What hub diameter is needed?

Post by punkzdriver »

Im still looking for a set of 15" wheels that will clear a 300zx brake caliper. The ones I have, I dont think will clear. Im looking for a set of 15" wheels, may go the Rota route, but looking into other options. I dont want to buy a 2nd set of 15" wheels that also do not clear the calipers, and dont fit the hub.

I dont care about a center cap fitting...just want to make sure the wheel fits the hub.
Waiting for the bugs to be worked out...

Is the fitment issue you have with your current wheels one of the back side of the wheel (the spokes) clearing the caliper? I think Spriso's site mentions that a spacer may be needed for some wheeels.

Yes, its the back side of the wheel. I think thats the only part of the wheel that would hit a caliper. I am trying to get away from using spacers.
