Title: 15 X 7 set of 4 modern spoke wheels from 300Z
Post by: DonB on September 09, 2011, 03:30:22 PM
I have set of 4, 15" wheels with 4 bolt MG pattern which look great. I bought them when the very first 300Zs were introduced (had to have one) as I didn't care for the factory wheels. Purchased from Weld Wheels here in KC.

Loved the 300Z but not enough "go" so traded for the second year's turbo... kept the wheels and... they went to 5 bolt pattern!

They have been boxed, in my garage since then, and I need to move them... current MG-B V-6 project is draining my pockets. For that car, I'm going for serious retro look with 72 spoke wires.

I'm selling them as a set only.. at $125 each for $500 plus transport to you.  

I'm not a tire/wheel guy but I'll try to answer any questions.

Okay, what does one of them weigh?

Hi Carl,

By my carefully calibrated bathroom scales...15 lbs. I'd add a pound as I'll pack the heck out of them with reinforcing and bubble wrap.

Don, nice looking wheels, what is the width and offset?

Mike,
As stated before, I'm not a wheel guy but did go to the web to double check. If I understood correctly...

The overall width of the wheel  (outside edge of rim to rim) 8-1/8"

Inside the flange it measures 7" wide

From a flat plane across the inside (street side down) edge to edge, it measures 5" to the face of the mounting flange.

If I got it right, you then divide the overall dia. (8-1/8") by two, to find a true midpoint (4-1/16) subtract the actual measurement (5") for an offset of 15/16".

If I got the formula wrong, at least the measurements are correct.

If this isn't what you need, send me a PM and I'll try again.
Don

So, we have a set of 15x7 aluminum wheels w/24mm (+) offset w/4x114.5mm bolt pattern and weighing 15lbs - perfect, I'd say, for someone like Carl to get extra rubber under his car.....sorry Mike, not so sure they would fit an Arkley!
