What are the largest width wheels you can get on a Z32 without going over the 16" diametre? From reading I think it's 8.5" at the back of UKDM TT models?

 

Is there a thread with the technical details indluding diametre, offset and width?

 

Thanks in advance! :)

Sorry, I meant what standard Z wheel sizes! :D

 

I have a feeling this should be in the tech section... :o

LOL, probably should be, but hey ho :D

 

I don't know a definate answer i'm afraid, but i don't think its 8.5", if i were to take an educated guess i would say the UK rear wheels are closer to 7.5".

 

I'm sure a zed expert will be along shortly :)

Bloody hell :eek: , learn something new every day!

 

Well there you go, i said an expert would come :D

yes, Uk rears are 8.5

I'm looking for a set in the FS section - probably a noob question but do I have to have a certain post-count or something to post there?

 

Any idea of the offsets?

I believe stock 8.5 rear offset is either 35mm or 38mm, they stick to far inside the arches as standard anyway.

With my car being a UK, it had 8.5" on the rear as normal. I got another set of 8.5" rears and put them on the front, had no problems doing that.

Is that the equivalent of "paid up"?

Don't suppose you're "upgrading" anytime soon are you? :)

Already have done a couple of times, the old wheels went sometime back.

Are you looking to shift the rear Z wheels on?

Jpo - i have an old set of stock alloys for sale that need to be re-furbed really. Tyres are bald though!!...I still have stock wheels on my Z (re-furbed set) and have a set of 18" wheels awaiting refurb. Pics are in the for sale section and i'm after reasonable offers. Also Loads of Family in Eire and I also have a mate who works on th stenna ferry from Fishgaurd to Rosslare so could probably get them your side of the water quite easily...

@ TubZ, I can't reply to that thread cause of my post count I believe? Are they the UK Z TT wheels or Jap? (i.e are they the 8x16 & 8.5x16)

I thought they were UK as my Car is UK, However when i read my old for sale post last night to bump it i noticed someone had commented that they look Jap Spec... so i will check later and come back to you.... You're only registered and not subscribed at the moment so i can't PM you..but feel free to e-mail in the address i sent you!

Edited by TubZ

Just measured them and i'm not sure exactly but i'd say the rears are 9" wide and the fronts 8" so unless their is only a slight difference they are UK wheels!!...

remove tel no.

I have 20 inch wheels on my zed in the USA.

John,

 

Have measured from the inner hub face and reckon on about 157.5mm (see pics 82&83)

 

I also measured from the outer hub face less the thickness of the 'Z' plastic insert and this is about 235mm (see pics 80&81)

 

Forgive the quality these are off my phone.
