I've got a set of 280zx mags in my shed. The problem is that the offset is in the wrong direction. As of yet, there are not spacers of negative thickness. The tires are too far out. I think you can g

I have used the "basket weave" 14" wheels from a 240/260/280 Z for many years wearing 185/60 tires. They fit well and have a "period" look to them. Offsets were perfect and they fitted perfectly. Ger

First, beware the alloy wheels with knock-off adaptors. Several have failed in use. This does not seem to be a problem with the bolt on wheels. Second, Kelvin, how did you get the alloys on the Maggo
