nvestor88 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 What size tires are members running on their 510? This is the 6 star factory wheel. I'd like a lower stance look.... Quote Link to comment
510T Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 185/55R14 for the lows, 22" diameter. Quote Link to comment
Dolomite Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 I'd run 195 or 205, I'm not a fan of any noticeable stretch. Quote Link to comment
qwik510 Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 I'm running 195-60-14 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Both my 710s have 5.5JJ X 14 factory mags. One has 215/60R14s on the back. That's about 8.5" wide and they look fine. My goon has 195/60R14 that are over 7.5" wide. Generally wide is better, and better looking that too narrower. I wouldn't go less that the rim width or they look like rubber bands. I know it's a 'look' thing but wider grips better also. Over 7" starts to look a little pretentious and driving in bad weather takes more attention. Might even be worse on a lighter car. Slots were out of style by the time the zx came out. I don't think those are zx or any other Z car factory rims, just after market. Somewhat period correct and look great on a 510..

Lockleaf Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 I think I'm running 205/60r14 on those rims. Here's how it sits at the fender. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Those are factory mags. The 720 ST has a 6 bolt one identical to it. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 What size tires are members running on their 510? This is the 6 star factory wheel. I'd like a lower stance look.... I always ran a 185/60-14. A little shorter in height than a 195, but not as short as the 185/55. Good for moderate lows, less rubbing. But also good for the "too lows"... :rofl: Quote Link to comment
nvestor88 Posted November 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Is 205/50/14 too wide? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 8" wide and 22" tall. The 510 came with 5:60 13s which would be close to 23.2" diameter so a little short which will throw the speedo out and lower the car very slightly. These are closer to stock in 14" rim 205/55R14 is 8" and 22.88" tall. 205/60R14 is 8" wide and 23.7" tall Quote Link to comment
510freak Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 185/60/14 like datsunfreak said. If you want off road tall tires,the others work 1 Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Is 205/50/14 too wide? What is "too wide"? It won't rub if that's what you mean. But, they will stick out in front if you don't have 280ZX struts. Heck, even a 185/60-14 will stick out a tiny bit without 280ZX struts... ^_^ Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Is 205/50/14 too wide? Other than Mickey Thompson Drag Radials, I'd love to know where you're going to buy that size, though... ^_^ 1 Quote Link to comment
