I am typically from a early Nissan Z car site, but have had positive results posting wheel sales here as well since the 240sx uses the same 4x114.3 pattern. These wheels are REALLY deep and are quite gorgeous. You will need a wide body or flaring to make these fit.

I really really really hate to see these go. Basically what it comes down to is that I am in college and need money. In any case, I was going to eventually use these for a 240z race car. The two rear wheels are signed on the dish by four members of the BRE racing team. Peter Brock (BRE boss), Kirk Allegro (BRE mechanic), Floyd Link (BRE engine builder), and Trevor Harris (Suspension engineer for BRE, also did the Nissan GTP cars in the late 80's/early 90's).

They are 3-Piece Etoile brand 455C's. The fronts are 17x9.5" with approximately 3.75" BS, or around -38 offset, the rears 17x11.5" with approximately 4.25" of BS, or around -50 offset. I do not have a scale in my current location, but at one time I did weight these wheels. I do believe they were around the 17lb range if I remember correctly (quite light for wheels of this size), but do not hold me to this. The bolt pattern is 4x114.3. These wheels are massive and really should fit some beefy rubber.

Not to be cynical, but no, I do not know if these will fit YOUR car. I would be happy to help you figure out if they would though, but right off the bat, they are not going to fit under stock fenders.

The clear coat needs to be redone on a couple of the wheels and they are a little bit dirty, as indicated in some of the pictures. A little work will need to be done to get these cherry (I was planning on doing this... but alas I am selling them). If you have any inquiries about the wheels, feel free to PM me here or message me through eBay. Local pickup is acceptable, location Davis, CA.

Thanks guys!

Unfortunately not. They used to fit this style of wheel on Porsches, exotics, and such back in the 80's I do believe. Linked from Pelican parts:

well if they need to be redone the signatures will come off anyways to if you just want to display them I guess thats fine but if you will use them then thats a different story, whats your asking price anyways?

Fortunately Peter Brock's signature, as well as Travor Harris', are on one of the wheels that pretty much doesn't need to be redone at all. Floyd Link and Kirk Allegro's signatures are on probably the worse wheel, but depending on how and who does it, it is entirely conceivable to reclear that wheel with out lifting the signatures. It won't be perfect, but it will be very nearly perfect. I do not think the signatures are worth all that much, I just happened to get them signed when I met Peter Brock and those members of his team.

If you would like to more, please PM me. :)

These are so dope!

But i think you should give some sort of price though. This would help alot of people out, and make the sale much easier.
