I had a quick question about the 300zx N/A wheel fitment on our cars. Hopefully someone knows offhand, I posted on the tires and wheels section but not many people look over there. Do the wheels fit without spacers? I bought some today with tires for $325 decent tread too and I would like to put them on tonight if possible. I know they are 16x7.5 and the offset is 45. Tires are 225/50/16.

 

I'd say to search and read the stickies, but since everyone is completely ignoring the stickies and nobody can search, then I'll flat out tell you. front will fit fine, rear will need a 3/8" spacer.

 

Thanks, and sorry I didn't have time to read the stickies and I still need to become a donating member. I try not to post without searching but I was in a bind, thanks for the info.

 

There's always the try and find out since you already bought the wheels/tires.

 

that'd be too easy

 

I just wasn't sure how to tell if they were going to be a problem or not. I put the front ones on and there is gap that I can hardly fit my index finger behind, and I have small fingers. I guess the back is the only problem though and I just didn't want to have to take them off and then put them back on to run to the store for spacers, that's why I asked, I figured someone might know right off the top of thier head. Thanks for the replies.

 

I've seen a lot of others say 3/8", but I used 1/4" without problems. I got my spacers from Pepboys for like $10. If the spacers are too wide, there will obviously be less thread for the lug nuts which is quite worrisome. Even when I had 1/4", I was worried about the lug nuts breaking, which actually never became a problem. By the way, nice purchase on the wheels and be sure to post some pics (I always liked the Z wheels)!

 

yeah, I'll try to figure out how to post pics tonight. I've just never done it before.

 

you need a hosting site like maxima.cardomain.com. you can upload your pics there and then post the link here.
