SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 So i got some wheels of craigs and was totally happy about what i got. I was told they were Nissan Titan wheels with 95% tread left and for the price i was really happy. Little did i know i wasted my money. Come to find out that they are not the same lug pattern as my 720. So now im out $200 and have pretty much brand new Nissan Armada wheels (I think) with 95% tread. So the real question is what should i do? I called the guy back and he pretty much told me to F*** Off and that it was my fault he lied. So now what ? Any of the Ratuns'ers have ideas? Oic for the needy Quote Link to comment
Dirk Diggler Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Resell and ask $300 :) Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Resell ,,, be honest with what happened ,,, at that price someone will scoop them up ;) Quote Link to comment
SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Im not even asking that much lol. I just want them gone and at least $200 back. Any takers? lol Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Let me guess, either you asked him or he said they would fit. Well that's shitty. I think I would have assumed that they would being 6 bolt. Quote Link to comment
SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Well he told me they were Titan wheels and i did the search and lug pattern was the same. I got home and looked at how far apart my lugs were. Looked at those and was like shit... Just to make sure pulled the wheel and didnt work :( I think once i get a new carb im selling my truck for a 510. Maybe even straight trade.:mellow: Quote Link to comment

SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Did some research on the armada wheels and they are the same as nissan titans... FML whats going on i have no idea. Maybe my 720 is stupid. Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Maybe take wheel off truck paint ends of lugs ( just ends ) get pattern on piece of paper then hold paper up to back of wheel and look through holes to see if they match up.. and if ya resell the wheels just BE HONEST..

Wide14u Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 you did the front try the back ones the centers need to be machined maybe they might work Quote Link to comment
SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Just tried the backs and with lack of light and it being a tad bit nippley ill try in the mornig. And i Will also paint the studs as well i hope the work. I always wanted newer nissan wheels... Quote Link to comment
Wide14u Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 its worth a try good luck let us know Quote Link to comment
SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Will do. Any idea on how much it is to get the centers machined out if it does work? Quote Link to comment
chester Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 To me it looks like those are newer frontier wheels and they have a 6x114.3 bolt pattern if i am not mistaken. The rest of nissan/datsun trucks have the 6x139.4 bolt pattern. Dont qoute me on this i could be wrong, but i am pretty sure and sorry to hear. I also want some newer nissan wheels for my 620.

Hahaha quoted :lol::lol::lol:. Anyways want them? all you need is adapters lol. Balls any trades for any other 720 6 lugs wheels? Quote Link to comment
chester Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 well i would but the only wheels i have are the 14 5 spokes that are on my truck now and some pathfinders. so i dont think you would be interested in them. Quote Link to comment
hessianben Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 the newer (2005) Frontiers and maybe even the Titans/Armadas switched from the 6x5.5" pattern to 6x114.3mm. google that pattern and see if any other trucks have it, and if so, you can market it to them on Craigslist... or sell back to someone else with a 2nd gen Frontier. don't worry, $200 isn't a lot to lose in the craigslist game, you'll get it back.

SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 I have the old pathfinders lol. Thats why i wanted knew wheels. Maybe in the 5 spokes? Pics? Quote Link to comment
78kingcab Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 bummer that the lug is differnt.....thats really odd to me for i have used patfinder wheels on everything.....and i put titians on my 620 witch i have put my 620 wheels on 720s alot....hmmmm.....any way i had a guy machine my titians for 100.00 he did all 4 of them and it took about a hour....he had to take a 1/2 inch all around the hub... got them for 180.00 as dealer take offs after 1/2 was removed new 35 series tires these wheels made my truck really pop...good luck Quote Link to comment
chester Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 from what i found out in 05 the frontier and pathfinders went to the smaller pattern. and here they are cheap wheels. i know i have 3 of the center caps i will have to look for the forth Quote Link to comment
SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Dude no lie i would much rather have those... Idk tho should i sell them and get diff ones or buy adapters? oh and a closer look to compare with 78kingcab Quote Link to comment
chester Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 i found a site for adaptors and it would cost about 240 for all 4 prolly could find them cheaper i dont know. what ever you decide to do good luck Quote Link to comment
hessianben Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 looks like Dodge suvs/trucks used this pattern as well as some of the Cadillac CTS's Quote Link to comment
SoCaLKiDz Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Well i really do appreciate all of the help guys. If you can will you spread the word about the wheels? I would much appreciate it. Quote Link to comment
