I want to say that they were steel but it was awhile
ago...

On the flipside I got to borrow my friend's 300ZX TT
for a week. I almost crashed it in the rain while
making a slow right hand turn. The boost crept up, the
back end went out, I corrected, HICAS 4 wheel steering
disagreed and we were fighting eachother with the car
fishtailing all over the place for a good 4-5 seconds
(felt like an hour of walking a tightrope)
