HAM8URGER Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Im looking at getting these wheels for my 2 door dime. I have 280zx struts up front and stock fenders (willing to roll) Will these 15x8 +25 fit without having to strech the hail out of the tires??? http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=400463065113&globalID=EBAY-US Quote Link to comment

HAM8URGER Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 So 15x8 0 offset will fit stock fenders front and rear with 280zx struts??? What size tires? Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Buy 7in rims. Your cutting it too close unless the shop takes the rims back. also depends if you have coil overs and where they welded the perch(above of below the tire line. key is knowing the diff between a 7 in and the 8 inch where they put that extra inch at. Inside or out side of rim or split the differece and the offset. Quote Link to comment
Rollover_Red Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 So 15x8 0 offset will fit stock fenders front and rear with 280zx struts??? What size tires? you can run 15x8 ET 0 and still be fine, maybe run a little 5mm spacer just to be sure. and if you dont mind a little stretch, get some 205/50/15's all the way around.

hosestop@msn.com Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 What car are you working on ? ON REAR - 15x7 o offset wheels on White 4dr 510, I can't fit a 195x50 had to go and stretch 185x55 and still scrape,junk, but looks great ! but some of us like to go fast ,so forget stretched tires . Just my input before you go and purchase tires, mount a used one !and good luck . Quote Link to comment
HAM8URGER Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 I don't mind a little stretch, I really want 8" wide all the way around but I also want her flush and low. Any suggestions on wheel/tire specs? Quote Link to comment
HAM8URGER Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Rolled stock fenders, no more... Quote Link to comment
hosestop@msn.com Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 280zx turbo stock wheels were +10 6 wide stock so 15x7 205 50 45 0r 16x7 with + 10 for zx struts with minor scrape sounds when corner hard in a 4dr,run 8s better go +20 and run spacers or 300zx struts in front.Again this is for function ,maybe .Check out my 16x7 post ,I can't fit a 215x40x16 or 225x45 test tires on rear hit fender bad ,but fit on front with zx struts +10.Needed + 20mm wheel in rear and maybe. Use test tire ,best advice ! Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 the ebay link Those look cool. Im sure they Chinese but hey they are cool. if stock front struts and stretched tires and maybe some fender roll it might be possible with zx struts and a 10mm spacer. but be carefull of threads. I would like half of the threads holding the front wheel. Quote Link to comment
