20'' Wheel & Tire Discussion Thread
All a matter of taste and,what you think proper design and proportion of
wheels&tire are on a Z.
IMO,20's are just too big.They cheapen the look of the Z and the intent of the
original designers.Also,as mentioned,not many tire choices available.
19's are best hands down.
If you are looking for function over form...track your Z,go with 18's.

its aaaight! personal preference,but i won't do it if its not of high quality. my buddy has dub's and his car looks like a matchbox. evryone's checkin it out! first off, it's so heavy, i can feel the Z struggling to move w/ such weight!!! plus the wheel has to wear 30 series tires and it traces all the bumps and creases on the road wc includes being able to tell if it heads or tail as you run over a coin.
In my new Z owner thread I had mentioned I was thinking about getting 20's for my new z. Someone made the comment not to go larger then 19's but didn't give any reasons. So my question is why wouldnt you want 20's on your z? Are there complications or alterations that need to be done to the car? Any input would be helpful thank you

i think staggered 18'F 9' wide & 19'R 10'-11' wide would look sick...careful w/ the style tho. V/S mesh or WERK meister's are always nice incl. BBS LM's. be ready to spend some hard earned cash!
Actually 20's are perfect because they give you the with you need but style selection does decrease. 20's are great with grip.

My contribution to the 20" wheel thread:
20x9.5-255/35/20/F
20x10.5-285/30/20/R
Axis Super Penta
Tein Street Basis Coilovers (modified rear upper)
Little more to go in the back. Need to roll a small portion of the quarters. Going for drivability, NOT hellaflush. Currently a 1 finger gap under normal compression for rears. I wanna get it to 1/8" under compression.

Seems like a mixed crowd for 20" wheels on the Z. I personally wouldn't mind 19's but the ones in these shots are 20's. They are actually up for trade if anyone is interested.
