anyone know of a nice set of universal rims (aftermarket) that look good on an 82 280zx, with a reasonable price? ..........................................................

the konig rewinds are a popular choice, and pretty cheap when compared to the pannasports, or revolutions, not a lot of aftermarket 4x4.5 zero offset wheels, many people like the stock 83 turbo "swastica" style wheels cleaned up and polished

well $70 a peice would be great! but honestly $70 for the set.I'm in Louisville, Ky

all 4 are round altho one of them takes an almost excessive amount of weight to balance, but once balanced is perfectly fine. no curbings, little nicks here and there but they've spent almost 10 years in a junkyard...the backside of em are fairly tarnished with age but the face side could just use another polish job.

theres not much to chose from when it comes to after market wheels for the early Zs... hardly anyone makes wheels at 0 offset... i suggest getting wheel adapters and then you can get any set of wheels out there....

thats what i did...
