New shoes 20"+VIP Stretch+Bullitt Replica's
OK guys, I was on a crazy budget and I wanted something different and crazy.
Bullitt Replica wheels (aka mustang wheels), triple chrome.
(R) 20x10 245/35/20 (+24) 33lbs (wheel only)
(F) 20x8.5 225/35/20 (+24)
The wheels and stretch look 10,000 times better in real life, pics don't do justice.
I'm also on Tanabe springs.
Let me know what you think, good or bad.
Thanks Roni.

No man. Those wheels look more custom to older muscle cars. Thats not what the Z was intended for in my opinion. So don't think I am dissin cuz to each their own Z.

Not my style, but props for trying something different.
I would worry about bending them with such a low profile tire.
Definitely need a BBK now.

that actually doesn't look too bad imo, but as someone said above, i think those are better suited for a domestic. looks good nonetheless, although the contact patch on the rear looks kinda slim

The stretch is nice, but the wheels don't look right on a Z. Not bad though, but not nice. Thumbs up for trying something different?

Hey Tony, maybe it's a Siebon that someone sold him, and never took care of the agreement they made on the difference.

agree with Rickdogg.
The stretch looks hot. That stretch is perfectly safe.

I would def never do that but w/e you like. That tire just looks dumb on our cars b/c we have such big fenders. W/e it was cool to try and be different I guess.
