If you have ZG flares and 15" RS watanabes...

If you have a 71-73 240z with ZG (japanese) fender flares and running 15" RS Watanabe wheels, what is the widest (in inches) you can run in the front and the rear? And what offset? Please give me your suggestions, and if you have any pictures, please link it...thanks!

Just browse around on the Watanabe site. The sizes and offsets that I posted are the recommended sizes for a 240ZG according to RS-Watanabe.

p.s. There are great photos on that site as well.

Thx! I tried looking for pix among the albums and members here, but too much to browse through. Do you happen to know of a direct link? Thx again.

Hi VQ,

I don't know why I can't give you a direct link to the gallery of the RS-Watanabe site, but go to the top second silver button from the right and you will see a Nissan button. Click that and scroll down to the S30's. It is all in Japanese, but you can read the size and offset of the wheels and the size tires as well. I hope this helps.

There are quite a few members with the Z432R/ZG fender flares that could help you on this. I am just reading what is on the RS-Watanabe site. Good luck with it and post some pictures.

p.s. IMO the 14" Watanabe's look the best, but EricB has 15" wats and it looks great.

p.p.s. Here is a pic of a friend's car.

Ben, on most web pages, don't try to copy the URL from the adress bar, instead, right-click in the middle of the page and copy the page URL instead.

The only time this method gets compicated is when the site uses frames.

Watanabe is sure proud of their Fairlady Fitments!
