Vossen CV7

Theres a guy selling his vossen cv7 on craigslist, 20x10.5 et25. what would i have to do to get these on my car and not have it look like a 4x4. Because 20's are big and im lowered and i like the ride height if i have to go lower * which is something i dont want due to rubbing. Would i have to stretch the tire?

From what you're stating, stay clear of anything over 19" and wider than 9.5". And even that might be a bit much.

Generally, 20's are a tad too big for the TL. And it definitely doesn't help that they are 10.5" wide and +25.

Sounds like a nightmare fitment if you ask me.

significant fender work would be required. that rim will poke nearly 2" more than the OEM rim

AS stated in other 20" threads/post they look like A$$. I personally think some,I mean
some 20's look alright with the right drop and off set.

Even if they were 19s the front would be too aggressive for probably 98% of us. Some people enjoy that challenge, but 10.5 +25 up front would be extreme.

alright well thanks guys. the last thing i want is to do more work that i already dont wanna do, cause im so lazy.

But the next thing i wanna do is wheels and im leaning towards :

Varrsteon ES3 18x9.5 et 30 *i would run a et22 but that sounds like alot of fender work.
XXR 530 18x8.75 et 33
Advan 310 19x8.5 et35

you guys think these wheels will work with the setup i have, i dont want anymore rubbing, right now i have the stockies on with a 245/40/17 i messed up when i got tires, should of got 235 and i kick my self eveytime i see got a bigger tire, because i rub all the time. and also what tire size would i have to run to get any of those wheels to fit?

and my car currently sits like this...

Sounds like you should leave these wheels to someone with a G35 or 350z!
