You mention that buying the Z/28 wheels was something which required a" brute-force algorithm", I'm assuming this means the sale of the wheels is somehow VIN restricted? Did you just guess at a VIN? And if you don't mind my asking, how much are a set of Z/28 wheels?
Once you get some track time on the new meats, please let us all know how the various racing tires you are running compare.
Great stuff...

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed reading the build thread!
Yes, Z/28 wheels are still restricted. I kept ordering them online through different sites until one parts store was able to fulfill the order. They cost me $2499 shipped.
I'm also dying to go to track start comparing tires, etc. I'm still waiting on the aero parts, though, and the parts store told me that GM promised the order would be fulfilled before mid-April. Since Z/28 tires stick out quite a bit, I do not want to go to track with sticky tires on them and destroy my paint. I'll hopefully be done in just a few weeks!
