terrible angle to ask a wheel question, and I'd say it looks more like a 14" stock 240Z fits a 15x7 with a zero offset, i suspect the dime can fit about the same, and thats about as big as you can go on a stock suspension, add coil overs and you get another inch and a half of backspace

and the bolt sircle is 4x4.5 or 4.114.3

and that looks like an L4 valve cover to me

A rotary???do you know what a rotary looks like?have you ever seen a L16/L18/L20b before?

that looks nothing at all like a rotary, and everything like a L16/L18/L20b.....

from the angle of that pic, if it had a rotary, you would only just be able to see it, since they are small engines, and sit real low in the engine bay

yeah....had I really been looking, I'd have noticed the huge valvecover, sign number one it's not a rotary...

I've sadly only gotten to stick my head under the hood of maybe one dime in person, most any Datsun I see around here is either a Z or a Fairlady Roadster.

now, please excuse me while I go remove my foot from my mouth

I agree.

I don't much care for Mutt cars...unless it's a Lotus.

Or someone puts an FJ in anything.

and my pet peeve is gnawing on my back.....it's "wheels" not "rims"

......someone will undoubtedly question this, do yourself a favor and do a bit of research before making yourself look uneducated

I was a bit hung over and perhaps still a bit drunk, the older I get the more it hurts
