they are not my cup of tea, but to each their own. i will admit, yours looks pretty good. my main complaint would be the really low profile tires you have to get

I agree with you on that, just have to be careful. I've got 295/25/20 on the back of my 911 right now. 245/30/20 up front.

Can you put up some more pics of the Z with better lighting on flat ground?
It would be nice to see the nuances of ride height, wheel gap and fitment.
The car looks great in this photo and this is what 20s should look like. Maybe its because everything is black, but the wheels do not look too big for the car in this photo.

Best I can find at my office. Sold this car a few years ago. The ground here is fairly level. I was lowered on Hotchkis springs. The dragon photo was under hard cornering. Never rubbed with a 275/30/20 on the rear.

Default 03 350z new wheels?

So I just got my 2003 350z, but I really dislike the stock tires and rims on it.
Would 20' tires look good or is that too big? I was thinking maybe 18's or staggered.
Suggestions?

America is one of the few countries in the world still using the imperial system, yet you still manage to screw it up.

20' = 20 feet
20" = 20 inches

FYI - this has been gone over countless times.

Default Wheel Size Fitment!!!!!

Hello,

I'm purchasing these wheels soon and would like to know if it would fit properly. They are 20" Verde Axis Concave V99 20x9 front & 20x10.5 rear with a bolt pattern of 5x114.3. Offset I was thinking about was 30 since the OEM wheels offset are also 30. Your answers/opinion would be much appreciated.

Picture below.

Keeping the 20's thread alive! Need some meat in the back for my S/C coming. Bought the rims with tires from a buddy that had them on his G37. Putting on my flame suit.

Ipad can't post all at once I guess.

Another.

Uno mas!

If you mean in general, yes. If you have specific purpose for that, you should elaborate so that you can get steered in the right direction.
