hey everyone i am just wondering would these rims fit on a datsun 1200 ute i'm pretty keen on buying them?

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/15-ENKEI92 ... em19d1ebdfc4#ht_595wt_965

they will fit but be outside the gaurds unless you have flairs.. they are just a bit too wide

And depending on what your front struts are they may hit the strut or the tire may hit the strut and need spacers which are not legal


The best fitting wheel for you datsun will need to be a zero offset or up to +30 not negative for backspace but depends on width for +30, then it depends on your strut and the tub on the rear.. if its a sadan more then 15x7 will probally hit the inner wheel arch needing spacers to clear..

and if the car is lowered you will need at least 175 or 195 low profile to fit under the gaurds and not scrap when turning

check out these links for a better understanding of how they will fit and what offsets

just as a note i am running 15x5.5 with +25 on the front and 15x6 on the rear with +35 and they fit clean in the gaurds with 175/70
Generally you want a +30 offset wheel for tires up to 175-wide but a +25 works fine

I also have stock 1200 struts not lowered and just refitted leafs and fit fine

here is a pic of my ute so you can see how mine fit

Mate you have helped so much thanks heaps

I have ordered 15x6.5 +16 for my fronts and x7 +15 for my rears, which I think will be fairly spot on for handling while as low as possible without flares on a sedan.

What wheels u go townie?
