15x7 Riken mesh rims...

any one know from experience or just know if they will fit on a 81 280zx 2+2?

my 6 in wide enkei's just clear the springs

and what about the price? $125 is what hes asking, they have never been mounted, basically brand new

if i wasnt poor or a highschool kid with no money id already have them no matter if they fit or not

OMG buy them!

Yes they fit. I had the same ones on a 280ZX for years. There's even room for 15x8 if you had wheels that size.

They're worth roughly $300-500 a set. $125 is cheap! I sold mine for 450 a couple years ago. mine were Enkei though. zero offset 15x7

this is at a swap meet and today is the last day... there are two perfect center caps but he says he forgot the other two at home and he will send them to me... this is where i get worried but i know there are replacement center caps (like the ones with the Z)

hell i wish one of you guys was in south ga to buy em i dont want some *** hole to get em and put them on a civic...

haha i didn't know riken made wheels. i have riken tires and i love them. much better grip than the old tires that cost much more. they're holding up pretty well so far too.

well i didnt know much about the wheels the first time i saw them, got home and did the research and was like ok pack it up and lets go but we didnt...

and i would have got them yesterday but it was real cold around here yesterday and all the vendors packed up and left early and the guy at the gate wasnt letting any one in...

but i think i might have a chance at getting them next year, the vendor only had about 7-8 sets of rims and a couple valve covers and carbs so im thinking they only come to this particular swap meet
