Can the 87-89 turbo rims direct fit onto an 86na. The offset is 30mm and the 86 rims are 10mm. Would I need spacers? The owner of the turbo rims has them on a 86na 2+2 direct with no rubbing. Would like to be sure no mods are necessary before I buy these. Also, do they require a differnt lugnut than the 86na? Thanks.

yes they'll fit fine, if it makes you feel better you can run a 10 mm spacer but you don't have to, the lugs are the same

They'll sit about 1/2" farther under the car on each side because of the additional offset. But yes. They'll fit.

There are far better options out there.http://wheelshow.redz31.com/http://www. ... ma...shtml

thanks for the reply's. I made one mistake, the rims are 87-89 N/A with 20mm offset. I'm guessing they'll only sit back 1/4 inch or so more than the stock 86 rims.

10mm is closer to 1/2" than 1/4". And stock wheels look bad enough as they are for how far under the car they sit. Try getting better fitting wheels.

As you have a 240sx, I'm assuming you've heard the expression "BATTLESHIP". Well... You'll be getting that here as well.
