The deal is gone so I'll be looking for new. I think I can live with the stretched rear tire OK. I'dstill prefer something a little wider and/or thicker. I'll probably have to roll my fenders too, but that's no big deal. I'll lok into getting a roller kit.
Next, I'll consider a S Tech or Eibach kit to lower it a little more.
And Ian, I'll get different rotors when these go.

They also sell the heat gun if you're interested.

Thanks for the link, jb. I had no idea the tool was so expensive. Maybe I'll rent one or buy it and rent mine out.
Ian, what rotors did you get and where did you get them?

My suspension plans are currently held up waiting on some parts and I don't want to buy a fender-roller until I'm sure I need one.
pearlwhite03 mentioned a body shop that would roll fenders for $75 a side (I think that was the price). I can't remember exactly where they were, but it would be cool to have a body shop do it so they could fix any small paint cracks.

Way to go Gilley!!
ANd I say if someone rents the fender roller, we have a meet where everyone rolls fenders and contributes to the rental price! (I think this was mentioned before somewhere)

Tein Basics are pretty resonable in cost, and you get shock absorbers tuned specifically for their coil-over spring... and you can set the height of your car to exactly what you want.

Sean, wow it looks awesome. But of course I'm partial. Another option to consider is go with 255/30/20 in the front. That's the setup I have on the G now 255/30 f and 285/30 rear with H-Techs in front and S-Techs in the rear and fenders cut. I'll post up a pic tomorrow.
Fine job!

What brand tires did you get?
How did you split two sets of springs? What springs do you have on the Z?
I appreciate your input since your car inspired me.
BTW, are you running stock shocks and sway bars?
