Rim Hoarder question

[blkcofy]

I swap rims like new pairs of shoes and it's catching up with me. Traded my 2010 550 Gran Tursimo for a 2014 M6 GC. I have the stock 20's rims (summer) and recently put on 19's rims (winter).

Unfortunately I kept my summer 20's Foose rims from my GT. Had them refurbished and powder coated and they would look fantastic on my M6. I'd hate to get rid of them.

Any chance they would fit? 20x8.5 & 20x10 Foose Legend SS COPPER 5x120 +35/+40 w/ 245-40-20 & 275-35-20. I imagine the tires won't work, but is the offset too off for the rims to fit?

Thanks!

OEM 20 inch wheel specs are:

20x9.5 et31
20x10.5 et19

OEM tires are:
265-35-20
295-30-20

I cannot advise on how to make it work...but I figure you needed to original specs first to see how far off you are. It doesn't appear the fronts will work at all if you try to stretch OEM tires over a 8.5 wheel. Again, I'm not an expert, it'll either won't work or look funky based on my rudimentary understanding.


Secondly, this is just my opinion, and I know tastes are different and it's your money...but if the wheels you're talking about are these.... https://www.google.com/search?biw=12....0.Y_qaFN7pid0


please don't put them on the M6...

So I did some more research via a few wheel & tire calculators. The FOOSE rims from the Gran Turismo will theoretically fit even with the offset. I'll have 9mm more clearance for the inside struts and the tires will be 27mm retracted from the current M6 20s. I have to get all new rubber to max out the rim widths. 255/35 and 285/30s. All wider than the winter tire 19s I have on there now, so not totally outlandish looking.

As for the style of the more muscular Foose rims on the M6...you guys might be right. Love the color but it might be too beefy...

Now, remove that and let's look at those pretty 443s, 343s or 601s.

Color combo does look nice! ... but kinda takes on a Dodge Charger look (no offense)...

Hey look like were neighbors! I'm in northeast cincinnati.

Wait you got 19’s to fit on the front of the M6??
