on 13 x 7 rims im running 175 70 r13 up front and 205 60 r13 down back. ideally would like wider up front but $$$ for tyres. On another note, would rims from an n13 nissan pulsar fit on
the 1200 ute or would the pcd be wrong. A guy at work has a set of 13 x 7 csa's with two good 185 70 r13 yokohamas and two worn ones. I would swap the 205 60 r13 to the csa alloys but
scarred they will rub or the rims will have the wrong pcd and the tyres will fowl the body or suspension. $200 the lot. This looks good as my two rear rims are slightly buckled.

205 or 215-50=13 tires are excelent tires for 13x7 and 13x8 wheels.60 or 70 tires tend to go too tall and rub up against fenderwells and other parts. Check the tire rack site at
www.tirerack.com for tires and you will see you can find 195-50-13. 205-50-13 and 215 50 13 in a couple of brands like sumitomo and t/a bf goodrich among others. If you want to lower your
car,50 series is a must and 13-50's work well.15 inch tires are too big for this cars,in my personal opinion do not look nice,and the car does not enjoy the benefit of a lowered suspension
because it can not be lowered enough unless you are a body specialist in which case a new and larger fender-tire-well is put in place,or else cheat yourself with one of those aero
fiberglass kits wrap arounds that all they do is wrap your car in fiberor plastic parts,anything but lower the car for the weight and air factor you are looking for. It is just my
opinion,thanks and enjoy your Datsun.

14 inch wheels are Ok,I do use 14x8rear wheels with 205-55-14 and front 14x7 with 195-45-14 and works fine,and looks good,but my first choice is 13 inch size for this car,which lowers the
car more and has more rubber on the road. I personally do not like small datsuns with 15 or 16 or even 16 or larger wheels,the car just can not sport those larger diameters because it is a
small car. A late model honda,for example,is made with a very large wheel well,it will look weird with 13 inch tires because it was made for larger tires /wheels. It is a case of fitting
the right vehicle.Plus always a touch of personal taste. Good luck panameno,yo soy peruano.

I'm pretty sure that the N13 Pulsar is the same PCD as the Pintara and other 4 stud nissans of the late 80s.
I'd say 95% sure.
