Default 21" Lowenhart LD5's

I'm thinking about going with 21" Lowenhart LD5's. 255/30/21 and 295/25/21 Tires in back with fender rolling. My Z will never be FI or see a race track so i'm not worried about losing performance. I'm tired of seeing the exact same wheel and tire setups on z's so I want to set mine apart from the crowd. To some yes 21's are a little extreme but to me I think it will sit just right and give it a nice look. I'm going for the "High end luxury Sports Coupe" look and until I can get an SL-65 AMG with 21" Lowenharts, my Z will have to do. I hope some of my 20" Boys on here will stick up for me after the flame war begins.

I am surprised no one has flamed you, but here it goes....21 inch rims huh...well at least the size of the rims will match your clueless age!



J/K
I don't flame people for their own style I think it will look kind a big on a Z, but different and at least it will be OG.
Post pics when you have them on

Default yes

toyo and yokahama have the tire, I think that will be nice(lowered), I got hated on for having too big of wheels, and even for posting that I wanted to go 21" (see my 22"tis thread, at the end.), But it will be great, expensive, and one of a kind. btw better have some *****in breakes, cuz' lowenhart's are not light, nor do they have forged centers, they are cast. in my opinion, it would be better to run a maya setup than lowenhart, but the if look is what you want, and only want, go nuts and let them hate (cuz' they will)

Please post pics, I went with 19's because I want a supercharger someday and like to drive fast!!! My main criteria was phat lips, so I got 9.5 and 10.5's! The Z is my first sports car, so I wanted to keep it quick for the phun of it, but I love big rims! Do it!
