Stupid_fast Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Hey all, I got this idea from toyotacressida net where they have a wheel fitment gallery thread, I thought it would be a nice resource to have on here. Basically just a sticky thread where you post a picture of your wheel/ fitment, offset, tyre sizes, suspension setup, fender work, ect to give an idea of what fits... and a separate thread for z-cars? Maybe some offset measuring info in the main post too. I see lots of people asking "will X fit in blah offset???!!1/?1/!" ect, We have a wheel/tire section now and that's great, I think this would be a nice addition to it. Thoughts? edit, Quote from VintageRice, thanks for making this template! This can be a very valuable resource for all datsun peoples!

screamer510 Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Check out KMHafer's wheel fitment site. Google it. Kind of outdated now, and I like the idea you have. It would definitely clear up questions for more modern and JDM wheels. +1 Quote Link to comment

It would definitely clear up questions for more modern and JDM wheels. +1 Yeah, I've seen that site before. its nice and useful, but it has little to no pictures of how they look on the car. Also as you said a bit outdated. Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 That's kinda what the pics of your wheels thread should be doing. Quote Link to comment

Stupid_fast Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 The rim thread is nice, but its for posting rims... not rim fitment/ rims on cars... Quote Link to comment

nullbound Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Rear mods Flex -Form Composite Leaf Springs + small blocks (lowered 3 1/4" from stock). Kelvin Dietz telescoping traction bars What size blocks do you have? Also do you happen to have a pic of how close your rear wheels are to the springs? Thanks! Quote Link to comment
Son_of_a_Datsun_Guy Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 The blocks are about an 1 1/8" I believe. Are you wondering how close the interior of the tire is to the leafs? I don't know that I have a great picture of that, I think I've got some wiggle room in there, but I'd need to measure it out before I changed it. Quote Link to comment
Evaded Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Gonna bump this..... Good stuff and im lost with all the reading of wheel fitment on a wagon. Wheels are impossible to find for this thing without +0!! Wanna buy some Rewinds 15x7+0s great buy and everywhere!!! Can I run them? :confused: Eric Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 For anyone who is interested, rimtuck.com is a website that doe's exactly this. Fitment details and pic galleries. Only one 510 and one 620 on there right now, let's see if we can change that. Also, willtheyfit.net allows you to compare your current setup to any other setup. It's all based on typing in your measurements. It's awesome. 2 Quote Link to comment
