z34_nut Posted September 12, 2003 Report Posted September 12, 2003 i just received a set of Pirelli 245/50/ZR16 tires, and i was woundering if i would have clearance issues with either the rear or front wheel well. another thing with my tires, i have 03 impala wheels. i had to offset with spacers, 5/16. must keep in mind that my wheels are located further in the hub then stock z34 wheels. Personally, i think they would be fine up front, but in back i might have a problem with swaybar clearance, can anybody help? one more thing, the wheel width in inches is 10.5 vs. stock 8.5. if they do mount, however, i will be more then happy to show some pictures.

chronic139 Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 03 impala wheels are not 10.5 inches wide and stock z34 wheels arent 8.5 inches wide. Quote

z34_nut Posted September 16, 2003 Author Report Posted September 16, 2003 thanks for the comment, fresh paint last week on another note, i called around various auto shops, and tire stores, they all said i would need a 7-8 inch wheel. oh well, i can live with 225's. i got a hell of a deal on S rated tires, so i'm gonna run em till there bald.
