Ap1 S2000 Rims

I was looking for a set of rims and came across a set of ap1 s2000 rims im kind of interested in. Before I jump the gun and get them, well these fit w/ no modifications? ie, no wheel spacers and wheel bore will fit perfectly?

They should fit. The bolt pattern is the same and from what I can tell, the offset should be fine.

Alright, now Im deciding between the s2000 rims, some other tenzo rims I found on craigslist or a set of 2007+ spec v rims. Anyone run the new spec v rims on a 4th gen? Not sure how it'll look, but id imagine it would look decent. Opinons?

Sort of reminds me of the altima ser rims but a little less flashly. I like the way they look off the car, just dont know what theyll look like on a 4th gen.

They might not fit. The ap1 wheels have a high offset.
Front:
16" x 6.5", +55 offset, 205 tire
Rear:
16" x 7.5", +65 offset, 225 tire

Stock 4th gen wheels are 15/16" x 6.5" +40 offset. The fronts should fit fine, but I doubt the rears will clear the struts.

The fronts will sit 15mm closer to the struts and the rears will sit 38mm closer to the strut than stock.

And onee moooaarrrr tinnnggggg.

To get Honda wheels to fit on Nissan cars you have to shave out the hubs on them, the bolt pattern may be the same but the wheel CAN NOT sit flush on our hubs because they are bigger.

If this were not true, i'd be rockin NSX rims right now.

Every set of rims I find has a problem with them. Im just going to keep it simple and get new tires for my 350z rims. Quick question tho. I was planning on going 225/45/18 all around. Rims are 350z v1 touring rims. Will that be fine or will it make the rear look funny since the rear rims are wider.
