Title: looking for some old 4x4.5 bolt pattern RWD offset wheels..
Post by: R.O.R-2.0 on August 04, 2011, 08:55:21 am

ok, so i came across a 63 olds F-85 a while back, and now that its driveable, i need wheels for it. the stock steelies look horrible..

would anyone happen to have a set of old datsun Z wheels, or any wheels in 4x4.5 rwd?

corvair, old mustang, 240-280z, anything like those will work. looking for a 0 offset if possible..

again, looking for something retro preferably.. i want it to match my car. some slotted mags or just anything rather than what its got basically..

lemme know what you have, and how much you want?

(i figured maybe one of you guys might have a set tucked away somewhere that you never used)

How about some "Chrome Nuggets" ??  I think the early RX-7 had the same bolt circle..

chrome nuggets meaning the modular style steel wheels? yes, the RX's had the same..

kinda looking for aluminum wheels, but beggars cant be choosers..

  Took a look at them today..  They're 13's and the lug nuts look funny..  Almost Uni-lugish..    :(

forgot to mention that i would like to find 14s or 15s..

13's would look goofy on a car the size of a nova..

What's wrong with 13's on a big car..  It'll look like a sweet hoopty from da hood!..  I thought they would have been 14's on an RX7.. These are indeed unilugs too..   To the scrapper with these....

were going to do a disk brake conversion eventually tho.

and apparently, i need a 0 offset on the front, and a et25 offset for the rears..
