Llittle_Llama Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 do those need to be bored like the other pathy wheels? Quote Link to comment
Velvetpants57 Posted April 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 no but apparently the ofset is wrong but i swear i have seen them on other 521s Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Do you have a pic of the rims you have? Do they look like this ? I swear the old 15 inch Pathfinder rims had more than 5 spokes. They should bolt right up w/ no fittment or rubbing issues. Hainz has them on his 521. And no these dont need to be bored.

gen4maxima536 Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 He has some 205/65-15s on the wheels right now Quote Link to comment
Velvetpants57 Posted April 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 thanks rob. as i cannot see the truck right now. do you remember exactly where it was hitting? Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 my truck w/pathfinters the wheels weights could hit the rear shock plate. Grind it. Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 They also could be rubbing the E brake cable. My 17x7 Denali rims did that on my 521 & chewed through the wire cover on 1 side & snapped the cabe on the other side. You can use a spacer behind the rim that "may" help bring it out.

gen4maxima536 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Seems like it was hitting the frame, we'll have to tryholding them up again to see how much room is needed it was starting to rain when i was trying to get them bolted up. Quote Link to comment
