drzed Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 I'm looking for a set of drag race wheels for my 260Z. Must be 4 on 4 1/2" stud spacing and 15". Rears to be 7" or 8" wide and fronts 4" - 6" wide but will look at others. These are for a stock bodied late 260Z with rolled rear fender lips. Still using stock suspension but may convert to coil overs for more tire room if required. At this point I'm looking to run 26-8.50 15 MT drag slicks on the rear and front runners or sportsmans on the front but have not purchased them yet so may look at your available tires as well. Will look at any wheels but would prefer something lightweight. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much? Could I get a couple of pics? Can I get a backspace measurement? Any idea how much they weight? 2 or 4 available? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RebekahsZ Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Turbo "Swashtica" wheels fit great. I've seen 235-60-15s mounted on the back w/ stock springs and stock fenders. I currently have 155-80-15s on the front of mine and 225-50-15s on back. Rim is 6 inches wide and is fine for these size tires. I run it front and back.

Looks like I'll need something with a small positive offset. Thanks anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some of these and am leaning this way for now. Mine are actually snow flakes and they are even heavier by about 2 pounds each but the offset is about right. The 235/60/R15 MT ET street radials I'm looking at recommend minimum 6.5" wide wheels but I guess 1/2" less might still work OK. Thanks for the info.

sticky280zx Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 i have some turbo wheels as well and they are 15x7 i wouldnt bulge those slicks on those flakes, normally a 215 is a much as you want on that 6" rim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
