Nope. My square setup is entirely dependent on the existence of 17" ZE40s.

It is in my living room taunting me everyday. It would have already gone on but I keep forgetting to contact the powder coating place to have the grills done. Also I have another part coming and it seems like it would be best to install all of these parts at once.

Ah gotcha- I figured when you asked about Diez's Advan setup it was something you were thinking about.

ZE40's... I have high hopes for these. I bet 17" will come out before the end of the year

I am just hoping for a unicorn size and offset that is BBK friendly. I really just want something like the 17x9.5+47 but a ZE40.

That would be phenomenal. ZE40's are great looking wheels, how do they compare weight/strength wise to the CE/RE/TE?

They are both lighter and stronger, and have the knurled inner lip to help prevent the tire slipping on the wheel and going out of balance. And edged logos instead of stickers.

Ray's also has data to show that ZE40s make you 40% more attractive to the opposite sex.

I wouldn't mind a facelift AP1 to be honest. Everytime I watch a video of an AP1 I get 1000rpm envy. Those extra 1000rpms give me the fizz. That with all the AP2 suspension goodness. Is it really a facelift AP1 if you get all the fancy new suspension geometry?
