hello I found a great deal on some gram light 57c wheels in 17-7.5 with a offset of +38 I was wondering if these would clear the 30mm z32 calipers that I plan on putting on my 91 240sx? I searched the internet to see if these wheels fit the 300zx but found nothing!! I think they would fit because the stock 300zx wheels are 16-7.5 with a +45 offset but I am concerned about the way the spokes are curved on the gram wheels does any on have these wheels on there 300zx or z32 brake swapped 240sx? let me know!! thanks

Will given that your 5 lug I dont know my 5 lug sizes as good as 4 lug. But, are you sure that the offset is +38mm? The reason why I ask is they dont make a 17x7.5 or 17x8.5 in +38mm offset. When you get up to 17x9.5 then you can get +38mm. Also 18x9.5 you can get +38mm, but anyother sizes than that they dont make. Just a heads up and I'd double check the size.

offset RARELY means anything as far as the wheel clearing the brakes... its the thickness of the disc in the middle... Ive seen that most wheels that clear the Z32s are about 1in thick disc, from the spoke to the edge..

Should clear, but I agree make sure of the offset. I was un-aware that one was made in the 57c 17x7.5.
