The "Will it fit?" thread

Here's what I got from one calculator. Going from a 265 on a 9.5 +40 to a 285 on a 10" +40 would bring the tire 6.4mm closer to the suspension.

I'm curious, what is it that make those look funky?

So, does that apply to all sports cars with 20's or just the z?

Just the Z on 20's. The proportions are all out of what with 20's. Just my .02.

But a 911 which doesn't have that dissimilar body style than the z looks fine with 21's in the rear and 20's in the front?

911 GT3, GT2, and GT3 RS look good. Our cars look like DONKS on 20's if you don't lower them way down and you don't want to do that. It's the body of the car to ground clearance that makes ours look like DONKS if not done properly. It's not the fender to tire clearance that is a concern. You would look better on 19's and the car lowered just a smidgen.

I was thinking the same thing. 20s look good on the Z.

I'd say just cars that aren't lowered enough... Yours, for example, has 20s but still has fender gap due to the modest lowering and low profile tires.

On the front I wore through the fender liner where the tab is and the rear I could barely get a finger between the tire and fender. If I had 19's on there it would have had a lot more fender gap because I can't lower it any more due to my driveway approach. That's why I put 20's on there. It give's me about 3/4" more ground clearance and lets me lower it a little more than if it had 19's.

18 v 19 v 20 it doesn't matter
comes down to purpose and execution

18's can look badass:


as can 19's




and of course 20s
