The search suck for one. I got a set of titan rims 18x8 the only thing I saw is the off set might be a problem. I put one on the rear and it was about 1/4in from the frame. The fronts come close to the brake line holder when jacked up and wheel turned,so on the ground might be fine. Me I'm going to use 1/4in spacer all around and ARP wheel studs 2.5in long. A 40 series tire should fit the ones I've been looking at are 25-26in outer dia. Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 They will bolt up. Youll need to bore the center hole to 4 inches on the INSIDE only 1/2 inch deep to clear the hubs. You can just run the 1/4 inch spacers but then theres a few less turns for the lugs to secure the rim. Also you "may" need different lug nuts. Do a Google search to make sure. Quote Link to comment

The stock lug nuts from my steel wheels were too small in diameter for the rims. They started digging into the wheel itself as I tightened them. I used the following type iirc. I'll double check during my lunch hour , I should have some spares laying around somewhere. My memory isn't the best. Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Thanks guys. I believe i have 24 of those in a box in the garage. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Hmm, I never noticed any digging. Of course that was a long time ago and I didn't run the stock ones for long before I bought a new set. Quote Link to comment
