Guest drifter Posted January 20, 2004 Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 what tires would it take for a 20 inch wheel thats 10.5 inches wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grease monkey Posted January 20, 2004 Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 a fucking big one proally like a 315(possiabily wider)-what ever ridiculously tiny aspect ratio they make them in (35 or some shit)-20 Thats my best guess, as I don't specialize in remembering shit like that, call a local tire store and tell them what kind of wheels you've got, then ask what are choices of tires, and what size are they? They'll be able to tell you for sure, hell it's their job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted January 20, 2004 Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 Need more info... Lots of different 20" tires would fit on a 10.5 inch wheel. A 275x would be just over 10.5 inches wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copperhead Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 why do you want such wide tires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
still2hi Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 do a search for exotic tire dealers. the sizes you are going to need is anywhere from 295/45/20 to 325/50/20. they will be expensive prob. $250 and up per tire. try this company Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest drifter Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Originally posted by copperhead: why do you want such wide tires? beacause i can get the wheels pretty cheap besides that a vette with 20's on the back and 18's on the front would be cool ... i wonder if they will fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berto Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 dunlop makes the viper tires, there are probably several other tires u can get in that size. depends what tire will fit on your car and on the rim. its going to be expensive i think 35 serires is the lowest you can go, and thats a damn rough ride, just letting you know. call up discount tire they have everything in the computer for fitting your car with that size rim.

recklessOP Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 rims that large (and heavy) will probably hurt performance. get something lighter. 18s are plenty big. 17s are relatively inexpensive and they clear most brakes... http://www.mr2ownersclub.com/images/smilies/twocents.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ranger_Man Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 18s in front and 20s in rear would not be cool. it would be borderline useless more than anything else. not only would it look retarded since your wheels would have two inches of difference, but add on to that the fact that virtually all 19+" rims are retardedly overweight. ALSO, http://home.columbus.rr.com/aaron240/tutbling.jpg rims on a c4 vette with some strap on wing is utterly asinine. oh yea, im graemlins/offtopic.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest drifter Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 the 20's are Z06 wheels. I dident think they would be that heavy? by the way beer guy there would only be 1 inch of verticle difference. think about it dip shit. and 1 inch would hardly be noticed graemlins/slap.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lustful Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 Matt honestly where are you going to be getting z06 wheels.... and why don't you spend your money on getting a new 02 sensor so i can bring my laptop and finally finish tuning that bitch.... Plus you need to finish putting the wing on there because summer will be here before you know it ..... we still planning on the spring break car festival of ripping them apart and putting them back together again?

Guest lustful Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 oh and until you have seen the wing with the way he wants to mount it... i dunno i wouldn't say much.. it just looks so kickass once you see it in peson i was doubtful myself but it just is righteous.

He didn't say it would jack your car up 2 inches: "your wheels would have two inches of difference", in other words, 2" larger diameter.
