SO I bought this 1997 240sx… Then I bought these 18x9 +40 and 18x10 +38 Gram light 57pros… A friend of mine had them on his Z once upon a time… Whats it gonna take to make these fit my S14? Such a good deal I had to buy them 😃 Everyone else seems to be running a much lower offset… is the offset on these bad enough that no amount of spacers/pulling/rolling is going to help? I have never ben as good with offsets as I should have been… really lost here and need help ☹ Thanks Jason ---

You will definently not be needing to pull or roll anything with those sunken wheels. Get some 30mm spacers all around, that should help in the looks dept. ---

yeah if they were on a Z then you’ll need spacers for sure. . .z’s and g’s have huge wheel wells compared to the s-chassis. . . i’ve got a nice set of wheels that’ll fit ;D Kitten not included. . . ![http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m292/nismo240r/IMG_0747.jpg](http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m292/nismo240r/IMG_0747.jpg) ![http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m292/nismo240r/IMG_0746.jpg](http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m292/nismo240r/IMG_0746.jpg) ---
