hey i wuz really wonderin how low i can drop my z on a set of 20's without them rubbing abd my headers scraping. HELP ME PLEEZ LOL

 

Are the 20's already on it? I am surprised you are not rubbing now.

 

no there not on yet. the tires are 255/30/20. i just got em in 2day but i wanna drop it as soon as i put em on.

 

20's are a bit extreme for these cars....probably wont help in the performance department. But if I had to put them on, I would do that first, then judge how much I could lower it after that.....if at all.

 

20s will look horrible man, 17s or 18s or a 17 front 18 back is perfectly fine...dont put 20s on that car.

 

The tire diameter (26.0") is not real big... about the same as the stock (base V8 models) 235/55-16 tires (26.2"). A 20" diameter wheel, with the correct offset, width and tire diameter will not be any more likely to rub than a stock 16" diameter wheel with the stock tires.

As you can see - whether anything will rub depends on the width of the wheels, and the offset (or backspace). Without that info, its not possible to answer the question.

And whether the headers will drag on the ground depends on the specific header - shorties or mids, using a Y-pipe similar to stock will not be any lower than the stock exhaust. Long tubes, on the other hand will be likely to rub with minor lowering. Again, without knowing the specifics of your setup, no one can answer the question.

 

There's a guy on here who has a couple of Camaros slammed on 20's and they look damn good. When done right, there's nothing wrong with 20's on a Camaro.

 

ugh

 

Which headers ? You may need coilovers to get it just right.

 

How about this low? Sorry I dont anything about it.

 

^^^ that **** hot

 

I think I threw up in my mouth. That thing is fricken UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Coilovers with ride height adjustable lower spring seats, air ride, or a combination of the two(that's what I have)!

IMO, you need to determine what's more important to you, show or go!

 

me too, never been a huge fan of the low riders.

 

I saw it on LS1tech. My problem with it is that the rear wheel sits too far forward in the wheel well.
