smallest rims for z32

[irax]

whats the smallest size rim that z32 can fit in the front? i know oem is 16, but on a 240sx oem is 15 but you can fit 14's on the front and 13's on the back if needed.... i just wanna be able to run 15's for cheaper tires

Sell the car. If you can't afford tires for it, you can't afford the car.

my my my. so much hostility.

think about it. tires for 16" wheels, or 15" wheels plus tires. I'm going to guess that you'll probably end up spending more on 15" wheels and tires than just on tires for 16" wheels.

Also, not sure if any 15" wheels will clear the Z32 brakes.

And 16" tires aren't significantly more than 15" tires anyway. Maybe $5-$10 per tire.

awww now your acualy answering my question.. :-p yeah 16" tires are only a little bit more per tire, but for the piticuler tire i want its 24 bucks more... and thats almost 100 bucks for a set in difference... for 3 sets of 16" tires i could of gotten 4 sets of 15" and like i said i already have the 15 and 16inchers... so its not a matter of buying them

No. You didn't say you already had them. And if you already had them, why haven't you tried them on the car already? That's just plain stupid. Or lazy. So which are you?

its not stupid or lazy, im just busy but anyways since i had some time to day i test fitted my 15's and they clear size wise, but i need an adapter for the offset... so thanks again for nothing, but now if some searches they can find this so they dont have to post and have people like you d!ck around

[PalmerWMD]

easy fellas...

Fred..

PS: I dont know the answer either but you can pick up inexpensive yet light and strong 15 inch, from old Q's, dont look good, but are light, strong, and cheap the so-called Q45 pie pans.

You're funny. Too "busy" to take 10 minutes to try a wheel on, but not too busy to take some perfect stranger's word if they had said, "Oh yeah, such and such a size will fit perfectly!" You're funny.

lol this is quite an intersting thread....i'm not sure whether to chip in my two cents or just laugh

As far as I know, you won't find 15's that will clear the Z32 brakes up front. Just go with 16's. And regardless of what cars you have and what's done to them..it is kinda obvious that if you don't want to spend the coin on something like tires and are sweating it maybe the car isn't practical. But who cares. Save your money, buy the 16's.

ohh thanks i dont try at all.. and yeah 15's will fit size wise, but not offset or backspace wise... and now that i have a spacer it fits fine, clears brakes turn angles dont bump or anything its all good..
