Wheel bolt pattern and offset

[Evil S14]

What is the bolt pattern for the 240sx and offset and stuff cuz theres these wheels for sale that have a +44 offset and they are 5x114.3, i just wanna know if anyone has anything like htis and if they are bowed out or anything, thanx.

well, the best offset if i'm not mistaken is about 38-40, but I think 44 would fit. The bolt pattern is 4x114.3 for 4 lugs / 5x114.3 for 5 lugs, so you're all set there.

so would the =4 more make that big of a difference, like would it look dumb and stick all out and stuff?

Well, actually it would go the other way. They'd be a little farther in the wheel wells. I'm guessing you'd be ok. 4mm really isn't that much

it depends on the width of wheel youre looking at.  if its a 7" wide wheel, then i'd pass on it.  itll look really funny.  if its an 8 or 9, it might be ok.

but you don't want that 8 or 9 inch rim rubbing against your springs.   I'm not an expert on offset  but +44 sounds  a little much for that width on our cars.

very true.  i think i have +40 with a 7" width, and it looks very inset to me
