Re: Datsun Forged wheels?
I've seen a few sets of those for sale here and there and, from my understanding, are a bit rare in the fact that they were only an option on the '78 280Z Black Pearl Edition. I saw one set pretty cheap ($100 I think - probably should have picked them up) and other sets in the $250-$350 range. I like them.

Re: Datsun Forged wheels?
67-1600 is right, they were used on the black pearl Z's, but were also available as an accessory wheel from the dealer. They are not a forged wheel though, just cast. If those rims have all the centers, that is a great deal as while the rims are kinda hard to find, the correct centers in good shape can sometimes fetch the asking price themselves!

Re: Datsun Forged wheels?
Does anyone know whether the black pearl wheels would fit on our cars?
The seller of the set I found thinks they are 14x7. That seems kinda big, but the wheel tech section says that Z wheels are close to 100% fitment on the Roadsters.
Help?!
