Wheel Setup

[bdn3d]

Hey Guys just wanted to see what you thought... I just got off the phone with a guy from Forgestar ( a fellow Z owner) and I am looking at purchasing a set of Forgestar F10s and although I just found out that they only come in 20 inch he said that they would fit. The set up and link are below let me know what you guys think?

Please note I do not plan on ever tracking it and I want a pretty agressive set up.
1inch drop on H&R sport Springs
20x9+35 on 245-30-20
20x10.5+30 on 285-25-20

What do I think?! Those wheels?! 20"?! Low offset?! 285's in the back?!






.baller bro'. and you better be LOW to pull off that hella flush big wheel.

im gonna say its doable, but the rears will be a tight fit without some camber

HA! nice! Still debating though I am not sure if it will be too agressive.

anyone have any pictures of there set ups? Any aggresive stances?? I am looking for the back wheels to sick out just a bit, and make the back of the car look wide as shit...

I'm pretty sure 285 in the rear will not fit in your wheel well with your 20's, you are probably going to want to have a little stretch in your tire to be flush, say 255 in the rear b/c of your drop. Unless you never hit a bump or want that sittin on the rim/wheel look.

i was thinking that too, but with that 25 series sidewall i think he might be able to clear.

while not an ///m, stigj has a seriously aggressive stance front and rear with gobs of neg camber. you might check out his thread.

Crfine use to run TE 37s in the following sizes,
Front- 19x8.5 et30 w/ 245/35/19
Rear- 19x10.5 et25 w/ 275/35/19

Similar offsets to yours but with slightly skinnier rears. His fitment was off and they rubbed where the rear fender meets the bumper. They are not exactly what you plan to be running but its a good point of reference.

widest, id bet money you can fit 11.5 in the rear, maybe 12 but youd have to take out the plastic fender liner and run maybe -3 in the rear with a stretched tire. front you can fit maybe a 10.5 but you have the same fender liner issue.

believe me or not, its your car.

references - ive run 18x10 with 265's all day no rubbing, with a 15mm spacer in the rear. ive also seen an 11 in the rear and a 10 in the front.

good luck

OT but I have to ask: why get the M if you're stuffing 20s on it?

Wyatth I actually have debated this very fact, This is my first M and I know if I go to a 20' wheel I could sacrifice a little bit of performance, but call me vain, because I want an agressive look. This is why I posted this topic. I found the wheel but they only offer it in a 20' which was not my first choice. I would rather get a 19' and lower the car by one inch, which should give me the look I want, without the sacrifice. My issue is though I want a multispoke step lip wheel and this is the only one I can find, which from what I was also just told, has been discontinued.
I posted this awhile back

it shows a picture of the wheels I want in gold, I will have mine powdercoated gunmetal... Any suggestions for a different wheel that would be compareable? Keep in mind I can get the set for less than 1800.

thanks

[dorifto88]

something comparable.

19x10 and 19x11.

105mm and 131mm lips.

WOW I love those, thanks for the info! The spoke are a tad bit small but I definitely think you just found my new wheels. I am wanting to get them show in an anodized gunmetal, thanks man! I will let him know if I decide to go that route...
