Rims that fit over the Akebonos
 
Any of you guys have an idea of this yet? I'm looking for the smallest winter rims I can get, need to know what fits..

OEM 18 will fit over them. 17 will not

TunerMax 08-03-2012 02:10 PM

all of the oem 18?

Blue Dream 08-04-2012 05:13 AM

Coupe yes, not sedans.

TunerMax 08-04-2012 08:44 PM

Looks like I need to find some Coupe 18s.......

bluedevils95 08-04-2012 11:23 PM

Should find some on these fourms.

I believe the 370Z rims fit them as well

Canadian, local on rims will be the only potential for discount unfortunately.

I might not even need them now though, as I'm boosting next season and still have my old Maxima for this winter coming up...

BUT if I get into AutoX any more serious I'm goign to want to get some smaller rims.

Bumping this to the top because I'm interested in this as well. My guess is that they won't clear the Akebonos, but it will probably just barely not make it. So, my guess is we would need 5mm or maybe 10mm spacers to make the wheels fit.

That what won't fit? What's "they".

It's pretty much a sure thing that 17's won't fit regardless of offset or design, and 18's will be hit/miss likely. The rear has plenty of room but the front will be a big offset/spoke design game for fitment.

Check the winter rim selection at TireRack. They also have a few selections for everyday and/or track.

Personally, i have Enkei RP03s in 18x9.5 +38, plenty of room over the Akebono's.

I have a 1st gen sedan wheels and they cleared over the akebonos. If you want to be sure, do a test fit over them.
