ok ...odd ball post but here it goes

the z32 calipers are on my Ae86 .......anything bigger then 15 inch rims is a no no for an ae86.......

besides the stock SE s13 wheels ........what other 15 inch rims will clear z32 26mm calipers????????????

its worth a try to ask ......i honestly dont think any nissan owners would ever buy 15 inch rims for thier car

i plan to buy 15in work miesters.......has anyone experienced 15in work miesters?

its all in the spoke design that determines what clears the z brakes. There are certain models of oem se s13 wheels that actually clear too. Meisters should clear if you get the ones with the low disk.

Don't buy the 26ers. It's almost impossible to find rotors.

You think so?It took me 3 tries to get 30mm rotors. They are all over EBay, and for some reason, that is the default rotor size at my local parts store.At least that WAS the case 2 years ago when I bought new rotors.
