hey, i saw a 240 coupe the other day rocking the sentra spec-v wheels in the back and it looked hawt. I searched forum and found a pic of someones car with the wheels in the back too. so i was wondering, do the wheels not fit in the front? or what?i dont know the spec's but it should be 17x7 40 offset. not sure. and if anyones selling a set im looking for it plz thx. theyre by far the best looking 4-lug stock rims that will fit on a 240sx. agreed?

They fit, I know of someone who has all 4 on their car, running 215/45/17 Kumho 711 tires on them.

It doesn't look bad, especially if the car's lowered, but it'll probably look better with some spacers.

You can pick them up cheap too IIRC.

They fit all around, they are far from flush being a +50ish offset, barely clear the stock shocks and brakes. An autocross buddy of mine had a SpecV, and I stole his wheels one day:

Hey, well i currently have them on my car and I ended up having to put spacers on them. With Cusco coil-overs they kinda rubbed on the inside tire but after bringing the camber straight it solved that problem. I have 3mm spacers in the front and 6mm spacers in the rear. Actually the two pics shown the spacers aren't on cause that was the day I first day I tired the rims.

wow smily, ur car looks really clean in the pics. well, since i gotta get spacers, i mite as well just try to look for some other 4 lug wheels, but i guess if i find a cheap set of spec-'vs, then getting spacers is no problem? all depends on price. im running tokico blue's with tien s-tech's there should be no problem rite?

Yeah for those size spacers it's really cheap. I think for all 6 of mine (3mm each, doubled them in the back) it only cost me 40 bucks. so honestly you have nothing to loose and you get decent looking OEM wheels. I wanna later on do a five bolt conversion and get some deep dish wheels but for now i'd rather rock these and use the rim money and throw an engine in my ride. Even though people knock them all the time, SE-r wheels really don't look bad on an s13

Oh man, for some reason I was thinking about the 6 spoke ones that comes on the newer SE-Rs? I don't even remember if they're on the newer or older ones.

But in either case, those look good on S13s too.

Hey did anyone put Z32 brakes inside these wheels yet (the 5 spoke se-r wheels)? Do they clear?

I have a pair that I use for track spares sometimes, I hate them tho. They are beyond sunk, even with massive spacers. But the good thing is that they are dirt cheap.

I found out what rims they are from the meshies thread.

However, what kinda specs on those? Since you have Z32 brakes on, I must ask you, are they the 30mm or the 26mm ones? And also, did you have to run a spacer?
