Ohh they looks nice!

not too good of a pic but in person i like em, the spokes pop out from the center hub and outer rim, they look tight!

The ones i like are on the 3.5 SL they are 17x7.0 but i can't get the offset #'s until the service manual becomes available at my work...

I'm thinking 5 lug swap with an assortment of stock nissan wheels, i have S14 SE wheels, and getting Z32 non turbo wheels, i wanna add these or at least the 2003 maxima GXE wheels (7 spoke 17" wheels also) to my collection if they will work!

LOL the new maxima's look like an altima don't they!!!

I just looked up today the 2003 maxima GLE 7 spoke wheels i like also and found they are 17x7 with a 40mm offset...

That means

compared to the 91-93 240sx SE 7 spoke wheels it'll have 13mm less clearence from the inside of the rim to the strut housing, and it will stick out 13mm more...

and compared to the 95-98 240sx SE 5 spoke wheels it'll have 6mm less clearence from the inside of the rim to the strut housing, and it will stick out 6mm more...

Hey Chet, did i forget anything else to consider when trying to figure out if these wheels will fit on my car? I've been hearing about "hubcentric" and some other type, havn't got a straight answer as of yet though...?

your going about it the right way.

Hubcentric centers the wheel around the hub, thus the name, most aftermarket wheels feature hub "rings", or adapters for their wheel bore and the hub bore of the vehicle its going on.

Lug-centric means the wheel uses the lug nuts to center the wheel, this is usually BAD. sometimes its OK, as most old RWD wheels were lug-centric anyway...

there ya go.-chet
