Wheel sizing

[MM569457]

Greeting!

 

I am looking to put new wheels on my 280z. It is currently at my fathers house on blocks. I need to get it moved ASAP due to foundation issues, but the brakes are 50% complete and the drivetrain is pulled out.

I am looking at getting Enkei92 classics placed on. From what I gather, it is +25mm offset, would it be safe to assume I’d need to get 4x100 spacers? 

I’ve seen conflicting information on these wheels for fitment. I want to make sure they wheels will fit.

 

thanks!

Datsun stud pattern is 4 x 114.3mm. What bolt pattern are the wheels you’re looking at? 

+25mm wheels will require spacers to clear the tire away from the strut, maybe 15mm (5/8) is enough spacer.

4x100 is the stud pattern

I’m trying to figure out if I need to get a 4x114.3mm to 4x100 conversion/spacer. A lot of online stores says it doesn’t fit the 280z

Okay, let's try this again.  The car has a 4x114.3mm STUD pattern.  Are the wheels you found a 4x100mm HOLE pattern?  If so and they are a +25mm offset, then you could try to find a set of bolt-on spacers that convert from 4x100 to 4x114.3.  Most of them are 40mm though which would push the wheels out way too far.  You will spend more for those wheels plus spacers than if you simply find the right wheels.  +25mm offset wheels always look funny on a Z even when spaced out properly.  You need the deep dish look IMHO.
