dallas444 Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I've been thinking about swapping the original 13" wheels out for some 14"s off a 240 with low profile tires. Smart or dumb? Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 240sx or Z? Sx are positive offset. Your current wheels will still look better. Find some early Z wheels, baby supras, or something aftermarket closer to neutral offset. Quote Link to comment
dallas444 Posted May 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Sorry flatcat, this is new to me, what is the offset thing you're talking about? Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Use Google. Offset is as important for wheel fitment as diameter and width. Tons of reading out there on the subject. A little research will help you get it figured out. Quote Link to comment
5280Datsun Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I know you have a 210 to my B210, but I have 15x6 +15 195/50/15 280ZX wheels and love them. Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Those snowflakes look good. Quote Link to comment
Rjawm Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 I don't know if the upsizing to 14's is good or bad. But I do know you'll still need 4 of them, regardless. Quote Link to comment
dallas444 Posted May 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Very nice 5280! Quote Link to comment
B210ratsun Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Www.willtheyfit.com is my goto site for wheel fitment. On the backside of your wheel will be the measurements of said wheel. It will look something like this: This wheel is 14x6 with a +12 offset. Quote Link to comment
