all depends on the size and offset of the wheel you have in mind.Cuz if I remember correctly most rota wheels are fit for FWD cars... although there could be models that have lower offsets and bigger sizes..

And of course what size caliper of z32 brakes that your are reffering too.26mm or 30 mm...

Let us know that info and well be able to point you to the right answer easier.

I have 30mm, what offset would be best that Rota offers? This is on my S13 if it helps.

It depends on spoke design, and mounting setup. You could have a low offest wheel, but if the mounting pad isn't at least 2 in. away form the back of the spoke, it probably won't clear.

Yeah, not sure which Rotas you have in mind but if you are looking at Slipstreams, the answer is NO.



-Rota Slips (+40 offset)-26mm Z32 Calipers

I know it is hard to see the fitment from the pic but the spoke is a little more than the "Nissan" lettering from fitting. Again not sure what Rota's you are talking about but for slips with the standard offset you'll definatly need spacers.
