i have a chance to buy a set of really nice 17 wheels and tires. my bolt pattern is 5x114.3 and these are the same but they came off a nissan 240sx now i dont know the offset but it is a rear wheel drive car so would they fit? thanks for any help....:salute:
 






You need to find the backspacing of the Nissan wheels.
 






You should check the centerbore as well

I tried a set of 30ZX wheels on my Explorer and the centerbore was definitely too small...And there was not enough material to overbore them safely...

I believe the centerbore is about 66mm and the Explorer is 70.3 or 70.6mm...
 






ok thanks alot i wasnt sure about them ...thanks for the help..
