A guy is selling some z32 na wheels local and I wanted to know how high can you go on stock z32 wheels? I have se wheels now that are at 225/50/16. Can the na z32's go higher? I know the TT ones can but not sure about the na. Thank you.

Nope....Z32 NA are pretty much the same size as the SE rims. Offset is different by like 2mm but same crappy 6.5j.

wrong the na wheels are by 7.5 in the front and rear while the tt wheels are by 8.5 in the rear only
offset still sucks though according to zilvia standards

Actually, NA is 7.5 front/rear while TT is 7.5 front and 8.5 rear!! I just bought a set of NA for like $100 and has a nice look to it but I might need to get spacers or adapters for the front.

225/50/16 is stock for NA z32 wheels. u can always go wider if u wanted but it will have the "ballooning" look to it

Don't go wider that 255/50-16. Itll look funny. Fronts are also 44 offset I believe.

I have a na z32 and i have 245/45r16 falken ziex 512 on my car and it doesn't balloon. There the same width as the rim so i haven't had any problems with having my tires balloon.

NA = 7.5 inchs wide, +38 offset
TT = 2 na wheels (fronts) + 2 8.5 +38 offset

Stock tires are, 225/50/16 on NAs, 245/45/16 on the TTs

for an s14, +25 spacer in the front on Nas, +15 in the rear on TTs. or for all NAs use all 25mm spacers

Any other questions?

spacers are not necessary for these wheels

You are incorrect. I have had an S13 and an S14 with Z wheels on both. Both cars had springs or coilovers at some point or another and the Z wheels with 225/50 rub in the front every time. Needs a 5mm spacer.

i had rubbing issues in the front with the weights on the rim of the NA z32 wheels. it would rub on the shock. i just took it off today and half of the weight has been rubbed off :P

ya they rub on the front..

And that was from the tire, but the wheel weight also hit. Spacers are necessary. 25/15 on TT wheels makes them look decent for what kinda of wheels they are (stockies)

just use the weight that goes inside the rim and it wont rub anymore
