Exactly, What good does it do to have 10's in the rear I ask! 
Oh, you rotate the tires from side to side when its like that. (Newer
radials can be rotated this way. It also depends on the tire. some are
directional for max grip ect..)
Id love to have Just the Z-40 rear wing! That would look trick on my 82'
Scirocco. 
Lets look at why it looks so good;      (DR. IS IN)
Its pretty much unique, thats why! And, it had some of the same lines as the
stock body, thats why! You dont hear people saying, "I like that wing, it
looks like the wing on a Ferarri"!  Because its NOT!. See. Now you know.
Dont you feel better??  :)
