200SX Wheels

[SideWays Silvia]

Does anybody know if the wheels off a 80's model 200SX will fit on a 89 240sx?? Found some nice wheels on a hold turbo 200, and i was thinking about getting them, thanks, NIck

if you are referring to an S12, then yes they will fit you s13. s12's were the older model 200sx's that were RWD.

Yes I have a set of 200sx rims and yes they will fit.

hey, would it be a bad idea to stick FWD rims on a 240???? Does it really matter? I have a couple of friends that have SE-Rs and preludes, I know the patterns would work, but I also heard that its a bad idea to put a set of FWD rims on a RWD...is this true?

Thats because FWD uses a really high offset usually...if the offset is around 40 though it'll be fine. You can always test fit one and see if it hits anything/sticks way out. It's not like there are safety issues with using a FWD rim vs. RWD rim, its just a difference in the offsets.

my rims came offa my wifes accord. They work fine (but require a spacer to clear teins)
