New Rims For The Coupe


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

Car goes into the painters tonight and the wheels have been ordered.

Will be rolling the guards before I drop it off.

I know not many people on here will be a fan but thought i would update with the progress anyway.

Wheels are Zenetti Mascurade in 20x8.5 on the fronts and 20x10's on the rear.

These should fill up the guards and are not too over the top.

Wheels come with removable accents on the spokes, these will be painted the same colour as the car. will probably drive it without them all the time and just put on for show or cruises etc.

Just out of curiosity, how much are the wheels setting you back? Fairly certain I could find a set of used 20" jap wheels for a similar price.

p/s yes I am a wheel whore. :laugh:

Personally, not a fan of the wheels, but going off what you described in the other thread about the paint, i think it would work and will look quite good

What offsets you going with? reason i ask is I know a lot of the Ozzy wheels don't have offsets ideal for these cars.

Curious how much as well, cause as an example i got my Volk SF Challenge for around $3k from Japan, 19" with rubber worth $900 per corner, and over 80% tread. Oh and not a mark on the wheels.

Took a fair bit of time to find them, but definitely worth it.

Oh and the most import thing - Pics when it's done :-)

Hey the rims look good... However you dont need to roll up your guard because they will fit. i have zenetti kaiotik 20 by 8.5 and 20 by 10's at the back. However i had to add spacers to get the right off set. Especially for the front. I reckon the best fit would be 20 by 9.5 front and 20 by 10.5 rears.... with an off set of about 20-25.. Im not sure about the offset on my rims or yours but somewhere between 20-25 should be good.

Whatever you do, just don't get really low profile tyres... lol. It is a pain, from spotting when the tyre is punctured to scraping the outer rim due to tight roundabouts or what not raises on the ground.

Yeh.. i know what you mean I had a flat tyre and drove on it without realising that it was flat. I had to replace the tyre which was still new :--(
