I have the ability to pick the following wheels and tires up for what I consider a really good deal. I'm kinda clueless about this sort of thing.

Can you tell by pics (below) if these'll work on my s13 '93 240sx "vert"?

Does the "offset" look alright?

Am I correct in assuming they're a GREAT deal for $250 for wheels and tires?

How do you think they would look on a red "vert"?

I guess that's about it. So thanks and here are the pics...

All I know is they're 17" and if you look at the closeup pic of the tire it states 225/45R17 and from the other pic you can see they look to be universal 4 lug. What else do I (you) need to know?

do you know who makes them, is there any markings on the backside of the wheel. how wide is it, you could take a ruler and get a good estimation (subtract a half inch or so becasue of the bead)

they may bolt up, and clear suspension, but i doubt if they would be anywhere near what i and a few others consider fitting.

are these wheels on ebay, do you have a link to them?

Yes, what he said. Also, universal 4-lug doesn't mean they'll fit. They kinda look like they're going to have a fairly high offset, probably around +40. So, they're not going to be anywhere near flush.

I can guarantee that your car will be noticably slower and uglier with these wheels

Well that's quite a guarantee Spironium. I guess I'll pass on these and keep looking. Thanks for all your help guys and sorry I didn't have more info. Unfortunately, alot of times the people trying to sell them don't seem to know all that stuff either. Thanks again all. -Glyph

if they don't know don't get them unless they are uber rare, a good deal, and you can use a spacer to make them fit right. i'd pass on those they would look worse than stockies personally
