Will 300 ZXTT brakes work w/stock wheels?

If I did a 300zx twin turbo brake upgrade, would my 96' SE stock wheels still run w/out problems. If not,what about 97'-99' SE stock wheels?

I believe the min is 17's... and even with 17's you need the correct offset and or spoke design...

if you are upgrading to Z brakes .... you will not be able to run the stock Maxima wheels.... the spokes hit the calipers.... I guess you could run the stockers with spacers..... but that might be more of a pain than replacing the wheels.... BTW the stock wheels for a 300ZX TT are 16s .... the NA wheels work great

I would never suggest spacers. The brakes will definately not clear Max stockers as was stated. Run teh 300ZX rims. I run Enkei DM5s, and they work great.

What about 5th gen 17's? I have 18's for the summer,but i run my stockers in the winter, and i could get 5th gen stockers more easily than i could get 300zx wheels!
