I was actually looking at these for mine, but forgot about the offset.. Where did you get your spacers? I presume the fronts had to be spacers with stud extensions, and the rears just 3mm shims?.. They do look good on your car, what rubber did you put on them, profile etc.?

Love them! I originally considered them before getting my last set of wheels, wish I had got them now..look even better fitted to a zed.

They're fuggin' gorgeous!!

 

I......must.....resist.....!!! Must........stay........stock!!!

 

:rofl:

VERY NICE ..what size disc are you running at the front , ?? i would have thought the caliper would have cleared on stock discs and calipers if they were advertised as for a 300zx fitment ...........would like some myself but on a red car the centres would have to be gold or black i think ...............anybody any good at photoshop :))

Hhhmmmmmm, They look strangley familiar!!

 

Nice one Matey.

 

I got the same ones on mine in October and love em to bits but mine are under the Ruff Racing label from California! (see my link)

 

Warning!!!!! - The rims are not laquered and will start to tarnish as soon as they get a little wet. Get yourself some Maguiars Alloy wheel polish ASAP. I've tried everything else on these rims over the past few months and this is the only one that cleans and waxex them at the same time.

 

And you drive a shortie, you must have taste!!!

Thanks for all you comments guys much appriciated, as for the spacers the front do NOT need stud extentions the nuts have around 6 .5 turns on them which is well enough.

They are the ones on ebay Gumball.

 

Thanks again guys !

10mm slip ons without longer studs i dont like the sound of it .You sure there not 6mm i always thought 6mm was the max without using longer studs .

5mm clears standard calipers on these wheels.

6.5 turns

 

That aint a lot of threads considering the forces involved when accelerating, braking, cornering etc.

gotta recommend you get some longer studs, better safe than sorry

I had to put 5 mm spacers on the front of mine and i am only just happy with the length of the stud. 10 mm seems waaaay to much for stock studs all imo of course. i just wouldn't want to ruin such nice rims.

I am on the point of ordering a set of these, but need to clear the spacer issue up, as I am ordering a set of spacers with the wheels..

Are you running bigger brakes Buddy? or are these spacers the absolute minimum required to get them to fit standard brakes? I was hoping to have to just fit 6-7mm spacers all round to make up the offset difference :confused:

 

Any help appreciated.
