Default 20's - make a Huge difference!

I saw a Z with 20's on it today and it was the first time I experienced jealously! Time for me to change my "shoes".

20's are the way to go. They fill out the wheel wells perfectly, just look awsome.

People with Z's live around me????? I live in Inglewood/Hawthorne. Cazz, I think I did see your Z one time, i was 2 blocks away from La Brea, and you made a right to go south on it. I'm sure it was you, but this was months ago when you barely got it.

be warned 20" rims are heavy, so performance will suffer, possibly noticably. also the rims may fill the wheel wells nicely, but as I would suppose cazzz can attest to, that leaves you with reletivly little sidewall, making the ride a bit harsh. alot of the SUVs that have 20" rims still maintain more sidewall than the Z has with 18" rims. also be careful of potholes, or youll be replacing said rims.

I have plenty of performance on them 20's, I have driven the car out of town plenty of times, & if I wanted a smooth ride, I will drive my QX4, so in order to be different, I got 20's, some of you may go & get a big body kit, that is fine with U , works for me.. I still can blow away the majority of the compitition, that is if I were into street racing, (I am not) I am into looks. But, I still am not done, there will be performance modifications. Let me say another thing, all those people that are spending like another $5000 in a stereo, that may be what they are into, but I am sure that the factory radio works, doesn't it? I guess U are gonna tell me that my QX4 doesn't need t.v.s in the visor either, because it will make my visor heavy.

Default No Need 4 me to be mad.

The amount of compliments that I get in a single day, before I even start up the car, could not even equal the amount of people who would think that they are garbage, as a matter of fact, maybe you should call they Wheels & accessories shop that did them, & ask how many people have been calling him & saying that they have seen a plum colored 350Z with 20's & how can they get hooked up. Maybe in your part of the country they don't look cool, but then again, here in Sunny So Cali, I might not like to see a tractor with racing exhaust & racing slicks on it.

Default I am a Photographer

With no kids, no wife no gambling habits, no drug habits, no cigarette habits, no prostitute habits or any of those spare change draining items.. Nor do I drink alcoholic beverages, so I am not paying insurance on a DUI, or have to spend $7.00 per drink out at a club 5 days a week, not paying childcare or tuition, so U can pretty much count all my money on something that U can see..

disclaimer: This statement is not to ridicule or make fun of those people with children, wild women, alcohol, drugs, gambling, smoking, habits. Its sole intent was to show what a few hundred thousand dollars in extra expenses can buy.
