Might need a slim spacer due to the width in the front...

very nice rims!!! they should fit. take a measure off your stock ones to find out how far back they go, then measure those. the stockers are pretty much tucked as far back as they can get, well with wide tires at least.

I'm pretty sure they'll fit in the front. That's perfect.

I fit some 16x9 zero offset wheels on the front of my car. They did not hit the strut and they were flush with the outside lip of the fender. (would have possibly hit the outside fender on suspension travel)

and the back will fit easy. I had 16x10 zero in back. No issues

Thank you. I think I'm going with these wheels. I just need to get them to lower their price a bit..........okay a lot. Also thinking of powder coating the center piece black. What do you guys think?

black would be good, what color is your car. you could also go body match color or charcoal/gunmetal

Leave them as-is. Those wheels look great. I had Enkei mesh wheels with black centers. I stripped the paint and I liked the look a lot better just bare aluminum.

Its almost like those wheels were made for a 280ZX... I think the little bit of offset is perfect.
