15x6 enkeis, more of a front wheel drive offset than trx rims so 8 mm spacers will be needed all round
would need to convert to 5 stud, but the show off the brakes real well

oh yeah dodgy camera phone pic as the digital was being used

5 stud conversion so that you can run rims that require spacers?

not worth it in my opinion

 Re: is it worth it?
well ANGE i could cut down another diff thats the right width for these.... but spacers is easier
and with 5 stud i could run any nissan or ford rims

any one know if these can be found in 4 stud? these are the standard rims off a mid 90s mazda 929

well i was saying its not worth converting to five stud for these wheels pictured. especially if you need to run a spacer on them.

now if you wanted to convert to 5 stud so you can run a nissan wheel that fits right and shows off your brakes while looking awesome and making your sedan even more original. then id say yes its worth it. that would be cool

zx 16's maybe?

 Re: is it worth it?
hmmm i wonder what the lowest profile 16 i could get is

to convert the rear its easy, just gotta get some falcon axles cut down.....but front hubs is whats stopping me

not like i would actually convert to 5 stud any time soon though.....got brakes to do, got the ute do to, got an engine to do and the body

 Re: is it worth it?
I reckon when i bought wheel bearings for the 280zx struts the box had the 240,260,280C listed. I know for sure it had stanza, sunny, 180b, 200b listed.

I just did a search on yahoo, stud pattern for 260C is 5x114.3.

 Re: is it worth it?
yes an update....even though these wheels look cool and and light as all hell..........

they are crap, simply because my r32/300zx rear brakes wont fit under them

but i'll still go ahead with the 5 stud, even if i dont use it on my car
