s_dudinski Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Have a set of these that came with the car, i rather like the look but can't use them. does anyone know what are these and are they worth anything to anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftover z Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 They look like Appliance wheels. Price depends on what size (13, 14, 15" ?) and width (5, 6, 7 etc). If they are 13", they won't fit a Z. Look like something I've seen on 510's. Somebody who likes that '80's look might have interest if the price is right.

mgood Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 They look just like mine, mine are original to the car, I got them from the dealer back in 1976. They are Appliance wheels, the centers are no longer available, you can get the Eagle centers and lugs from a place called Masseys in Ok (405) 239-2010).Mine are 14 x 6.The tires are Goodrich TA as you can see and are 205-70-14's.

s_dudinski Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 those are 14" came off the 1971 240Z i have, useless to me due to brake upgrades. thanks for the answer. i think i might just toss them, although they did look good on the car.

mgood Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 clean them and polish them and sell them. they are worth at least $150 for the set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftover z Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Those wheels were NOT factory. They were made by Appliance Wheels. A lot of dealers did add-on options, using various aftermarket wheels, window coverings, etc. Some people may think they were factory, but they were just something the car dealer put on after the car was shipped over.

Globerunner513 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I also have a set of these. Hopefully there's someone willing to buy them. Wondering if painting the centers black or gold might attract more people? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daeron Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Only one way to find out: Ebay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piston Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 i dont think the ones in first pic are original since the lip looks kinda huge. the ones i have only has a lip of 1 1/2". its more original generic looking compare to the above pic.

19762802+2 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I have some rims just like these except the lip isn't smooth it has a small step for example, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
