Whoa.

Tod, so you ran a 275 on a 20" rim with only a 30 sidewall? This on a 8.5" wide.

That settles it, I can do a 275 on a 19" rim with a 35 sidewall.

Yes it can be done. It may not be appropriate, and some people are against it. But if the customer is aware that it is not a correct fitment, and that the car would handle better with the appropriate size, and wear a bit better as well...its their call. There are more extreme cases that I obviously can't/won't sell...this isnt one of them though.

I love the staggered wheel height. It's a great look for the Z.

Rear- 20x8.5 Konig Appeal in black opal finish and 275-30-20 Nitto 555s.
Diameters:
Front: 25.8"
Rear: 26.5"
Diff: Rear is 0.7" bigger than the front.

I guess that's close enough for the <1/2" and >2/3" diference requirement for the ABS to work.

Default Need some help in locating a 19 inch Konig Appeal

Hey Guys,

I need some help if you can in locating an out of production rim. Does anyone know of a set / single of Konig Appeals (19 inch) for sale? I had a car fire which destroyed one of my rims beyond repair.

I am willing to pay a finders fee of 100 dollars to anyone that can help me find/purchace at least 2 of these rims.

Thanks for your time.

David.
