16x6.5 +40 is S14 SE (5 lug)

base model and S13 are similar. 15x6.5 +40 i think.

if your car is a base model, which youre saying it isnt, it is 4 lug. if it is really an SE you should have 5 lugs.

zenki, chuki, kouki... thats all changes within a given model year.

zenki s13 had ka24ekouki (for US market) s13 had ka24de.

if you have 4 lugs, its not an SE.

do you have white gauge faces? front lip? side skirts? se badging?

wouldn't be the first se badged s14 i've seen that wasn't a true SE.

Hmm....I'm Telling You Guys...My Car Has To Have The 300zx End Lugg Peices On It...Cause That Guy Wrecked One And He Switched Parts On All The Cars All The Time And He's Crazy...And This Car Did Have Side Skirts But Now There's A Black Peice That Goes Under The Car...(Undertrim I Guess) And There Is No Badge On The Front Of The Car...But My Car Does Have Velour Seats And Power Windows And Doors And Cruise Controll...And The Guy I Bought It From Said It Was A SE..But He Didn't Know What It Meant...And I'm Pretty Sure I Saw It When I Had The Title...But The Bank Has It Now...And Oh Yea...The Gauges Are Red

wow, please stop the caps, its kinda difficult to read.

anyway... so youre saying that you have an S14 SE with 4 lug hubs, and 4 lug 300zx wheels? if thats true, they are older 300sx wheels, as in not Z32 wheels, because those are 5 lug.

There arent any badges on the fronts of nissans, the badges are on the back, it should say "SE" if its an SE.

Either you drive an S13 and dont know it, or you dont drive an S14 SE, or your hubs were swapped, those are really the only options in this situation.
