I have a 93 240sx SE convertible.

Is there anybody here that has FOUR lug Sportmax 501s 16x8, +15 offset with aftermarket brakes (300zx, Q45s)?

I currently have the stock suspension.. but will lower it in the future (if that matters)

Which brake setup do you have installed? 300zx? Q45? a other combinations?

Thank you.

they won't clear Z brakes.

but they'll clear Q brakes though. Just an fyi, Q brakes have about the same wheel clearance as oem s13 brakes.

oh and Z and Q brakes aren't really aftermarket, lol.

Thanks for the response. You are right, they aren't aftermarket. But they aren't OEM for the 240 either. :-)

Do you have Q45 brakes then? Do I have to be 5 lug?

no not at all. Just get them redrilled to 4 lug.
