nazar Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I have always liked 5 spoke wheels on a Z with a lip but didnt want to spend a fortune, so i settled on these: its the ROH zs wheel but in a special edition dark model. I will do 17x8.5/17x9.5 BUT they dont make them in our bolt pattern, so I will get the mustang pattern(5x4.5) and was thinking of the hub adapters My question is, with ZG flares, will this work? How far out do the spacers push the wheel? I was thinking 245/265 tires Help me out guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaime240z Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 If I were you I would order the wheels and the flares. Once you have them in hand, you can mock them up on your car and decide how thick you will need your wheels adapters to be. This will allow you to decide where your wheels will end up in the wells/flares. I believe you can custom order wheel adapters to your specific thickness. Just my 2 cents.

v8dats Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 why not do a 5 lug conversion? you can use the z31 front hubs and redrill the rears. a quick search should do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed260Z Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 There are a ton of posts on how to convert to 5 lug on this site. most of this is done while trying to get bigger brakes on our Z's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karay240 Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 this may not be a concern since you are talking about spacers to convert to 5 lug; however, i'd like to express a concern. to my knowledge, those roh wheels are for standard nissan rwd offset--meaning 240SX. the offset on these cars are waaay too different. the 240SX uses anywhere around a +35ish offset, whereas the S30 utilizes more of a negative offset. when looking for wheels, make sure you look @ offset before purchase.

jaime240z Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 those wheels are mustang fitment and camaro fitment specific Well if that's the case just get the AZC 5 lug kit. It is designed to work with Mustang specific 5 lug wheels. When I ordered my CCWs I gave them my specs and they said "OK, we'll send you a set of Mustang wheels." Even my receipt from them says Mustang GT offset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
