I'm throwing on a set of 18" on my 95 240SX/LE..
18x7.5(size) 5x100/114.3(PCD) 42(offset)

ADR model flight 5...$2000(cdn)
wheels and tires
painted calipers
allignment

I like the design.. but is this gonna fit nicely? I want them to be as flush as posible.. any comments?

-HyJynX-

nope, its not ganna fit right at all. About 35+ to 30+ will be a nice flush fit.

So the wheels aren't wide enough? what if I put on spacers?

off by 10+?

-HyJynX-

The offset isnt right for the width of the wheel. If you get a 10mm spacer everything should look right

Ronin|One

10mm... thats not much, I know the rear wheel wells are quite large.. you think it'll look ok?? and what do you think about calipers? red/black/silver.. my 240's dark purpleish.

-HyJynX-

Black for the calipers

Just a thought, 10mm spacers all around should do the trick

cool.. thanks for the input.. i bought my car and i didn't get any remote for it.. and i read that the 240sx/le comes with stock alarm and keyless entry. so, i just have to get a remote?

42 offset is more for FWDs; 7.5 is wide enough (sorta) but again it's the offset that makes the wheel look right on a car. If you're undecided about getting spacers, put the wheels on and measure the distance from the top of the fender to the widest part of the wheel then get spacers accordingly.

As for calipers, black or silver might be ok.

Factory remote? Out here it's like $80 to program it, not including buying it. How about getting an aftermarket alarm instead?

someone on this site has got to know how to program the remote.. right? that would be cooooooooool.

l2aine

noooooooooooooooooooooot. This question has been asked a lot around here, but everyone ends up going to the dealer. I don't even think it's possible to code it yourself because of security issues.

If someone knew how to program it from home, then it would be easy to steal any 240SX with keyless entry.

Think about it.

not true.. because to program it you need to have the ignition key, turn it a few times back and forth..... and ****.

you should just not get ****ty offset wheels made for a 240sx i think, spend you money on some 17x8 for the front and 17X9 on the back with the right offset

17" are so gay tho.. 18" are the shiot.. and they look awesome, ADR have dope looking rims

l2aine

17" are gay.

wow. I won't even bother commenting with that anymore.

Well... BTW ADR are mainly a FWD wheel maker, with the exception of the Sterling and a couple other wheels they make.

"shiot" or not.

Catharsis
