AFS Grand Sport Rims & GY Eagle F1 tires

[NotSlo]

Just installed these last week on my 96 LT4. I love the black on black and the Eagle F1 GS-D3s are amazing tires. It's like riding on rails. I'm getting the rear flares instaled soon. Next is lowering, paint the calipers and tinting.

315/35-17s on the rear and 275/40-17s on the front.

That's not my lawn! It's my neighbor's.... Besides, I mow at the top setting of the mower to keep it that lush... Glad you like the wheels. I fell in love all over again. :cool

[Wamp]

me too

just ordered the rims sunday, had a friends GS rims on about 6 months ago and also fell in love with the look. Before I put mine on I will have to Paint calipers (red) and some touch up paint on the slotted rotors since you will be able to see them now.

Our cars are sisters! Black looks fast sitting still.

That looks good. Aren't those tires great? Have you gone through standing water? The odd sensation of actually vacuuming down onto the pavement is worth the $.

The dry ride is quiet and nailed to the road. I tried a burnout then remembered new tires. Ooops.

Looks Great....just got the Eagle F1 GS-D3's on my GS about two weeks ago and they are awesome . Also noticed how much better the ride is. The old GSC's must have been hard as rocks after 7 years

I had them about a week and we had a total downpour here in Columbus. I was doing about 60 in the left lane and passed a C5 vert in the center lane doing about 35. He looked at me like I was crazy as I passed him. The tires are just plain awesome in the rain.


BTW, she is in the shop right now. Looks like I bent a pushrod somehow. I was dropping my son to school and heard a noise from the engine which turned to a screech. I immediately shut her down and had her towed. Luckily I stopped it when I did. Here is the damage.

I love my GS-D3's as well! I had half tread left on the old Michelin pilot sports when I took them off. I cannot believe I bounced down the road so long on those dang Michelins! Goodyear is going to get all my tire money from now on!

NotSlo, have you thought about a little lowering?

I purchased a set of ZR1 wheels and tires three years ago from AFS and last year I noticed a crack in one of the spokes (wife was in a wreck) I sent a email with picture of wheel and they paid for the freight both ways and replaced the wheel (free) what a great company to do bussiness with.
