As said I have Dbo's and I'm running on a 215 45 17 with a 30mm drop all round I've had no issues with rubbing or steering being heavy tho

they look like they have multi fit 8 holes but they dont ;) 4 are the nut holes and 4 are cut weight saver holes :P
so just check they are 114.3!!! as you cant use the weight saver holes :lol:

and as above you have to run 64.1 spigot rings!!!! they do not self centre and run offcentre if no spigots fitted :shock:

Ok thanks chaps! So to confirm, if I buy these wheels I will need a set of 64.1 spigot rings and some spacers because the wheels will sit in to far, right?

Yeah but from what I gather, yours are proper Prelude fitment whereas these are from a 200sx.. that said, I suppose the Nissan could have been running Prelude wheels all along. Will have to wait til I see them for real.

If yours are et45 and W1ggz are et40 then yours will obviously sit in the arches 5mm further. use a 5mm spacer and yours will sit exactly as w1ggz's do.

You sure they're 66.1 bore though?

no sparcers m8 :D the way they sat on mine fronts were out flush on arches and rears maybe could have done with 5mm spacers :oops:

the 67.1 to 64.1 spigot rings i had were real cheap m8 about £2.00 each i think ;) but i would never run universal spacers as they are crap and real hubcentric (the only ones to go for ) are about £120 a pair and for 5mm difference :?: :?:

An S13 is 66.1 bore, but there's a chance the Konigs ran spigot rings to fit the S13 as well, meaning the actual bore of the Konigs are larger. Not many if any options on 66.1-64.1 spigot rings otherwise.

And you don't need to run hubcentric spacers if the spacer you use are shallow enough so that the wheel/spigot ring still locates on the hub.

bore size is take a ruler with you m8 ;) mine were 67.1 rim bore and 64.1 hub :D
but the Ats i had were 64.1 rim and the Boss redlines i have now are 73.1 rim ;)

aftermarket alloys love messing around with hub bore so measure that they are bigger than 64.1 and do as i did and took one rim in carparts centre and tried all spigots till i got the right ones :lol:

2 sets of spigots i tried were right size whole but the rim bore was camfered angle on whole so had to match the 15% degree on spigots :D

have never measured how much hub ring sticks out but only about 3mm that can see :( did try my kids spare 5mm halfrauds spacers on mine but where they were for 4 or 5 stud fitment the spigot rings didnt make contact with the hub and the ride felt like the rims were not running true :(
