maybe the offset is to high and they are hitting the coil/spring and strut.

they are probably hitting the front struts. do u mean the studs dont protrude from the wheel itself?

sounds like you need longer studs or spacer then from what your saying.

- Basically the studs arent long enough (longer studs)
or
- The rims is hitting the strut (spacer)

I think the problem was that you bought 14's because you're cheap.

Then talked yourself into "liking 14's"

Ya, I figure that's most likely your problem.

im thinking they dont go through because you have the wrong hub size? did you see if your wheel fits flush against the pad?

i have a steaming pile of shit that you can have.

It's free, so you must think it's "fresh", right?

You couldn't dig around and find someone's unwanted stock wheels just to have wheels that fit?

You guys are all trippin..

The only reason they don't fit is because you need SPLINE type lug nuts for those wheels.

Go get them, put the wheels on, done.

I would never run 14's on my car. They just don't look right on 240's, 15's don't look that great on 240's either.

why would you buy TE37's before you go five lug and then put 14" wheels on?

14x8 +40 wheels on a 240SX?

YOU'RE A MOTHERFUCKING RETARD. Freshly aborted babies look better than that.

That shit won't even work on a AE86 Corolla. Put your fucking steelies back on and call it a day.

Jesus tittyfucking Christ... I am very sad for the future of humanity.

14 rear, 15 fronts

was able to hold 3rd gear drifts that day.
But the compramise is your speed goes down drastically.
Running small rims is some JDM shit from back in the day anyways,
your too noob for that.

put steelies back on.
