Was definitely impressed when I was prepared to be diasappointed (your title got my hopes up for a rare good thread, lol) by your initial research, so this gets a link in the 240SX FAQ, which I'm hoping to expand soon ala Maxima.org -- I've always been a fan of their FAQ. Not sure how many 240 owners are members over there, but it's a bit more...... mature a forum than 240 gen here; we're slightly more entertaining, though.  (Really tryin' to cut back on stickies as we're overloaded already.  )
WTF makes you think all caps is a good idea? DIAF.

Hmm...SSR Integral A2's clear the 26mm Z32 calipers (with plenty of ease!)
Hell i can fit my skinny hand between the spokes and the caliper so they'll fit 30mm calipers as well. No doubt.

Okay, I have to ask this. I'm planning on SPL big brake kit for the front and also doing z32 rear w/e-brake. My question is how thick the spacer has to be to install donut on front and rear. If I can't install no matter what, I'll take it out cuz there's no point keeping it in the trunk. But, I've had flat tires before, so I rather want to keep it for emergency. I don't want to be stranded and calling a tow truck. I also lowered my car w/coilovers, so I cut rotating portion of scissor jack and it's much easier to use now. Anyway, I need to know what's going to take to mount donut. Anyone has experience?

You might just want to have a full size wheel/tire in the trunk for extended driving.

I doubt they will clear. I'd say no until someone proves otherwise.

1998 mustang cobra wheels clear 30mm caliper (17x8 30mm offset)enkie racing S 16x7 32offset do NOT clear 30mm calipers, and probably not even 26mm. you need at least an 8 or 10 mm spacer for them to clear.

well if anyone did a 5 lug swap, the bolt pattern on the 300zx and the S14 I believe is that same size,if so then any wheel that fits for the 300zx should clear the calipers, right?
As for wheels I wonder in the O.Z. Ulterleggera's fit? I've notice the really light weight on them and are supprised people aren't using them, so how strong are these rims also?

I had them on another car (FWD) that I had, and I liked them. I road raced with them, but never had a problem. I don't know if they clear big brakes though, never tried.
