I believe, from previous reading (If I'm wrong someone correct me) but they are set of BMW wheels. Some of their new (2000 and newer) wheels are absolutely awsome.

Re: Need Pics Of 18"19" and 20" wheels on Camaro

Could you guys with 19's or 20's please let us know what offsets you used?? I am looking at a set of 20 inch Zinik Z12 Mazottis in black for my 1990 RS but my wheel mechanic reckons they wont fit as the rim may rub on the front strut. I don't really want to go as low as 18 if possible.

My car has been lowered 1 inch also, so hopefully that won't be a problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as he's getting a set of blank 18's specially drilled to fit my car this week and i'd rather go bigger if possible. (We can't get the correct stud pattern here in Australia so we drill blanks to fit)

Cheers
John

im not a fan of big wheels on muscle cars but 20 irocs look damn good on an iroc i would put 20s on an iroc just because they have that look to them that they can take it. i'lll let you know your wheels space is going to get very hard to fit nice tires under there

Re: Need Pics Of 18"19" and 20" wheels on Camaro

i am looking at a set of 18 inch rims for my camaro. the ones i am looking at are 18x9.5 fronts with the correct offset and backspacing to fit a fourth gen. i know that when we take a two inch adapter it corrects everything. will these fit on my 91 with said adapter given that they will fit a fourth gen? thanks

Re: Need Pics Of 18"19" and 20" wheels on Camaro

Most of the replicas I've seen are 8" wide. That's a 245, maybe 255mm wide tire at most, especially on a larger diameter wheel that'd require less sidewall. That being said, with the right size tire, you shouldn't have any rubbing. Keep offset to about "0mm" , bolt pattern to 4.75" and overall wheel and tire height around 26" and you should be ok.

thanks man Yeah it looks like I’m gonna go with the 20 for sure. So 255/35/20 would be good all the way around with no problems?

I'd go 245/30/20. ...that give you an overall height of 25.8" Stock was right about there. Just a hair under 26". ....and with such a small (30) sidewall, you're going to be limited on how wide you can go. I'd think 245 would be about it, but that's not a final answer, just my 2 cents.

I think 18 and smaller you can say the car has wheels. 19 and larger it's more like the wheels have a car.

I agree. Personally, I like 17", but there are certainly several benefits to an 18. -and most designs don't look TOO big. But I agree, 19 and 20 just don't seem to "fit".

I very much agree. I like my 18" wheels, but for sure, I would not go any bigger in diameter
