couple weeks. Many thanks to BannonZ and all of the pictures he posted with these on his red TT for the inspiration. Thanks for looking! 1992 NA 5 speed
