Offset On These Old Z Wheels

SCT · **Posted:** Mon Feb 14, 2011 4:42 pm

I saw these wheels at the junkyard and they resemble the wheels that I'm looking for which are rare japanese Tom's. These are off an old Nissan Z from the mid 80's I believe. They're 15x6. As for bolt pattern, I think 4x114.3. I was hoping 4x100.

Do anyone know what offset these are?

IIRC, they are +27?

Bolt pattern is definitely 4x114.3.

They look similar to the Z31 300ZX turbo rims, but those are not like any I've seen. I'd guess they aren't factory Z mags.

As far as I know the Z31 mags looked like this

Do they have Nissan cast into them anywhere?

Take a tape measure next time you are there and you can easily work out the offset.

I figured they were Maximas, not Z's. My friend told me Z and he showed me a picture with it on a Z. The Z version looks alike, I saw both at the junkyard and thought they were just different production year or something.

On the backside, it does say Nissan.

Are there any values in the Z31 wheels? I saw a nice blue Z in the junkyard there with them, all four with center caps. Didn't notice any damage on them. I had no idea why the owner threw it away. Nothing was wrong with it. T Top, too.

I think your friend is RIGHT about them being Maxima rims... I had the EXACT same rims on my 1987 Nissan Maxima SE, now that I remember. Those are U11 87-88 Maxima rims. :wink:
