I dont know if this would work, but here it go. Okay. I've been looking into panasport 8 spoke rims. Unfortunatly. TOO EXPENSIVE. But.. I've found somthing similar. Anyone every heard of Ronal 8 spoke rims. They look just like the panasport ones. But these come stock on the Saab 900. I think it looks nice. I'm going to put them on my 240sx. What do you think? Would they fit. There. 15x6 4 lug. 4x114.3. THanks!

umm, well you would have to check about the offset, but that is a pretty small rim size and ought to fit with a wide range of offsets. But why would you want to run a 15x6 since that is narrower than stock? I finally swapped out some crappy 15x6 eagle alloys for some 16" racing peaks 7 inches wide front and 8 in the rear and it makes such a difference.

Really? Most people seem to be saying 6.5 for stock width, and it sounds right, because I ran some 205 width tires on my 6.0 wheels, and they looked way more bulged than most other 240's with 205s. Maybe the pignose came with skinnier wheels? Either way, I just dont see any point in upgrading wheels but sticking with same(or similar) width.

5 lug S14s use 16x6.5 but the S13 uses 15x6 from factory. http://jpowell.tripod.com/saab-wheels/#silvervaneHere are the only Saab 4 lug patterns:4x1085x100 5x1105x110I couldn't find the offset. However on the Ronal website it seems they make their wheels for the 4 lug Saabs around +40.Btw, Silvia_Freak, your sig reads vavle not valve.
