20"s on a Z


Mr A

Recommended Posts

its an idea that needs more information to develope, but thinking about 20" alloys on my Z, However, when i look at my standard 18" rays, doesnt look like theres much room for 20's under those arches, 19's would just about fit.

 

does anyone have 20's on thier Z, if so, what offset, tyre sizes and alloy width will work?

 

also, the drawbacks!

The Z will swallow 20's no problem at all. I am on my 3rd set of 20's now and not had a problem with any of them. The latest ones are an et20 all round and sit very nicely in the standard arches running 245/35/20 front and 275/30/20 rear on an 8.5 & a 10J. My Z hasn't been lowered....yet.

 

This was the first set...FOX RS8's

:thumbs: They look amazing, all of them. i think ill have to take a picture of the distance between the tyre & arch on my z, think my car may have been lowered by the previous owner, or maybe the uk spec ones comes slightly lowered then the other specs.

 

either way, ill try sticking on some pictures later and hopefully, you can all let me know if it looks normal for the gap between my arch and tyres to look as it does.

 

so far, thanks for helping me see some 20/20 vision.

Remember that as long as you get the right profile tyre the rolling radius should be the same, so the fact that its 20" shouldn't make a difference as to whether they fit. On the other had your choice of width and offset will dictate whether they fit, particularly as you're lowered. :)

Best to get a Zed specialist to help you out. Envy, Adam@Z1, Andy (Kudos) or ESR and they'll ensure you get exactly what you need.

 

Always wise to know what you're talking about as none of the above are infallible.
