Hey guys how are you. I recently bought a sr20'd 240sx.
Its a 95 original paint, clean title heres some pics...

Any ways I had it parked for about a week and the kid whose house I had
it at took it out for a spin and trashed the right two rims. Luckily there is
no body or frame damage just rim damage and the alignment got f*** up.
Anyways hes gonna be replacing the 2 rims and paying for a 4 wheel alignment.
The help I need is I want to replace the rims. Thanks to this site I have
found out that they are Konig Prophets. They are 17's. I found these last night

Would these fit? I am aware that the 95 240sx base model has a 4x114.3 bolt
pattern. Heres a pic of the brakes and wheel

What information do I need to gather to make sure I get the exact rims that I need?
Any help would be appreciated guys, thanks in advance.

That is the incorrect bolt pattern for your car so they won't fit.
Sucks that someone messed with your car. :(

Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their s***. For those ten seconds or less, I'm free. :chuckle:

jesus christ, $180 EACH!?!?!?! honestly for that price why dont you just buy some wheels that will fit better, have him buy 2 and you buy 2....its a Win,Win,Win.....yes i meant 3 wins, you get news wheels that make you car look better than it did, you only have to buy 2 and you get news wheels( i know i said it twice) my advice would be Rota D2's in 17x8.5 +20 in BLACK
look here 4 wheels shipped would be $700, thats 60 more than a set of those terrible sized wheels you currently have you would be out basically $400http://www.jlbmotorsports.com/store/product_in ... cts_id=407

that all sounds good but the main reason id buy those "crappy" rims is because i know they will clear the brakes. the rims that are on it now clear the brakes by just a few mm
ps can anyone tell me how i can tell if these will clear my brakes
