name the wheels?

[QuicksilverFX]

anyone know?





im about to buy these, just wanted to know the make. also if anyone knows, what kind of tuner lugs i need.

[simmode1]

Not sure really. What are the diameter, width and offset?

[Razi]

Hahahahahatuner lugs.

And the offset looks horrendous.

[QuicksilverFX]

i just want to know the brand of wheels really. the guy selling them said i would probably need tuner lugs

[Razi]

I think you should keep away from these wheels, they look like they will be sunken as hell.

[Chris28]

Razi is right, they will be sunken like the titanic. Keep the stock ones, they will look a million times better than those wheels.

[themadscientist]

they are Volks. And "tuner lugs", seriously?

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Those are Volks?!?

[QuicksilverFX]

give me a break guys lol this will be my first set of wheels. i'm probably going to test fit them later this week or next weekend.

are they actually volks? anyone know the exact type?

[themadscientist]

I don't know the specific model but I had a freind who had some five-spoke volks with that same recessed machined area under the spokes as those do.

There should be obvious indication on the wheels though, these smell like knockoffs.

[Razi]

Once you test fit them, and you see how sunken they are.Don't buy em and keep the wheels you have now.

[ZX88]

they look like old volks. im guessing by raising on the iner lip between the spokes.

[QuicksilverFX]

spacers wont help it any?

Don't buy wheels, anticipating needing spacers. Save your money and run OEM until you can buy wheels that fit. Do it right the first time.

And I really can't even fathom how anyone on these boards can even consider buying a set of wheels without knowing the diameter, width and offset.

[s13 iDRIFT]

yea the offset looks pretty high!

how much you plan on buying them for?

That sort of critcal thinking and logic has no place in 240 general. It could undermine the whole system!

[QuicksilverFX]

im mostly buying them for the tires, all of my current tires all all different sizes and the front are getting pretty warn out.

im paying 200, which is cheaper then what i can get 4 tires for. the wheels a really clean and the tires are almost brand new. he got them off of a 240 so im guessing it will look fine. im still going to get more info on them before i buy and will let you all know how it turns out. i just found out about the wheels and was just wanting to know if anyone could tell what kind they are.

lol no.Have you ever seen the majority of the 240sx's in the 240 section?A lot of them have sunken, ugly wheels.

Because it was on a 240sx, doesn't mean it will look good.

[themadscientist]

troof.

[QuicksilverFX]

i was looking at another picture and in the wheel i can read RACING BSATOP guessing thats the type of wheel.

i never said it will look good i said i guess it will look fine. your all acting as if I've already decided to buy them. i will find out more info and if i don't like them i wont buy, simple

[AZ89two4Tsx]

troof.

x2

Hate to say it, but NICO sure does have its share of ricers in 240gen.

[QuicksilverFX]

i f***ing give up. every thread on this forum end out with people spiting out s*** for no reason and not staying on topic.

[sancosys]

The volks madscientist was referring to is the SF Challenge. Those wheels in that you pictured are nonamewhateverwallmartelcheapowasteofmoneymakeyoucrashanddie brand

You obviously found the wheel company name so go and google now.

[themadscientist]

Thank you! It was driving me crazy not remembering what they were called.

[R-Yahne_240]

i what in on this ........

yeah fwd rims ftl but i really cant say anything i have ser spec v wheels

and yes they look bo bo but for 150 and a full set brand new i would be a fool to not buy them

[R-Yahne_240]

oh yeahhh SE wheels ftw buy some good tires and lower your car about 2 inches

[brandonlgilbert]

Those are made by BSA. Usually a very inexpensive wheel that tends to copy or "knock off" design cues from top manufacturers. I don't know the exact model, but this should get you searching in the right direction.

The same company that manufactures this gem.

[Dittoz7]

They Actually Look Kinda Wide.

8in?

[Kaleo55]

I dunno, $200 for 4 good tires, with wheels may not be a bad deal, can't really see the condition of the tires though. Hmm.. BSA, they make okay wheels, but the offset on those look pretty high indeed, gonna need some major spacers...25mm or more... buy the wheels, keep the tires, sell the wheels.
