Will Altima 4-lug alloys fit a 240sx? I know the whole RWD vs. FWD is supposed to require different off-sets, but an OEM wheel dealer told me they fit. He showed me the figures he had, and the bolt pattern is the same for the 4-lug 240sx, and the 4-lug Altima....? is this true or is the salesman mistaken?

I believe they are the same but I'll check and let you know.

Thank you! This guy says he can get OEM Altima alloy 4-lugs at a decent price, and as far as I know there are no 240sx 4-lug OEM alloys. It's cheaper than aftermarket wheels and they look classy, not over the top! I just need to know if they actually fit...

The wheels are the same size for standard model steel and alloy from 90-98 240, 15-6JJ with 40 mm offset. I just checked 96 Altima and wheel size for standard model steel and alloy wheels are the same as 240 with a 45mm offset. I was unable to physically check an Altima wheel on a 240. That is the best way to check it. I think some of the 240 came with 5 lug but I never payed much attention. Lug pattern should be the same. If I get a chance I'll check it out further and let you know.

I believe all years that had an SE, came with 5-lug alloys. I didn't know there was a 4-lug alloy for 240's.... strange.
