well i'm trading my iron crosses for these...

they are 195/65R15's with great tread.
The fronts will have spacers to clear the struts but the rears won't need them.

i'll be tossing em on my 77

those look like they belong on and eagle talon

skittle

yeah but at least i'll have more tyre choices. they were on his 510

skittle

don't worry they are not going to stay chrome. they look alot better in person. I think i'll media blast them and paint em flat black or something like that.

If you put a spacer on the front, and not on the back... You're going to have serious handling issues.

This has been covered in great detail.

Either put spacers (Actually, spacers suck... you need hub adaptors) on all four or not at all.

how much spacer is needed, like 5mm, or 30mm? spacers work for small distances, but anything larger, go adapters like rod says

skittle

they are like the 5mm just enough to keep them from rubbing on the front struts. In the guys 510 they worked just fine and his has a turbo motor in it. We will see though.

skittle

found out that the rims are ROTA rims so not sure if thats good or bad

snwbrderphat540

rota are good rims.. however i rarely see them with the proper offset.. they are primarily used by honduh people... they are affordable fairly strong and pretty damn light.

Bleach

510's have mid offset so if the wheel is narrow enough they can run modern FWD offset type wheels. Those are just wrong on your Z... wrong! They'll be tucking inside those deep fenders worse than the stock 14" six stars!

Get some zero offset 15's

skittle

yeah but trying to find some is the hard part... i'll toss them on and see how the look/perform if no go then i'll sell em after i take off the tyres and put them on my other 5 stars.. lol

Bleach

There's some nice 15" Enkei wheels in the Marketplace

snwbrderphat540

yeah but i hear the seller is a real T-bag. but idk i dont usually judge people

Bleach

you should buy those wheels but don't let that crazy guy pick you up from the airport... you might not make it to your Final Destination!

snwbrderphat540

i like my stock wheels... adn when i do get my own set they are gonna be fatty as rims. lol not ridic.. but like 9 9.5 in the rear maybe 10 and 8.5 up front...

skittle

ok i found out the names of the rotas the are rota antares. they were discontinued 10 years ago. they have a -12 offset, so what size hub adapters should i get and from where?

snwbrderphat540

a -12??? you wouldnt need any offset.. it might actually stick out of the wheel well. also.. those are old as hell haha... idk... i say save up and then buy rims you truly want...

skittle

i sorta have grown fond of them, so i might just media blast em and powder coat gunmetal gray with a polished lip... even though there is no real "lip"

skittle

maybe i'm wrong about the offset... i've googled them and can't seem to find offset info on them

snwbrderphat540

they look liek + offset with no lip and such.

skittle

Yeah I'm Just Photochopping To See What I Might Like The Most. Tonight I'll Mount One Just To See What It Looks Like.
