I ran 14X6 rims on my 1000 race coupe that QIK1000 has now, 2 styles, one was Bathurst style mags, the other were from a 200B Aspen.Neither had problems with hitting inner wheel arches or upper or lower control arms. with some 175/60x14's on them, they'd give the impression of a big wheel with a low sidewall height. Photos in the racing section of the photo album should show both styles. I was using 185/60x14's, so the effect with the narrower tyres would be similar.

Oh and i only paid about $600 for my Wats off sidedrought from the forums here. No tyres and they looked like new, needed paint and a polish but that was easy enough. But that was cheap and i feel i was lucky to snap em up!

hmm dont think so. They are 13x7 +12 on the front but about a 10mm spacer.
I flared the guards a little, but dont think i had to beat the footwell in. i run 185/60R13 up front and 205/60R13 in the rear. With the rears with exactly 0 offset i recon i could go another inch inwards, and they dont hang out of the guards either. The fronts hang out about a inch.

Yeh 15s fit. They look too big in my opinion though. Kue1000 has a set of 15s on his blue sedan. Theres pics somewhere, have a look in the perth events section in the photo album.
i had 14" 260Z mags on my thou with 165/55R14 tyres and they didnt rub anywhere. Now i have 13x7 RS Watanabes with 0 offset and they are great!

i have a set of 15" with a completly wrong offset, but looking at them kinda lined up it looks like 15s might go but, i dont want to buy new rims unless i am a little closer to being sure
