Ratwagon1600 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 OK, I thought these were off what we call the Nissan R31 Skyline silhouette. Bit of research from Professor Google, and im not 100% sure now. 4 * 114.3 pcd and definitely fit Nissan/Datsun. Nissan is embossed in the wheel face adjacent to the wheel nut holes. Other markings show 68JJ*15 30P and 40300-J7111 There is also an arrow embossed on the face with text stating FWD ROT (forward rotation obviously). Anyone want to have an educated guess at this one? Thanks Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Not R31 Silhouette. Silhouette wheels are actually spoked rims with a cover over them. And they are at angles like that one. 40300 is the nissan part number for wheels, and j7111 is the specific model. Silhouette wheel: Quote Link to comment
Ratwagon1600 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Thanks mate, the wheel you show definitely looks to me like the Silhouette wheel we got in upside down land. Quote Link to comment
Swedishcadillac Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Anth from BuildThreads has some R31 Skylines with and without center caps here? http://forum.wheel-whores.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=8730. Definitely different but similar-ish. Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 They are R31 wheels. J7111 does pull up R31 tail lights on google... Quote Link to comment

Ratwagon1600 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 They are R31 wheels. J7111 does pull up R31 tail lights on google... Awesome! Clearly your Google skills are better than mine :) Thanks for this, based on the pic (and considering its an Aussie car) ill take it they are dfintely R31 Aussie spec wheels. Cheers mate!

datsunaholic Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 My sisters 1988 Skyline had those same wheels (she was stationed on Okinawa, which was why she had one). Quote Link to comment

CorAce Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 My knee jerk was that they came on the early 300z's or NX in the 80's... something with a pointy nose but that could just be my well abused memory showing its ass again. Edit... Oh yeah, an R31 might do it. Quote Link to comment
