Sportmax 002 15x8 or Konig Rewind 16x7?
I agree with Jeff, the extra wheel would be great to have as a backup at that price. The Yokohama's are a great choice. I bit the bullet last week & ordered tires for the new Rota RB's I bought a month ago. Originally was going with the S.Drives but ordered Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 star's instead. 205/55/16 Got them on last friday, they look great....

Recomendation on tire size for my new XXRs.
What width & offset are the new wheels? 205/55/16 would be the same diameter as stock. The 50 205 series will reduce the diameter by about 3% and throw your speedo off. The 215's should not be a problem with clearance to the front struts. Maybe the shop will let you test fit one so you can verify the clearance. The rear won't be a problem. I have a set of 205/55/16 dunlops coming in next week for my new wheels, only other option with the dunlops was 225/50/16 which I thought would rub.

question about buying a 1983 280zx turbo
If you are in the market for that level of car, this is the one I would buy .... It has 52000 original miles, Yasin is asking $8500 , get it shipped to your location for around 1500 from Colorado by a professional carrier, and you are still way ahead. You can be assured the description in his ad is very accurate & their are no surprises. He has a very good reputation. Here is the link to his ad ... http://www.zcar.com/forums/read/8/2131101/2131101#msg-2131101 If I were in the market for another turbo ZX, I would look no further.

Still No Love at Barrett-Jackson
It actually sold for $6250 .. the rest is the buyers premium, (I hate auctions that have those) A pretty decent deal for the buyer.

We lost a member of the Z family today
Thanks for posting that Jeff and getting the word out. I am certain Kurt & the family are very grateful for your effort. Hopefully there is a trusted member in or near the Corpus Christy area that can help them to get a fair sale of Cyind's z car assets. jpzx zcar.com

15x8 Revolutions on Eugene CL
They are great wheels, I had some on a lotus europa a while back. The problem with them is the tire availability, not many choices in the performance catagory for 15" wheels. That is why I am going with 16" rims next month.

Wish I was Frank ... But since I'm not, I will be going the Rota route as well.
