Finally Getting a 240

[ESmorz]

The car is pretty much cherry.

However the car had one wheel and the stereo stolen about a year ago and hasn't really been driven much since the guy has other cars.

There is a spare on it and 3 older model BSA rims.

Now, would you suggest finding another BSA wheel to replace it with...

Or spring for some new ones entirely? Cause I've been looking around and I'm quite sure they don't sell them anymore...

[kognition]

welcome newb. :)
Is it an S13 or an S14?

Haha I know this question makes me sound quite noobish, I didn't even want to post it, but I figured what the hell might as well get some input.

It's a black s13 coupe.

get some steel wheels at the junkyard or something. dont spend money buying another wheel to match it.

Yeah that's pretty much where my mind is headed.

Since I don't like the wheels anyways. Crappy fitment and not really my style.

[BTW... I bought a month of carfax unlimited and don't need it now.

Sooo, if you need something carfax'ed PM me.]

[Gnnr]

Put the stock wheels on...

Congratz On Ur 240sx

I highly doubt someone decided to steal just 1 wheel. prolly hit a curb ...and told you that. check the all the suspension and make sure it drives straight.

Nah, it really was stolen.

They took the most random shit and then ditched the car.

Test drove it today and did a thorough inspection of what could be done on spot.

[trsilvias13]

happen to my friend before too. They put a spare on and stole one wheel. It was pretty funny (well only to me)

Haha yeah apparently the trouble to get the first wheel off because of the locks was more than it was worth so they left the others.

[ESmorz]

Update*

I brought it home today and it is nice, need to take the ricer-tastic wing off of it and such before I bring out in public but yeah, this thing is cleeean.

Now I just need to find 1 identical wheel to the ones on there, so I can actually drive it until I have enough cash for some nice wheels.

[S14DB]

buy some steelies or SE's and dump those.

Thats a nice x-mas gift to yourself! Congrats on your new ride!

Well it'll cost about the same, and even though they are really crappy wheels they still look better than beat up old stock wheels.

However, I have also been looking into finding some.

[beetlejuice]

You can get a set of decent fitment 15s on ebay for $200-$300...

...or you can go down to your local junkyard or pick-a-part and get a set of cheap wheels.

Steelies look better than dookie fitment aftermarket wheels.

Steelies say, "Hey, I was put on this car so my owner can drive around for the least money possible. I may be cheap, but I'm functional."

Dookie fitment aftermarket wheels say, "I can't believe this asshole paid money for wheels that fit like shit."

You can sell SE/steelies for what you bought them for. I doubt you can say the same for the BSA's

Yeah, I would much rather just get rid of these things, since they are quite ghetto... I mean I'd be willing just to sell the tires which are brand new and just toss the wheels, my dad just doesn't want a ton of wheels and tires laying around the yard.

I'll call up the local salvage yard and look through some classifieds for some.

[mayco_86]

Congratulations on the car bro.

[Fibercus]

Congrats on your new 240

[ESmorz]

I got some stock wheels. Once I throw those on I'll take some pics or something.
Thanks to all you, the ones who were actually helpful.

There is certainly a reason I don't want those BSA's... the fact they are fuggggg and ghetto being reason one lol.

Don't worry about the new years thing. I definitely feel ya. I got 4 hours of drunk sleep -_-... so bad sleep.
