Poll: '90 300zx Stock wheels on a '93 240sx

[Maverick7687]

I have a '93 240sx and I am getting the parts for a 5-lug conversion.. I have available (sp?) to me a set of 16" stock 300zx wheels with 225/50/16s on them...I just want to know everyones opinion on the look of these wheels on this car and the fitment...if anyone has tried it.....MavWould you put 300zx wheels on an RPS13?

[RedHatchback]

I personally like the Z rims on the 240.5 spoke rims are always in!

[S13 King]

yea it looks good.

[crzycav86]

I don't know if they fit well.. aren't they 16x7.5 +45 or some rediculously high offset? Pray that they clear stock suspension.

[Maverick7687]

yeah..I think thats the size...I am hopin they will clear...Those are the onyl 5-lugs I can get right now....Mav

EDIT: Isnt the factory '93 240sx offset like +40 or +35mm?? I cant seem to find this anywhere!

[crzycav86]

15x6 +40 is stock s13 size

[Maverick7687]

so the 16x7.5 +45 wont be that bad then..or is there something that changes with the wheel diameter and width that I dont know about??

[Onizuka]

I love em on S13's

[asoomal]

How about the 8.5 wrapped in 245's? Those look a lot nicer.

[mRodiek]

Probably half of the people that go 5lug get those wheels to start with, search: Bumnah

[asoomal]

WTF!!!??

if you search there is a ton of people rocking z wheels found this pic on google hope it gives you a better idea on how they will look.

so the 16x7.5 +45 wont be that bad then

FACT:

225/45 rubs upfront without a 5mm spacer. My friend has z32 turbo wheels on his s14.

Yes, I realize that this thread is 5 yrs old, but...

I think it depends on what all you're running. I have 225/45's on 17x7 +47 Sentra SE-R wheels. They do not rub at all. The car has Eibach Sportlines (~1.75' drop up front) and stock inner tie rods (no super drift angles). So, not sure it's a fact. I can see it being an issue if you're slammed and/or running more steering angle though.
