hey man, sorry this took so long. camera wasn't working. anyway, here they are.







the front wheels are pretty flush, but thats with a spacer. they require at least a 5mm spacer to clear the stock shocks/springs.

[240RB1]

thanks for the pics. they look good are they tt wheels or n/a all around you need a drop real bad with stock ride height your car looks like a rally car. thanks for the pics though.

[vvaffle]

haha yeah. its horrible. if you noticed, i have mud all across the right side of the car, goes up to the windows. i should be getting suspension sometime in may.

What the...???I love your car, man. Nice z32 wheels, calipers, the lip, clean body and nice drop. You have a good taste.

[Gspec]

^ thaks man, i dont surf Nico as much as i should...just now noticed your reply.

I did just get in some Z32 TT rear wheels... the have 10mm less offest than the NA z32's and are an inch wider at 8.5". I'll be mounting a set of 245-50-16 Nitto nt555r Drag Radials to these.









I'll be sure to post some pics of the fitment after i get the tires.

[spooled240]

^nice man..I'm picking up a set of staggered TT wheels tomorrow with nearly brand new potenza tires for $380!!! I'm excited to finally get rid of my 15x6 with 195/60 tires and actually get some real WHEELS (not hubcaps) with some wider rubber. I'll post the pics up when I get them on

[Gspec]

Test fit the rims today...pics:





Z32 TT wheel vs Z32 NA wheel with 225-50-16 tire mounted:

[spooled240]

Man dude, those are flush

I got my wheels, but I can't put them on until I get some front 5 lug hubs..yeah I'm base model here lol but I rolled them over my existing wheels and took a camera phone pic:

I noticed that the rear TT wheels are a tad concave than the n/a wheels, see if you can see the slight differences from the front and rear.

[Gspec]

Bolted on the new TT wheels and drag radials, they look good and hook great, but rub a little when it squats, so i'll be rolling the qp's soon...

[spooled240]

245-50-16 Nitto NT555R's

hello. i have a pet peeve. it's been people put Z32 wheels on the wrong side of the car (yes, it's just as common on a Z32 as on anything else, so i'm not bashing you 240 guys or anything). guy with the burgundy coupe, you have it right. same with you, mr. theresaredkoukiS14inmysignature. the other two, no. compare the two pairs for right/wrong. they're directional wheels, and people just don't seem to get that.

my wheels were on the wrong side when i got my Z

but that lasted less than a month!

[vvaffle]

what happens when you rotate the tires? they have to switch sides unless you unmount the tires. I see what you mean though.

[spooled240]

yeah mr. ihavearedz32inmyavatar is right they're supposed to "scoop" the air out from under the car at high speeds.

[JDMZ32]

it's been people put Z32 wheels on the wrong side of the car

"when" not "been". typo. sorry!

yeah mr. ihavearedz32inmyavatar is right they're supposed to "scoop" the air out from under the car at high speeds.

exactly. you lose HP when they're backwards.

[spooled240]

not HP, just downforce because you want the least amount of air under the car. I don't know how effective these wheels are, but that was the original purpose of removing air from under the car.

[Scuffed_ChukiCoupe]

these are b4 the drag radials right? what size tires on the wheels at this point? thanks. car looks great!!

[Scuffed_ChukiCoupe]

hey man, sorry this took so long. camera wasn't working. anyway, here they are.







the front wheels are pretty flush, but thats with a spacer. they require at least a 5mm spacer to clear the stock shocks/springs.

did you get extended studs b4 the spacer? and what kind of spacer did you buy?

[JDMZ32]

not HP, just downforce because you want the least amount of air under the car. I don't know how effective these wheels are, but that was the original purpose of removing air from under the car.

haha i was joking! i doubt they really make that much of a difference. nothing noticeable. i'm wanting a set of TT rears now

[Scuffed_ChukiCoupe]

i plan to get a set of tt rears all around. i wanna know the sidewall of his n/a. Its probably 45 because he got 50's for his drag radials and i notice the difference. What do the tt rears come with stock size tires?

[spooled240]

i believe the stock tires for the TT rears are 245/50/16's I run a 245/45/16 and it looks fine.

[JDMZ32]

i'm not exactly sure on that answer. i know they're 225s and 245s. ask on the Z32 forum and you'll an answer with several confirmations.

[240RB1]

N/A front 225-50-16back 225-50-16

Twin Turbofront 225-50-16back 245-45-16

hope this clears the confusion thats the way they came when i got mine and the tires were old *** dunlops sp9000 if i remember right i believe they were the factory tires nissan used on TT

Good to see my thread still goin strong after almost two years

[5upra]

anyone try the tt rears up front on s13? if any pics are available that would be fantastic
