rim offset for winning stance

[sledn410]

hey all in the process of surfing the net i have come across some maddd wheels that a guy distributes in perth where im from there pretty aggresive and thats exactly what i want.

i know a lil bit from searching that dattos and such run alot lower offset than a newer car say a 180 . anyway i have found som 114.3 15x 9 -10 jap wheels with gold centres and big dish ..would a neg 10 fit on a 410 il be going for prob the most amount of stretch i can and am hoping the rim will def be outside the wheel arch . i can always fine tune with bolt on spacers if it doesnt give enough but does anyone know if i may run into clearance probs moreso on the inside like suspension or brakes ect running 9 inch bad boys ?? cheers

jdm classics that i have always loved ... 15x9 -10 offset in my opinion i find them pretty maaad !! and there cheap as brand new . wat u reckon?

Just for laughs,I threw my SSR reverse meshies on my 67 411. 15x8 staggered offset with a 195/55/15 tire,they were perfectly "hellaflush" on a 93 240sx (S13).They have a LOT more lip than the wheel you picture(front approx 2 1/2", rear 3 1/2"-4")So probably more offset as well. I have no issues with clearance inside,but it is close,and they sit about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch (you convert to MM) outside of my fenders,plus the tire bulge.So my guess is that you would run into clearance problems on the inside. When I pull them back off to lower the car,Ill snap a couple pics,and measure the offset,should be able to get an idea of how yours would sit.Hope you can make them work.Spacers will be your friend.

sweet cheers man yeah i had some te37s on my 180 that were +12 and they were hella flush so im interested to see how -10 sits but the standard wheels are well in the guards so yheres lots of room to play with

any pics yet to what your rims looks like on the 411. i wanna get some wheels for mines coming time soon but dont know a good offset since i cant just drive down to a tire shop.

Man those wheels are Cherry! What are they called?

 

They won't fit a 410, they will hit on the inside. To fit 9" wide, they need to stick outside the body a bit. You could use wheel spacers.

those wheels are a knockoff of Hayashi Raching's "Sakura"

when i was sourcing wheels for my truck from my guy in japan i asked him if he's

seen any. he said that theyre over... i wanna say 2.5 or 3k? thats for the originals,

they arent made anymore. besides theyre only 4 lug so they wouldnt fit my truck anyways. sigh.

[sledn410]

Yep they are the ones ! The originals are pretty rare too and most people that have them are not interested in parting with them . I actually had a guy last week ask me about them and then tell me real ones are worth around the 3k mark also
