Hey guys. Its been a while I was dealing with rim sizes so I have a question here. I am rebuilding a Camaro 5,7 right now and on the list is a Twin Turbo Kit.

So I need sime big rubber in the back to get the power on the street. I was thinking about 20" rims but I dont know how wide they have to be to fir 315 or 325 tires. Can somebody tell me some rim sizes for those sizes of tires please?

Thank you

the sidewall will be so short on a 20" rim , you wont have any real traction.

for that width tire, your looking at something around 11-12" wide, 11 can fit with some minor cutting, the 12's wont without a minitub

to get the power down, you should consider a 15x8 or 10" rim with drag radials

Yeah, believe me I thought about that millions of times. I like both versions. Nice looking rims with 20" and drag monster tires on the other hand..

Are there any sites for drag wheels? There are lots og bullshit websites about rims out there

if you put 20" rims on a thirdgen i will personally light your car on fire......sorry but i think it looks tacky as hell and those that do it should have their car taken.

what you think about what other people want to do with their cars doesn't interest anybody. that sounds just like the people that say that if somebody wants clear taillights for a camaro, should buy a civic.

be contructive or zip it.

IROCS look the best stock. I wish they made some 17 inch iroc rims though (88-90 style)

for you, but not for other people. i am creating a camaro that everybody will want to have when im done. taste is taste. i dont discuss that, especially not in forums where weirdos like travis hang out because they have no friends and feel the need to tell others what they should like and not, because their parents never loved them

back to topic please.

i didnt do much on it the past weeks. i didnt really had time. but it will be moved to the new place where we gonna finish the body (roll cage, fender wider and all new openings) and paint job. the dad of my friend is body pro and is gonna help me with the rest. it will take a few weeks because right now i have too much work with the business but i will update the other topic as soon i have news.

So....are you going to light my car on fire? lol 20's can look fine on a thirdgen if the car is done right....I've got a 19/20 combo on my car along with air ride and it looks fine..not ghetto or anything at all. There has to be a reason why my car has been in Camaro Performers and GMTHP magazine



Anyhow, for what your wanting to do...I don't think 20's wheels in the rear wouldn't be your best choice. Like stated above....you wouldn't get much traction with such a low profile tire. You could just have a set of so 16's or something whenever you go to the track...bolt them on a go. Just a thought.

PPR787

yes. i made my decision as u can see in my last post. they might be cheaper too and i have less work on the body. the one big point against 35mm tires is, that i live in puerto rico and one bbig hole or crater can **** up my rims as well. streets can really suck here due the tropical climate.

but i would like to see some pics of your ride. can you show me a link?
