Now i HAVE searched the offset threads so im just curious if i wanted to run
a 20x10 w/ 35mm spacing on ALL corners could that be possible with out serious issues ? if any one has ever ran that!

heres the wheel spec:

Size:20 X 8.5" front &20 X 10.0"rear

Bolt Pattern: 5 X 112

Hub Bore: 66.6

Offset:32 mm front& 35 mmrear

our bolt pattern is 5 x 114.3

So no I don't think those will work.

i found some that are 35mm offset 20x10 with a bolt pattern of 114.3! that worked out great! but i think it should be fine with that kind of offset...

Nope, they won't work. Their bolt pattern, as pointed out above, is slightly smaller in diameter than ours.

A +35 offset will work. Your wheels will look a little tucked. Just make sure your hub centric rings are the correct ones.

If you want to know more about offset and what it is/means, you can't get too much better than this article on a Honda Tuning website.

5x112 isnt BMW, thats an audi/vw bolt pattern which as stated is wrong. The hub bore of 66.6 is also wrong because our cars use a 70.5 and hubcentric rings still wont save you.

As far as the 20x10 +35 you could run that, but it will be pretty flush so you may have to run like a 255 tire with that setup to reduce rubbing.

There's a guy on SVTP who has BMW wheels on his '03 Cobra. They look killer. Don't know what he did to make them fit, but I know they weren't just a bolt on affair.

20--AUDI-A6-A8-Q5-VW-CC-AVANT-GARDE-WHEELS-RIMS-----for-sale_400163623824.jpg


Advant Garde wheels
They look like the rtr rims but with more concaveness and they come in a 20 x10 wich was another reason i wanted them, but like peetie said the only ones they make 20s for is audi, the bmws are 19s, and the Only one close for a mutang fittment is for a nissan 370z wich i think COULD work but it might be too much trouble....even with spacers on the rear

If they are 370z fitment spacers will not solve your problem.

I really dont like the linea wheel since im assuming your talking about the LC818 wheel? I think one of the members on here has them , i might just call advant and ask them, i do like the rota wheels!

Linea Corse Wheels are waaaaaaaay better than rotas.

yup, Im running wheels with Z fitment, they stick out past the fender...

At one point i wanted to try and run an M6 wheel on my GT but never got around to finding them and test fitting, would look awesome.

Wow, those look really good! Would look sick on your car if you could get them to fit...

Ever wonder if someone else in the world is doing the same exact thing as you? I was just looking at these and wondering the same exact question just a couple days ago, still have the tabs open as a matter of fact.

I do like that they have better options than the RTR's and I really liked the 18's but they didn't match the bolt pattern so I wasn't sure if they would be worth the trouble. I love the RTR's but I'd rather stay 18's or even 20's to find a good drag radial, along with running a 10" rear wheel.

That Breyton wheel is really gorgeous and they make one without the silver strip. Unfortunately they only make wheels for BMWs.
