Does anyone know if this will...

"These are genuine Original JDM ADVAN AVS Forged Special edition 18 inch wheels. They are black with the red pinstripe. two are 18 x 8.5" with +45 offset and two are 18 x 9.5" with +40 offset. They are 5 x 4.5" (114.3mm) bolt pattern."

Fit a 96 240sx, with a 5 lug conversion of course... I'm close to buying, the buyer isnt too sure about the fitting.

[Brian]

they should fit, but the offsets are not meant for a RWD car such as the 240sx.

[Tuck&Poke]

that offset BLOWS dont waste your money

[sickdoode]

arent meant to fit.... is this a bad thing?

[Brian]

yes its a bad thing. offset is way too high. it will make the wheels look crappy on the car. pass on these and wait for something good to come along.

[sickdoode]

all right thanks a lot man

what offset do you recommend?

[CleanS14]

Wow Brian, taking over Dousan's duties I see haha... go with something lower than +30mm. It really depends on your taste, usage and willingness to make anything fit... just search and you'll find a ton of offset threads.

[Brian]

ehh i got nothing to do today.

[sickdoode]

hahah man i wish you werent such a guru on this topic... i really want to make these wheels work ... =T

[nokeone]

you could make them work......




with 25mm spacers..:p

[Brian]

true

[Heartwork]

just save your money and order some low offset wheels to begin with from Jspec.com or gruppe-s.com

they can get Advan wheels..
it will take a while, but in the end be better for u, and youd only put half a deposit down, so u can save up the rest of the $$

actually, those are FD3S offsets, RX7s have reaaaaaally high offset wheels (stock 16x8 +45 irc). uncharacteristic for a FR car

If you ever see really nice JDM wheels with shitty offsets, you know why.

its too bad, i LOVE those wheels, the black AVS with red stripes, but the only ones i've ever seen for sale are in FD offsets :(

oh, if you really want those, ask old s13 what he did to make his stock FD wheels fit. lots of spacers and long studs (not sure if that was for brake clearance or strut clearence...)
