what's the bolt pattern on a 240? if it's 5x114.3 (or somethign like that) then yes, with the right offset, but why? wouldn't it be easier to swap between generations? the s14 wheels don't look all that bad.

-yes

The other 240's use 4X114.3
'89 240sx bolt pattern is 5X114.3 lug pattern
'87 RX7 bolt pattern is 5 x 4-1/2 (114.3 mm)

240SX or a 300ZX rims use 5X114.3 lug pattern.

240sx = 5 lugs

89 240's were all 4 lug. But the 240sx came with 5 lug. so if your is a sx then it is 5lug

i don't think there's a huge difference between the se and the regular. it's more than just a wing though
