I've got a 4lug 1991 240sx hatch with 1994 q45 calipers on the front. Will stock steel wheels clear the brakes? Right now I'm running 17" advan tc's with +45 offset (lousy fwd hub pattern) and I'm selling to get new wheels. While I'm at it, is anyone running sportmax 002's with +0 offset in the front with bigger brakes? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure any wheels that clear stock S13 brakes will clear the Q brakes. Q calipers dont really stick out any further than the stock calipers.

I have seen a couple of guys running the 002's 0 offset, but cant remember what brakes they had. I doubt it will be a problem though.

I have no experience with either the wheels or the brakes though. Hopefully some who's running them will chime in...

yeah, what I may end up doing is staggering the fronts with the 15 by 7's, +38 offset and running spacers. i'm pretty sure everything will clear, but it's going to be a grindy ride back if they don't.
