gen 3 aftermarket wheels on a gen 4?

I have a question some one may know the answer to. i have a 1989 SE and last year i bought some SSR GT1 18" wheels with 225/40 18 tires. well i love the look and the handling, but i am thinking of getting a gen 4 so i can supercharge it. will the wheels fit? does any one know about affset on gen 3 versus gen 4 maximas? I hope some one can help me!
thanks,
MARK

The offset is the same to my knowledge. I know the bolt pattern is definitely the same. Actually I am sure that the offset is the same because lots of guys put fourth gen and even fifth gen tires and wheels on our cars and they bolt right up, no spacers or anything needed.

Offset requirements are NOT the same. 3-gens can tolerate less offset and not rub the outside. 4-gen can tolerate more offset w/o rubbing on the inside.

Since you don't list the width or the offset, there's no way to tell. But since you only have 225s, you are "probably" okay.

jeff is correct. yet the wheels should fit fine anyway. there is some room there. you can get away with 30-40mm.
