Yes I have searched and read a million threads and I read the one at the top of this forum(all 4 pages)

What I need to know is if it is the front or the back z32 300mm calipers that have trouble clearing the stock rims.

I have a 93 with 4 lug alloys. I bolted up the rears and they cleared. I just would like to know in advance if the fronts will also clear or if they will be even closer and therefore not clear. Thanks in advance guys!

Some do, some don't. I believe it depends on if your's have that inner lip on them. If they do, it wont' clear, if they don't, it will clear. Try searching FreshAlloy, I know there was a big writeup on this a few days ago http://www.freshalloy.com

It's the front that tends to be the problem since it protrudes out more that the stock calipers. The diameter is usually not the problem. And by front, I'm referring to the side that has NISSAN written on it.
