I wanted to have carpet on the floor of the trunk, along with some heat insulation -- to keep things a little cooler in back on drives to more remote tracks. Got the factory mat, used it as a...

I believe the Z/28 team was trying to get 18-inch wheels to work, but settled on 19s in the end. Given how tight the clearance is, even with my 19-inch Finspeeds, I get why they made that decision...
