Well my original plan was to sell my Sportmaxx's, buy the S14 wheels (getting a hell of a deal on them) and put the rest of the money towards my TII swap...

NIICE, Which SSR's you get??

seriously, those guys love to go through wheels like its cheap.
SSR SP1's, found some 18x10's (+24) with a good size lip on them man... if i was to order straight from a company or an online store, it would have taken 3 months and cost double for what i paid for, plus the guy i bought from threw in some new federal tires already mounted. All for 15 hundo.

i say for the GTR rims, itll be worth it. the look and size is perfect. plus at the most youll spend is 300 bucks. but you can always find deals on them. just make sure you get the GTR ones because the GTS are 16x6 ithink..

I used to have R32 GTS-T wheels on my old FC. I got them for $180 for all four with tires that had about 80% tread left on them. I loved how they look, just they could be wider. I am thinking on some GT-R rims for my TII tho. Either R33 GT-R (if I can find em) or R32 GT-R wheels.

heres to your request. I never got around to doing the fronts because i bought other rims. But with spacers they'd look okay. I do personally like the r33 rims but they are pricey.

yes they fit directly on as long as your bolt patterns match. ie 5x114. if your car is a 4 lug car they will not fit and yes you would need to do a 5 lug conversion.

240sx centerbore is larger than the FC, so 240 wheels fit on FC's. but FC wheels do not fit on 240sx's. i personally recommend you run hub rings with 240 wheels if thats what you plan on doing.

this thread is hillarious to me. my gf has a parts car GXL that is sitting on my old s14 5 lug wheels. sorry i don't have any pics of it.

her current daily 87 SE is sitting on my old s14 4 lug wheels. the stocker s14 4 luggers from 95-96 look like absolute *** on a 240sx but somehow they don't look bad at all on her FC.



even funnier, i have a set of 97 240sx 4 luggers (similar to late 90s G20 wheels) that are going on her FC next.

S14 wheels don't fit 'cuz the hub sizes are different. Off by 1mm but enough to mess up.
