Z_Pilot Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 (edited) I have fallen in love with these wheels :bow: at Courtesey Parts I was going to wait to do the wheels and tires, but, they are on sale...$100 bucks off... I have a 95 SE... I think it is the same bolt pattern >> correct me if I am wrong However, I think that the backspacing would be an issue. Is the stock backspacing 3.0 or 3.5 inches? ...and 39mm is only an inch or so, so I think I need wheel-spacers Oh, one other thing...what is the metric eqivalant to a 31-10.5-16? Thanks Z Edited January 13, 2006 by Z_Pilot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbecktold Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Everybody I've seen that has tried to fit the newer generation Nissan wheels to the (W)D21s has had to use wheel spacers. Something about the right backspacing but the wrong offset? I haven't seen them in person, but I think the minimum is a 1/2" spacer, I'll try to find that info again...

Filthy Luker Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Same bolt pattern but the offset is terrible for our trucks. Basically if it's a daily driver it will look silly because the wheels will be too much in, and at any kind of real flex your tires and wheels will hit the frame. I have used once a 17x8" wheel off a Supercharged Fronty/Xterra and i wasnt able to put a finger between the frame and the tire. That's how close it is. You'll need a spacer, but in all honesty you can probably find a better wheel somewhere else. If you really want some slick stuff take a look at the teflon Chambers: http://www.americanracing.com/wheels/detai...alloy§ion=S or Mojaves: http://www.americanracing.com/wheels/detai...inish§ion=S or Victors: http://www.americanracing.com/wheels/detai...inish§ion=S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys, I realize I might need a spaceer, but how much? Here is a link to a quick search I found on eBay: eBay Wheel Spacers I guess I have to choose between plates and adapters....

I have a 350z with silver Volk wheels....It would be kinda fun to duplicate that Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
