Datsun Roadster Forum-311s.org

Shant was nice enough to let me drive his car since I've been on the fence about a SR20 swap on SCSunday. Got to say, it was nice! What's really a bonus is that it has enough power with 2 guys in it. Car has a bad ass stance and I'm completely sold now. This is the way it was meant to be. ROTA really finishes it well. Thanks Shan't,

Anything in the front? or is it all stock except for your Datsunparts.com lowing springs?

i used the hub adapter/spacer 4x114.3 to4x114.3 about $60 for the pair

Im glad you enjoyed the ride... maybe next time we will take it for a longer drive

Wheels look fantastic! Would love to see a write up on the flare install if you ever get a chance

But Tom you've got killer quad-throttle U20, it must feel the same.

I want to drive the quad throttle car.. It sounds sexy!

I how you are going to Solvang this year Shant! Will see you then. Can't wait to see it u close! It really looks nice.

Quad throttle is still nice in its own way, I just want one of each!

me too!

I want to run these wheels in a 15x7 +0 195/50/15. but im unsure if they will clear the 300zx BBK and if the tire will clear.

Is anyone else running these wheels without flares?

Not these wheels, but here is a 15x7 +0 on 195/50/15
Front

Rear fenders rolled and 205s


15x7 +0 on my own roadster:



Every wheel is different with respect to spoke/caliper clearance, as is every roadster's fender clearance.

Thanks Alvin, I like the reflection of the other wheel in the last pic ... a little surprised the stats on it are absent

Happy Holidays to you Alvin

Flares installed I tried to use 15x7 0 offset enkie wheels with the 300zx brakes and it didn't work. Then I tried the 15x8 +10 offset and they fit perfect. Apparently sometimes you just need to test fit the wheels on the car. I can possibly test fit my wheels on a roadster without flares and share the results !!!

Here is another pic with the new wheels

Very sharp!!!
