ttarget Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I must have 18" wheels on my 240Z 1970 mod. because big brakes. My car have original chassi. Can anyone tell me how big wheels I can put on my car? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fischer183 Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I put on some Enkei RPF1 16x8 +25 wheels today with 15mm spacers (effective +10mm spacing) and the inside rubs on the stock spring perch standing still. I will try first trimming the lower perch then if that doesn't work, I may have to go with coilovers. This is with 225/50R16 hankook tires. Update: I trimmed the lower perch, and now the tire clears when down or up, but the spring still is about 2-3mm away from the tire. Since this is definitely not enough clearance, I will be checking camber, then maybe converting to coilovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you getting some rubbing? Did you have to roll the rear fender lips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustyfriend Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 no rubbing, i am just saying that the fit it tight behind the wheel. no worries, i've just never put on a zero offset wheel. i have no complaints and i am running 245-45-16 tires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazeum Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I'm in the process of changing my 17"x7 wheels with 15"x7 on my 240z. I'm still debating for tire size. Everybody on the board advices to use 225/50-15 which is smaller than stock wheel diameter (195/70-14). Why don't people choose 225/55-15 instead which would match stock diameter? Can you help me? Is it because of look? Performance (less side wall)? Because actually 225/50-15 is stock diameter? (I've seen 240z with 175/70-14 which is the same diameter as 225/50-15) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveosupremeo Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 yes 225/55 would be ideal but i think only michelin makes that tire and in only one style. there are quite a few manufacturers that make a 225/50 on the other hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
