I have a set of 4 pony wheels (16"x7.5" 94-98 GT wheels 5-lug), in ok condition, will get pics.

2 have 255/50-16 tires with a couple k miles left on em, but not much.

2 have 245/50-16 nitto drag radials...bald in the middle, some tread on the outside, perfect for the track.

Trying to decide if i want to buy those for my 240..It's either those...or a set of Z32 wheels. But i was told the stanger wheels wouldn't fit. let me know.

thanks
-Daniel

5-lug Mustang wheels fit. Offset should be pretty good, too.

The tires are an inch or so too tall for the 240SX, though. Balloony as hell, too, soft sidewalls. Go to 225/50-16.

yeah, see im buying Z32 wheels tomarrow...but these stanger wheels are a steal and Bigger in the rear. 255's instead of....235? so i was thinking about buying those and then buying the stanger wheels and waiting to get different tires and stretching a set on the front.

Thanks for to input,
Daniel

Z32s are 245 in the rear.

The only issue with Mustang wheels is a few styles won't clear Z brakes, the spokes are more curved. The 98-01 GT 17" wheels are a good example, the Mach One wheels won't clear either. I don't know about the 16" wheels or your brake plans, but consider that before buying.
