flatcat19 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 If those are too new, they are 6x135.00. Nissans/Dattos up until 2005 use 6x139.7 Be careful before you purchase. Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 lifted, but close http://community.rat.../39822-620-4x4/ These are rallye wheels. So not close to what OP listed. Quote Link to comment
baldredhead Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 should have known there was a picture i can't see at work. looked on the magic smrt phone and yeah, nevermind i have seen a datsun with those on it recently though. can't remember where though. Quote Link to comment
Tucson620 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 I'm running Chevy 15x8 rally (rallye ?) wheels with chrome trim rings on my 521. No pics handy. I researched this and saved thread links. - Chevy rally wheels duh - Another one - Ratsun - Chev Wheels thread Not much pics, but some discussion - 620 Wheel, Rims and Tires thread - No rallyes, but cool trucks there - Any one running 15x8's? Pics - Check out datto510's 521 with the red Rally wheels. - Show off your truck wheels Yore welcome. Not 620s, but here's a couple inspiring trucks. Quote Link to comment
Newkid Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 i havent bought them, but i like the look of the chevy ralleys i think ima end up picking some of those up cuz they really do look good on the datsuns, back to searching CL for a set...wait will the chevy rallies work with the disc upgrade also?? also what size tires are a good set to run on the chevy rallys and do i need spacers to run them?

flatcat19 Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 I don't know what came on the 620... but for the 521 it was 185/70r14 stock. 185/70r14 is 24.2" diameter. 195/60r15 is also 24.2" So on a 15x7, this would be ideal. So since these rally's are 15x8, a bigger tire would definitely fit. When I buy new tires for my rally wheels, I'm going after some 195/65r15's. As for the brake upgrade...these will fit. Those ones you originally posted don't appear to have enough dish. I think you would have rubbing problems IF they were able to fit on there. Quote Link to comment
Newkid Posted February 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 I found some chevy rallys on CL that I'm going to pick up tonight ill post pics when I get them Quote Link to comment
SKkeeterZ Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 why do mine stick out soo far Quote Link to comment
Newkid Posted February 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 my $100 score, now to figure out how to get those damn tires off and clean the up and paint them, anyone want some beauty rings Quote Link to comment
Tucson620 Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 my $100 score, now to figure out how to get those damn tires off and clean the up and paint them, anyone want some beauty rings Nice - I got almost the same deal. If you take off the balance weights with pliers, you can clean and paint the whole rim - no need to worry about overspray! :P Then you take 'em to the tire shop and they scar the crap out of your new paint job. What, the rings don't do it for you? Shiniest part on my truck! I ditched the "hubcaps" though - have two "4X4" ones. Quote Link to comment

Lee R Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 why do mine stick out soo far You probably have a lower offset. The lower the number, the more they "stick out". Quote Link to comment

Laecaon Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 You probably have a lower offset. The lower the number, the more they "stick out". I think there are only 1 offset of the rallye wheels. I just think he has a newer truck, which means not designed for low offset. Quote Link to comment

Laecaon Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 my guess is the older truck have shorter axles Well that is obvious with any sort of searching. But older trucks are also narrower than yours. So... New vehicles just cant take the same offset as old ones. Quote Link to comment
Newkid Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 got the tires off, now do i go get them powder coated or do i go get them chromed out?? what do you guys think??? Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Powdercoat. Chrome never looks right on a steelies of any sort. What color is your 620? Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Do they have Les Schwab's in Sac? $30 a wheel. Quote Link to comment
Newkid Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Powdercoat. Chrome never looks right on a steelies of any sort.

Go with a gunmetal, metallic grey or something. $30 a wheel seems to be the consensus online. You will figure out the color from the options Les Schwab gives, though they are simply taking your wheels to a outside powder coater I do believe. Quote Link to comment
Newkid Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 theres a couple PC shops around my area that i know of that i might be able to get a better deal with.....but i like the gunmetal gray idea but i also like the color of these wheels on this truck, just cant seem to figure out the name of the color..looks like metallic gold or something Quote Link to comment
