10x20"alloy wheels

[Anonymous]

Hi all im just about to bite the bullet and get some 10x20" alloys with 255/30 tyres all round does any body no anyone whos fitted this size to theres
I no they go on the rears but unsure about the fronts some shops are saying yea some say they're not sure and none are sure of the offset
The 1 person i no of are using 235/35 8.5 et40 and 275/30 10 et30 but this is lowered 30 mill.
Any help much apreciated.

It really depends on the offset of the new wheels. Factory offset for 19's is +27.

You can space out the factory 19's at the front with 10mm spacers and rears with 12mm, some have done 12mm front and 15mm rear but this comes down to whether the car has been lowered or not and suspension travel.

So if you do your calculations you may or may not have a problem, as you have to take into consideration the additional width.

Keep us posted and don't forget to share with us the result, including on our FB page

For any spacers and wheel bolts for the spacers, we sell them all for the RCZ:

Why use 10" width wheels if you only gone use 255 width tyres ?
Noboby wil see or know that they are 10" width, they will only see 255 width tyres

If you want to do something special why not but on 9x21 inch wheels

This is an example of an RCZ on 21 inch wheels

This you don't see every day

I like the look of wide wheels has ive had this on a few of my cars , the arches on the z need a good filling.

 

[DanRo]

Yes but there is no reason for 10" wheels If you only use 255mm tyres

255 is the absolute minimum for 10inch width wheels, but ideally it should be 265 or 275.

If you get the right offset, they will look pretty good on the back but I dont think 10s would fit properly in the front arches as they will either rub or will stick out from the arches.

 

[DanRo]

If you don 't change the offset, 10" will also stick out
I have 9,5" in the rear on mine with 265 tyres and original offset ET27
There is maybe on or two mm space left

255 tyres will also fit on 9,5" wheels (even on 9") so again why use 10"

Once you bring the wheel to the edge and lower the car (not really necessary), no need for such a wide wheel on the RCZ. At the end of the day the design of the wheel is what is looked at. But it's all about the owner wanting what they want.

I had sretched 235 on a 10j wheel on my m3 on the front but dont want to go that extreme with this wheel.

Looking like i will put 8.5 x 20 f and 10x 20 r.

 

[DanRo]

My advice use 9" in the front and 9,5" in the rear
With original offset
The wheels fit perfect With the body

Do it however you want to do it

Do you have an idea of what wheel you want or style?

That at the end of the day is the most important part of choosing the wheel, other than it has the right bolt-pattern. Not all designs can fit the RCZ or come in variations of widths and diameters, of course bespoke wheels can be purchased.

Good luck in your hunt for your perfect wheel and let us know what you end-up with.

Chears guys will post pics when done
Had all the silver wrapped black,de-badged and fly eye on the lights fitted last month so cant wait now for alloys,remap and air filter like a big kid i am

my last car i got in total vauxhall magazine and on stands at shows but dont think im going to go that far with the z its such a nice car already, with a few mods.

 

[Abzynthe]

Its not hard to get on stands with the Z

A magazine on the other hand is very difficult unless you have a million horsepower and a gold plated engine. I think people are just jealous lol.

Cant wait to see it
