Something like 17x9 +15 or 18x9 +15 in 4lug would be awesome.

actually...in all honesty...i use to think like that...until i went out and spent the money on a 5 lug conversion for my 240...best money i ever put into the car...4 lug wheels are a waste for most companies now because damn near ALL new cars that are being produced...and have been produced in the last 5-8 years...theyre all 5 lug...so the majority of the market is dominated by 5 lug cars

or just keep looking at the negative side of things and nothing will ever get accomplished

i dont think it is so much people being negative but they are giving their input. we understand you are trying to get some cool parts for the S chassis, however you did ask for input and people are giving it. if it doesnt draw that much attention then so be it

i personally like the way the cluster looks, and indeed would be a great upgrade for the interior, but im in the same boat as a few on here.

if it was priced a little cheaper, then maybe. ill be the first one to admit i suck at wiring and i hate dealing with it, so the plug and play factor is great. i also have a daily driver so taking some time to wire something like defi/stack up wouldnt bother me

but like i said, if the interest isnt there, it isnt there.

and those P2s are so sick. i want some 18s so bad but im not feeling that +35 on the 9''.

honestly i think importing wheels for the 240sx market is a waste, even for the cast models as the market has moved more toward more low-end product from China and taiwan.

The cluster as well is a waste if one considers the cost of a used 240sx and the cluster a percentage of the price of the used car.

But i'm sure its more beneficial for buddy club to stick to other unique offset RWD cars like the 350/G, Rx-8, IS, and S2000. As a typical owner of that type of car will have more disposable income than the current average S-chassis owner, and especially IS and s2000 require a pretty weird offset in the high +40's to low +60's.
