Yes they fit. A member here has them. Do a search and you'll find him. (it isnt my place to give out people's user names without their consent.):)

Yeah they should fit. Someone on this forum has them on their car. Here is a thread about them. Here (http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?s=&threadid=21357&highlight=200sx+AND+wheels)

A friend of mine gave them to me also, he painted them black and have yet to go on my car. make sure you get the proper lug nuts, because if you try to get them at the dealership they are 13 bucks each.

its cool. Whatever we post in a public forum is public material :) I got my 200sx wheels at the junkyard and yes you have to get the right lug nuts. They come on a LOT of Nissan cars with alloy wheels. ie. 300zx, 200sx, 240sx... If it fits an alloy Nissan wheel, then it will most likely fit your 200sx wheel. Here's pictures: www.cardomain.com/id/240degrees THANK GOD FOR CHEAP WHEELS THAT LOOK GOOD!!!

wow! those look crazy! give me an opinion on if you'd have than painted black or bronze and leave the lip polished, or if you'd just leave with the alloy finish.

This one guy painted the mesh black and kept the lip silver. He's from the http://www.son240sx.ca forums and also this one, but I forget his name. Here's a picture. It looks good, but I dont know if it would look good in real life.

Why don't you try them on your car first with just the alloy finish and take pictures? :) What color is your car? I'm curious to see these wheels on another color 240 because I've only seen them on another guy's black/dark fastback.

i just went to walmart to see if they have the proper lug nuts. I know for sure they are E series. The main difference with these lugnuts is that they have a washer pressed on. I have to continue to look for these lugnuts because walmart didn't have the proper ones. Whenever I get the chance I will provide a photo. I have checked various places and still haven't found them.

well i have a grey fastback and i can only get a hold of 2 wheels. i think the black with the lip polished will look pretty good.

Oke, those ones at wall mart did not work? Was the thread pitch different or something?
