turbeau Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 hey inZane, those rears in the pic do not look like a 9". I thought a nine inch rim whould sit flush with the fender. what size tires are in the pic? whatever the size the car looks good and the stance in awsome. also, for everyone else. On ebay now there are some staggered Rota Shakotans 8x15 and 9x15 for like $720. someone please buy these and put on car and tell me how they fit on stock fenders and what tire size. and pics of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa721 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Has anyone seen these wheels on a 240-280z? ROTA WHEEL SHAKOTAN 15X8 +0 http://www.18racing....l_shakotan.html this company has recently moved to the USA..... http://www.hayashiracingusa.com/ ..... i read it on JDM legends blog.... http://www.jdmlegends.com/blog/ ....not sure if this is a good thing in the long run, i think it totaly cool we can get them now if we have the funds, but it takes away from the exclusivity for those whom already own them.... dont get me wrong if anyone wants to donate a set to my project im down! lol....

texis30O Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I like some of their wheels, but too small for my taste. I know that is old school style and all, but if they had them in 16/17 I would seriously consider... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RebekahsZ Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) RBR Gun Metal 16X8. Stock fenders - unrolled. Have EMI camber plates in front giving plenty of room. Need to install EMI-style camber plates in rear to allow clearance at full bump. If anybody has a tip to allow the center caps to fit on the front - I'm listening-PM me. Please resize pics. 3900x2600 is too large Edited May 30, 2011 by RB26powered74zcar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahraini240z Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 my 16x8 & 16x7 XXRs, front wheels got spacers http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/100517-my-fairladys-73-240z-03-350z/page__pid__942463#entry942463 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzydicerule Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 16x7 0 offset Konig Rewinds with 225/50ZR16 Dunlop Direzza Z1 Starspecs. The tires are a bit tall, but i like the look, i just need to trim the front lower valence for clearance. Fronts have a 5 Millimeter spacer to clear the 4 piston brake upgrade Keep in mind, the car is an unfinished project. Rear shot, the door isnt fully closed, but yes, its misaligned. clearance between tire and valence, this is the drivers side, the passenger side actually touches...

RebekahsZ Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 225/50/16 Kumos (cheap) all 4 corners. EMI camber plates in front with 3 degrees camber-plenty of room all the way around. Rears have no camber plates, but have them in a box to install-wheels would scrub on outside of fender at a good sized bump without them. I think a few degrees of camber will solve the problem as it moves top of the tire IN. Will get to it when I get car off jackstands on this infernal LS2 swap! Thanks for the compliment.

LoneStarS30Z Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 (edited) 15x8 -26 15x10 -26 225/50/15 all around. No markings at all on the wheels, so not sure what brand, but look to be Enkei 92's? ZG flares aren't wide enough, got BAMF flares waiting for install one day. Edited June 8, 2011 by LoneStarS30Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VenomousType Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 do you have some down the side shots of your ride, lone? id like to see how far they go past the regular ZGs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneStarS30Z Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Sorry this is the best I've got right now, I bet it would tuck a bit better if I had coilovers and the ability to add some camber, but the bamf flares should work just fine. If I remember I'll try to grab a better angle when I get the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

un-fairlady z Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 It's always been so hard to find affordable wheels for these cars. It's nice to see manufacturers stepping up. Had lots of wheels over the years, but I think I like these ones the best so far. 14x6 and 14x9 watanabes inzane, your car looks amazing and its nice to see it back on the ground. what ever happened to the epsilons you had when I first saw your car? those were gorgeous my current set up. 15x9 centerlines, pokes out way more than i'd like but it should be fine after i work on my suspension and install the flares. one thing at a time....
