Are there any 14" wheels that would fit the 240? ---

Why would you want to go smaller than the stock size? rotor clearance might become an issue. ---

try looking for geo metro or suzuki swift… they are 4x114.3 bolt pattern but might be too narrow… good thing 240sx’s accepts front wheel drive offsets ---

Easier to get wheelspin with smaller wheels 😉 But then you have to worry about recalibrating the speedo (if you care at all) as well as paying for wheels and mounting, etc. IMHO I would just try to sell them. ---

I’ve been driving 240SX’s since they first came out in '89 under all sorts of winter conditions. Long ago I settled on using 14" steelies from the '75-'78 280Z with winter tires to get close to the same tire circumference as the OEM 15" setup on the S13. This way it does not throw your speedo out when using a narrower 70 series snow/ice tire (which you should on the 240SX). They clear the stock non ABS front calipers fine but they do NOT clear the larger 240SX ABS or Sylvia/180SX S13 calipers.
