Default Pics of Z's with TSW Snettertons style

Considering the TSW Snettertons, really like that style of rim. Anyone have a Z with similar style rims that would like to share. Or suggestions on a good brand for some deep dish that are not $4000 Volks. Thank you s

Yeah, not a huge fan of chrome either. I would do the hypersilver if I got them. Is 20's a bad ride for the Z. I was thinking 20x8.5 front with 20x10 rear and want a pretty flush look. Not too aggressive. The offset for the fronts is 20 or 40 and the rear is 25 or 40. What do you think?

NO chrome, NO 20's! If you want flush, lip you're looking to spend some dough, so save up and do it right...the 1st time!

Well. Most people say that 20's are too big, bad ride, mess up your speedo etc. So usually 19 or 18 is the way to go. I however think that you should go with what you like, considering the pros and cons of your decision. HOWEVER, if you do decide to go with the 20's you can do much better in terms of width i think, i mean my 18's are wider than the 20's your thinking of getting.


I have 18x 9/10 (f/r). If you go with 20's try maybe 20 x 10/11 (f/r). That way youll get a ginormous (and for all you english majors, yes thats a real word) lip if you get some good offsets, and if your upgrading wheels, why not go aggressive?

And chrome... If you bought it, there wouldnt be any left for the escalades and h2's.

I guess 20's in chrome could be considered cool if you sport your front teef in gold

I have 19's, but I wouldn't go any bigger than that. And I won't rehash the chrome issue.

To be honest, I think the chrome would be outstanding on the Z. I'm not sure why all the hatred for chrome.

No chrome

Get wide wheel width

Pick better offsets

20" (up to you).

Thanks for the input guys. So the consensus from Z owners is chrome is a no go, huh? I have the Z in chrome silver and think a staggered set with silver and a chrome lip would look the best. What is a good offset? May go with 19s then.
