Rims, Rims.Rims...
Will 20's fit on the Coupe? Can I put a wider rim with a deeper lip on the rear? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks.

Ab,
My saleman is going with 20's on the front and 21's on the rear. My rims will be here next Friday, I ordered 245/35/20 all the way around. This set up has been done on several Z's with no rubbing issues. I initially thought going with 20's was a little severe, but the rim I ordered has a dish, combining that and also the car in general as a dwarfing effect on the wheels, my 20's will look like 19's at most. When I say dwarfing effect, the car makes the wheels look smaller than they really are. Right now my factory 17's look like 14's!!

Re: Rims, Rims.Rims...
If you paint the lower sills to match the body it has a lowering affect on the car, and the wheels then look their size. The lips and flares of the lower body become visible and have a dramatic effect on the appearance of the wheels....

Online & JnG,
My apologies, I didn't specify that I had a coupe, so you don't have to paint the bottom sills. But if I did have a sedan, that's one of the the very first things I would do. Also, I've already taken a deposit for the OEM 17's already.
