For anyone who always wanted infini wheels....

i found these last night and almost blew my load.



Konig makes it under the Maxxim name. 16x7 (not as wide, but hey, you can squeeze a 245 on it), +35 offset. the website shows gold and black, but they're on ebay in silver. i've always wanted infini's, but never been able to find a set i could afford. only thing that worries me is i dont see any type of bolt pattern listed, and all the ones on ebay are 4x100. either way, nothing a local machine shop cant fix.

anyone got some infini emblems i can throw on those center caps?

not without re-drilling. 1st gens have a 4x110 bolt pattern, which is a very odd bolt pattern. i got some 17's for my gsl when i had it, but they were off a civic (4x100), and they didnt fit. afterwards i checked it out, and i think the only other vehicle i could find that had the same bolt pattern was an old toyota van.

however, there were a few compaines that did make aftermarket wheels, but they are few and far between. check the "for sale" forum, there's a wheel and tire section, i see 1st gen wheels there somewhat often.

very nice car, by the way.

... i read it wrong , thought it was 110, i didn't see 114 and got all hard

also , i think the offset is too big , I think the stock SA offset is closer to +20

That's hot.
I didn't know you can squeeze 245 on a 7" wide wheel?


Anyway, this is 4x100. and already looks like my wheels.

Or...you can just take a look in the For Sale section and find that someone was selling SIX of these things a few weeks ago...

yea, i saw em, trust me if i had the cash they would be on my car. but when you have three fc's, money can get tight. spent tonight pulling the trans out of my turbo, as a matter of fact.

you can get a 245 on stock TII 16's, which im pretty sure are 7' wide, but im sure you gotta have a decent size sidewall. i had some 245/50/16 nitto nt450, and they cleared just fine.
