#1 wheely big problem
Quinn Posted on: 2002/11/13 12:07
sorry about the lame title!!
I NEED to find some new wheels for my 1200 coupe coz i sold the ones on it coz i needed the money so its up on bricks and i want it down! I originally thought of minilights but theyre an english style and i want old school jap to go with the car. i dont want new mags unless they look old styles. they need to be 13x6 no bigger and i have no idea what the different types are called and how they look so i was wondering if u guys could make some much needed sugestions.
cheers

I would go for 13 inch stansa rims with some stock hubcaps and white wall tyres!
Seriously!
My 1000 is going to have 15inch rims with polished Cadilac hubcaps ( with the badge removed) with 2inch whitewalls!

RS Watanabe makes some wheels that look like the Minilites, only the spokes are a little flatter. I see these on alot of 510's and 1200's in Japan. They look plenty sharp, too.

Here's a silver 4dr 1200 with them on it.

Classic old school is the "slotted mag". Mine had Shelby American 12" wheels.

These have 5 oval shaped slots around the circumference. One of the most popular styles in the 70s, and it's easy to find 12", 13" and 14" to fit Datsun. I even saw some 12s at the Portland Swap Meet this spring.
