Datzun510 Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 I want to buy some rims for my 69 Datsun 510. Here are the specs would like to know these will fit my car. Size: All 4 Rims Are 15X8 with 3" lip Bolt Pattern: 4X114.3 (4.5") Offset: +0 mm If these rims do fit, does anyone also know what would be the best tire size? The wider the better :o) Thank you advance for your comments... Quote Link to comment

sssr20det510 Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Will need 280zx struts in front and will have to roll the fenders Quote Link to comment
lunatiks96 Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 As of right now im on stock stuts/cut springs but its basically bottomed out. But i dont have issues with my wheels hitting the struton mine Quote Link to comment
Datzun510 Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 So im guessing the should fit... Thanks for the info!! :D Quote Link to comment
yellowdatsun Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Can you make them fit, sure. Is it a good fit, no. Realistically it's way too wide for a regular 510. You run into all kinds of problems. Get a 7 inch wheel, you'll be happy you did. I ran 8's on my box flared car, because I had a crap ton of room. But we run 6-7's on our regular 510's.

JakeWard Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Not my car, and its cambered out the ying-yang in back. You should have no problems fitting those wheels. Is that really a roof scoop? Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 I have 8s in the rear with only a little neg. camber. I'm also +12 not +0 though. Quote Link to comment
Datzun510 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 @Jake: yea, its a roof scoop... what do you think? Quote Link to comment
lunatiks96 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 nice choice on rims, you should go 16s because wheel wells are big so they actually lice, tucked, and not big Quote Link to comment
Datzun510 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Thanks for the info, Lunatiks96 Quote Link to comment
lunatiks96 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 No prob and oops meant to say 510 wheel wells are big and the 16s look like 15's would on a civic Quote Link to comment
