Guest Anonymous Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 Just got through installing them and found out my swastica rims wont fit. The very front of the caliper rides on the inside face of the rim! My question is if i get the wheel spacers will it clear? I would also like to run a 11, maybe 12.5 inch width on the rears. Does any body make wide tires for the spacers lug pattern? Or should i just keep the rears the same and get a custom made application?? (plan to do swap out the drums for the 240sx package) thanks, franklin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueovalz Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 Set a straight-edge (next to the calipers) across the wheel mounting flange on the hub. From the edge that lies against the hub, measure the amount that the calipers overlap the straight-edge. If for example it's about 1", then thats roughly the amount of spacing you will need. I believe my old turbo wheels had about 1/8" clearance between the hub surface and the inside surface of the "spokes", which would then lessen this hypothetical amount down to 7/8" minium.
