I was going to bid on these and have been in conversation with the seller through mail several times.

They are 19" and not 18 as stated, but after asking about the pcd and bore, he put up the last pic and confirmed to me that they wont fit the zed, such a shame as they would have looked pretty cool.

 

I suggested he change the heading of the sale as he will have a problem under false advertising. Also he is going away for two months to Germany on thurs, so any buyer would have no chance of sorting it out after

What PCD did he say they where? you can get spacers that change that, my AH3 zed, had PCD 100x5 alloys on, with a 25mm spacer that changed them from 100x5 to 114.3x5

 

anything is possible. Edgar Ferman was running BMW wheels on his using an adapter spacer.

They are 5x112 and a 66.6 bore, i did say to him they would fit with adapted hubcentric spacers, im not sure i want to go down that route. Just looking for some wheels to replace mine to get them refurbed

there ya go, dont let a good thing pass you by, its a horrible feeling.

But they will push out the wheel another 1.25" on the et of the wheels may not be ideal and i dont know the reserve on the rims yet, he may want silly money.

I have no experience with them but have heard of people using wobble nuts for this purpose...

Hi guys, I have gone down this path..... here in South Africa the selection of 17/18/19" alloys in the 5x114.3 pcd for my 300zx was very very limited especially in my taste.

I found a really nice set of 19" 5x112 pcd which is a common Audi fitment (narrow/wides) and purchased a set of wobble nuts (m12 1.25) from a vendor in the UK. They were quite cheap although the shipping killed it but you got to do what you got to do..... There were no mods to do at all, wheels bolted up perfect with no issues.

I was looking at these thanks for the neads up Graham :thumbup1:

i've been watching these wheels on ebay too, would look the nuts on a zed. although don't think i'm guna have a bid as don't think they would fit with my lowered suspension.

purchased a set of wobble nuts.

 

How do these actually work then?? Surely if the holes in wheel don't match the holes in hub, then its going to cause massive fitment issues??

Hi Guys, I am pumagt(home) and antman(work) on this forum......anyway this is how they work. The hole diameters in the alloys are much larger than the stud diameter, so the 112 pcd alloy will fit onto the hub but you will see that the 114 studs are not in the centre of the wheel holes but slightly to the out side of the wheel holes.

The wobble nut is a wheel nut with a thick concave washer that is permanetly attached but can move around the nut. So when you offer up the wobble nut it threads onto the stud and the concave washer will automatically sit offset to the nut and stud but seats perfectly into the wheel concave. I hope my explanation was clear.
