Do those wheels fit our cars? With +40mm backspacing? I have a 97 SE 5-speed.

Size: 15x7
Pattern: 5x114.3
Offset: +40mm
Hub Bore: 73mm
Weight: 15 lbs

 

They'll sit sunk like a mother****er but they'll fit.

Get some hub rings with them as well.

 

15x7 though?!? are you just using these for the track?

 

Yes for the track, 205 50 15 Mickey thompson drag radials.

Do you mean spacers?

Has anyone actually tried them?

 

No. You need hub rings because the center bore on the wheel is bigger than 66.2mm. You can get them on eBay for extremely cheap.

 

What size hub rings do I need?

Surely I can get them locally...? I don't like dealing with ebay.

Are those good?

It says 66.56 to 57.1 mm.

 

You need 66.1mm to 73mm rings. Just look up Maxima hub rings on eBay.

 

Found some:

Nice and they're metal FTW. Plastic ones suck.

 

Curious why you say that bout the plastic ones?

 

I've had a few that have broken in the past. I doubt that would've happened if they were metal.

 

I've melted plastic hubcentric rings on the road course. very doubtful that would be an issue on the street or at the drag strip though.

anyways, yes those will work. they also make them in 15x7.5 and 15x8. the 15x8s are really rare though. i bought one of the only sets i could find probably 3-4 years ago, and sold 2 of them to aaron.
