Hey Guys,

In the process of building a 73 240z with an RB25DET swap, this means that we will have a higher horsepower than the stock car meaning a need for larger tires. So I am shopping for rims that would fit the bill and have the ability to fit large enough tires. Im thinking tires of size 225-245 with 15 inch wheels. Any ideas for rims? Trying not to spend too much, I like Panasports but those are around $250 each. :eek: Maybe something a little cheaper, nice looking rim but still has a retro look. ALL ideas welcome!

Thanks,
Collin

That looks pretty good. I'll go research those, I've never heard of them.

Yeah they're relatively cheap, they are a replica of CCW Classics. You should also check out ESM and Stance wheels.

15x8, 15x10 stagger.
225's front, 245's rear.

Find something Oldschool. If you like the JDM wheels, try find a second hand set. Can normally get them for similar price to new local ones, otherwise there are SOOO many options of wheels out there.

Have you got any idea what you're sort of looking for?
