Hi guys. I'm a new member and this is my first post. I have a 1991 2 seater Zed. Just wondering if anyone knows what the biggest rims you can put on this car without any modifications? Also, can I have some feedback on Tempetyres? They seem to have a good selection of wheels. Do you guys recommend them?
a search will tell you your answers on size,just type in rims in the forum search bar,and tempe are great,i got mine from there,very helpful,no dramas at all ive got 18 x 8 and 18 x 9 deep dish,but what you got to ask yourself is do you have the cash to fit good quality wide tyres,they are very expensive once you go past 18's in size or 265's in width
No zed listed Thanks hot300zx but the nissan zeds are not listed on their search facility. Thanks for the feedback tho!
i think he was referring to a search on our site, 20s can fit on no mods, but need to be sure you have the right offsets and tyre size
yeah watch out for tyres, I had the 'cheapest' 245/35/19 tyres I could find fitted on saturday, and they were $249 per tyre, luckily for me I only needed two.. but take this into account when looking for big ass wheels
Hey mate, My exprience with temple tyres. As interstate buyer was very unpleasent three months of phone calls...just kept getting same bs answers.....finally just told them to shove it ....two phone calls to St George tyres had my new wheels & tyres two days latter :biggrin: ..... check out this site www.stgeorgetyres.com.au
Why don't Aussie web sites give prices on tyres, I have a set of 19s that I would like to bring with me when I emigrate but can't find any prices to see if its going to be too expensive to run on them.
rollin on 18's Ive got 18 by 8 and 18 by 9's , but im thinking of buying a set of 20's for the summer months. cos 20's are gangsta yo
anything bigger than 19s is waaaaaaaaaaaay to overdone on a zed imo check pics to see what i mean the 300 is such a low car adding 20's would only add to the height and affects handling which makes it look like a pair of rollerskates the key to getting the biggest/best sized rims on a car is get ones that fill the whole wheel arch 19s do that perfectly and going above 18s even is a harsh sacrifice of ride quality for appereance. for example 18s on 300 look about the same size as 20's on a chrysler 300c
Illegal eagle ...... so is everything else on my ride. I think 20's look tight. there is at least one person here who has 20's and i like it
technically no bigger than 15mm larger tyre diameter. and 25mm width son 18s with extra low profile would be okay however u could get a tyre placard from a 1995 stillen Z which came with 17s stock.
Thanks! And chrome wheels? Thanks for all the feedback guys. Can anyone recommend a good wheels/tyres place in Perth. Also, I've heard some chrome wheels start peeling in time? What's a good brand for chrome wheels?
i reckon its what kinda ride your lookin to own, all show n no go or the other way around. personally i spent a few dosh buying volk's for my zed 17x8 n 17x10 on the rear 2 piece rims, they look tough n are made for racing n also look good when the guy i've smoked at the lights is starrin at the tough ass rear end :biggrin: :biggrin: haha but yeah its up to you
yep,yes prices lol :bash: :bash: (but i wouldnt buy nankang,worst tyre on the market,and cheapest ,they are slicks in the wet and massive road noise in the dry ) http://www.tempetyres.com.au/products_closeup.asp?part=&part_no=18
I'm looking to replace my rear tyres Bridgestone Potenza G3 265/40/17's but was advised that Bridgestone don't make them anymore The closest they could do was the Pirelli's for $595 each Although i wouldnt have expected the G3's to be any cheaper.
