charolastra Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 I have a dumb question, anybody are running 13" rims on zx struts? Somebody told me they don't fit. Only the a.r. libres its that true? Anybody tried the hayashi racing? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment
shacks510 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Some 13"s barely fit with some grinding of the caliper. There's two little "ears" that you'll have to grind down to clear the barrel of the wheel, and even then it'll be tight. It will not affect caliper operation or structural integrity. I know Libres and Panasports fit. There's a pic floating around that I don't feel like finding :) 1 Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Rims are not my style, but ill take the car It had been through the ringer at that point. Car was rolled on it's side, wiped out the whole right side. That's why the pic was from the left side. :rofl: Right after the wreck (no, I did not wreck it, a friend did)... Replaced the suspension and front bumper, beat out the dents a bit, then sold it off. Just too many bad memories... But I'm in the process of building a clone of it right now... In it's heyday... 1 Quote Link to comment
Tom1200 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I have two sets of wheels on my coupe; one set are known as Hotwires and the set are Carroll Shelby Supercars (BBS copies with God center) and both fit. Note I bought the complete front end from Neeley 25 years ago and the calipers had the ears milled as described above. I like mine racers also run a small spacer (.250). Tom Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 I like mine racers also run a small spacer (.250). This helps a lot too. If you can afford to run a spacer, it frees up a lot of clearance. Quote Link to comment
charolastra Posted August 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Any spacers? How about this? http://www.futofab.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage_images.tpl&product_id=35&category_id=10&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=81&vmcchk=1&Itemid=81 Quote Link to comment
Dolomite Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Those spacers are good. Quote Link to comment
