Title: Nissan 200sx s14 alloys fitted to RX7?
Post by: Mazzyrx7 on March 30, 2006, 12:01:25 PM
Does anyone know if a set of Nissan 200sx wheels will go on a RX7.

The spec as follows:

Front:
114.3
18-8.0J
Offset +37

Rear
114.3
18-9.0J
Offset +38

I think the fronts should be fine. But I\'m a little concerned about the rears. From what I can work out they should just fit. I may need to roll the rear arches but that\'s no real problem. If anyone could say if I\'m wrong or right that would be great.

Thanks in advance

Tom

They should fit, but when I tried to put my Nissan wheels on the FD the problem was the centre bore which was smaller on the Nissan.  Thus the wheels wouldnt fit on.

It will depend on what bore they have, if they are too big and using a spigot ring that can be removed youll be ok.

Thanks for that J4P RX. But looks like they won\'t fit, as I think they have a offset on the fronts of +27 now (just waiting for a email to confirm). Which means they will stick out by 0.19".

The search for some new wheels goes on.
