I have an 82 KE70 and was wondering if there are any 114.3 x 4, 17 inch wheels that fit with out having to go buy new alloys? I know most of the newer 4 stud wheels are for front wheel drive,

 

I have some decent 17 inch tyres from another car and thought that it could be an interesting thing to try.

 

cheers

probably be best off trying to find some 17" aftermarket S13 Silvia wheels or something like that

if u go silvia wheels u have to remember they are fairly positive offset. if u try them u might need spacers as they tend to hit the strut (in the front)

i tried standard silvia meshies on my sev and yeh it needed 25mm spacers to clear the strut

 

but i reckon there would quite a fewlow offset 17 around :)

Spacers are illegal. :D

 

17" rims would look ridiculous on a KE70 anyway! 15 is the biggest I would go. 16 would be pushing it and like I said, 17's would look wacky.

17+ rims are for BMW's and fulleh sik VL's

 

But to answer your question, I'm not sure of any 17" rims that are suitable for a KE70.

17's can be done... but looks like a rollaskate

8" front and 9" rear 16's *can* look good... but you gotta be running stretched tyres.

i've done 16 x8's with a 205/50/16 looked ok..

If you find mags of a MX73 Cressida. They should be around +20 offset and they are 4x114.3 pcd.Should fit nicely.

But IMO 17's are to big.

in nz theres a few you 17s you can get that bolt on sweet, performance wheels make a "lotus" or ROH adrenaline, advanti flash are a few off the top of my head that are 17x7, they go on quite nice, heres a link to a ke70 with 18s,

looks the part if you ask me, depends what style your aiming for

i know you all hate my car. and the rims i have one it .. but they fitted very nice and honestly did NOT scrub at all

 

although i am also interested and would like to know of any 17s that will fit nice on an ae / ke .. something similar to those white ones on the ke70

 

i don't hate your car.

i quite like the colour.

they are all just jealous coz they have faded factory paint :P

and hell, ill say it, and I'm an oldschool fan, the wheels look decent, and suit the look of the car, ie blingin

what chrome did you use over the gaurds? just stick on?

 

cheers, andy

yeah its just a stick on dressing you can get it from most panel shops

 

and thanks for the kind words

 

.. i hunted down a set of 17s for my car.. just a quick question, what offset should i get for front and back at 17x 7.5
