Hi guys, I've been looking at various wheels and am thoroughly confused as to what you use to determine if a set of wheels either fits or can be widened to fit on a 73' 240z. What method do you use? I am looking at 14" SSR Star Formula rims but have no way of knowing if they either a) fit or b ) can be made to fit via widening/springs? I found a guy who does have these on his 240z but he said he had them widened and gave me the following: -front 14×8 5+15 Toyo 185-60-14" -rear 14×10 5-47 Toyo 195-55-14" - broader 13cm rear + flares - widened fiberglass front fenders (does that mean wide zg fender flares??) Is this enough to buy the wheels and send them to a shop that can "make them fit"? Currently, I have stock I apologize for my ignorance but I'm a bit overwhelmed looking up tire aspect ratio, tire width, wheel width, offset, backplate, bolt pattern, etc. as these are all new terms to me. Below is the setup I want to get, implemented on that 240z. -
ive done a search and am still looking for more info, soooo many threads. i'm looking at the 15x9 front and 15x10 rear, both -28 offset. can some one chime in and help me figure out what needs to be done to my 240 that sits on eibachs currently(lowered about 1.2"). will i need just the regular flares, or wide body with this offset, and what else can i expect to have to change? in a dream world it would be great if i could fit without flares, but im thinking these are gonna stick out ugly. im thinking with this offset, i should be ok with the current springs, no need for coilovers. just dont want to buy these rims and have bigger issues than i plan on. thanks for any help and guidance.
