Whats up guys/girls? I’ve lurked on and for for a bit but never had the time to actually post. I live in Albany over near Albany Med and drive an '03 350Z Track edition. The only mod right now is an injen cold air intake (other than a pioneer deck), but that will change come spring time. I see almost every day a silver civic hatch with a [shift518.com](http://shift518.com) sticker on it parked just down the road from where I live which is what reminded me to post something up here. I need to get some more pictures of the car, but here is one for now. I’m sure I’ll run into some of you guys from time to time.

Thanks. The wheels in that picture are off an '06 touring. I cracked one of the tracks wheels driving down Madison Ave, and ended up buying this set while waiting for the cracked rim to get fixed. Wish Albany would fix some of the fucking roads.

The OEMs on a track are lightweight Rays… I think they are 17 or 18lbs a piece. I couldn’t believe it either. I’m not stupid enough to drive through pot holes but the roads are terrible. Trust me, I couldn’t believe it either.

Noticed the tire was low one day, so I filled it up. It dropped 6psi over night. The guy at premier tire couldn’t believe it either.

Amazing… These are forged wheels so you really hit something hard…
