Every fall, at the beginning of November,  I change out my high performance, super sticky Dunlop Star Specs & 16" wheels to the stock wheels and tires.   This time, I could not do this due to the Wilwood brake upgrade I did in the spring.  Was searching for some 15" replacement wheels, when Zup mentioned he might have some on one of his 240z parts cars.  A few weeks ago, we made a trip out to where the cars are stored, and yes, the white 73 had a set of what looked like vintage Enkei 15's.   Pulled the wheels, cleaned them up a little, tested the fit and clearance, then ordered a set of new all season tires.

Ended up ordering the 4 tires from Tires-Easy.com, turned out to be a great experience.  Ordered on a Friday - delivered the NEXT day on Saturday.  Very nice (and about $30 less than TireRack.  (4 Sumitomo HTR AS P02  215 60 15)   Total $276 shipped.   Dropped them off with the wheels and had them Road Force balanced, then mounted the set myself with new lug nuts.   They take standard conical seat lugs (thank god I didn't need to bug  Captain O to modify them) Anyway, I am set until next April - the Dunlops don't like temps below 50 degrees.  The tires work great, and are a good choice for an inexpensive all season tire.   Recommended          Big, very big thanks to my friend Zup for those great wheels!   I think they like being back on the road...

Those look nice!  Are the wheels 15x7?

You are correct, 15x7.   The center caps are from ZX 6 spoke wheels which fit perfectly.

Thanks, I really like the way that combo looks on your car, I would like to find something similar.
