I pretty sure the fit.
I used Skyline R33 GTS wheels on my car for Swedish MOT.
They look the same as the S14 ones.
They fit but looks :hurl:
I have a set of BBS wheels which was stock on the "racing edition" S14a in germany.
Havn't tried them yet but they should fit.

Neither, they are just borrowed for today, follow?? :D

I got pulled by the Police when on my way down to Jono's on Saturday, they followed me for about 2 miles, then pulled me for my wheels sticking out past my arches, so i need to get the slip they gave me stamped and signed withing 7days to say i have sorted the problem :rolleyes:

So i'm in the market for new wheels too :nod: Want to get the same but with better offset, but cant find anyone that sells them :rolleyes:

why don't you take it to wheel specialist and grind it? since yours have less offset you can make it higher. Or just try using smaller tyres?

I dont know of any wheel specialists :no: I'm using small tyres as it is, even now the wheels arent potected by the tyres :no:

Can that even be done?

Ahh. Now I understand. Well the S14 wheels should do the job then.

You don't have to buy new wheels. Buy these instead :)

Thought about that and even priced up parts and paint etc, but i'm not a fan of the Fibreglass i do have (stone chips really easily) so i dont want more on the car :no:

Would look cool though :nod:

You wont get many stone chips on the side of the car you know :rolleyes:

Doesn't seem to be too badly priced. 550AUD for the fronts and 500 AUD for the rears from Topstage.
They can probobly make them in carbon for you if you pay the dough :D

If they could be blended as well as they were on the D1 S15s we saw at the weekend, I'd consider it. If it was a reasonable cost, of course...

They can be blended :nod: I spoke to a guy about fitting them as that was my plan to get the wheels to fit, but i have changed my mind, for now :D, he roughly quoted me ?1k to fit, blend and paint.

Got the S14 wheels on last night, looked funny, took some pictures but forgot to take the camera :rolleyes:

Meddy, yeh i checked that out 1st, Brens kit was designed to use with the standard wheels, its very close mind :nod: The only problem i had was the weight on the inside of one of the wheels just touched my caliper, so one weight has now got a little bit missing :)

Nicely, the S14 wheels are +45 offset :nod:

:cool: I was quoting info from elsewhere on that offset.

Wish you'd wanted to do this a couple of months back when my track Z32 rims were for sale... :rolleyes:

The Z32 wheels are ok, would be good as track wheels but not as replacments :no:

I'm in the market for new wheels, think i'm going to go for 17's again, mainly because i'm happy with the size of my current wheels, tyres are cheaper and i feel enough bumps/noises etc now, dont want to feel anymore :no:
