+1 I do like them though.

Slidin240Wayz · 06-06-2007, 10:35 AM

Sell them to a corolla or something. S14s need at least 17 in the front and 18 in the rear.

aznpoopy · 06-06-2007, 10:37 AM

15s on a s14 is going to look weird.

drift freaq · 06-06-2007, 10:40 AM

To small for a S14. While not a bad looking wheel definitely would be better on a older car. Though being 5 lug its a no go for Corolla's. Good for a MR2 though.

He's right, you should just give me the rims.. hehe. I like em just the way they are.

WilloW · 06-06-2007, 10:42 AM

Nice but too small just like they said. I thought 16s are small on S14.

axiomatik · 06-06-2007, 11:39 AM

15s don't look right on S14s. plus S14s don't look good with old school style wheels. I'd sell them and get something else (17's or 17/18 stagger)

LB.Motoring · 06-06-2007, 11:47 AM

lol,

It would look good.

Get some Hydros.

so you bought them, and you dont know what they would look like on your s14? you could allways put them on.

sleepy_s13 · 06-06-2007, 12:04 PM

on the plus side they will look better than stock.

false

at least stock will look like you aren't dumb enough to spend a dime to downgrade from 16's to 15's on an s14

pbcstylez · 06-06-2007, 12:26 PM

I beg to differ, its going to depend on what stock tires he originally had, seeing he had bought 5 lug rims, im assuming he had SE wheels, id rock those 16s over these 15s anyday (mainly for the reason that i wouldnt have spent money on 15s period.

xblack240x · 06-06-2007, 12:40 PM

They'd probably look better on a slammed s13... Dunno about a s14, 17's or bigger is all I would rock other than the stockies...

Chitown_B14 · 06-06-2007, 01:13 PM

Thanks guys, so anyone with an s13 in the market for a set of rims? I'm going to see how they look on and then decide if i'm going to keep them or not.

azndoc · 06-06-2007, 02:44 PM

Don't keep them. Don't even waste your money on tires and mounting.

Just sell them for something bigger. Way bigger. You drive a S14 so you respectfully have to get bigger wheels at least 17's if not then 18's for more cool points.

eastcoastS14 · 06-06-2007, 02:53 PM

17x9's in the front 17x10's in the back

vanish1 · 06-06-2007, 03:30 PM

is this serious?

and then you'll know EXACTLY what to get

UfoZ8myCow · 06-06-2007, 05:56 PM

Sell those to an old skool Toyota guy... Like everyone said, they will look whack on your S14.

IIIXziuR · 06-06-2007, 05:58 PM

Maybe if they were larger sizing.
But still the Mesh Style face dosen't suit a 14 too well.

jspaeth · 06-06-2007, 09:21 PM

^ hahaha brutal, but so true

floodo1 · 06-06-2007, 10:35 PM

Is this thread for real? 15's on a 240???????

JJisGUILTY · 06-07-2007, 12:58 AM

Nice wheels, but a bit small to go on the 240. I ran 15's from the factory (i had base model), but defanitely pass on those. Sell them to a Corolla or something. I have no idea what their PCD is though.

SNC240SX · 06-07-2007, 09:28 AM

I have these rims on my S13 put theres 16s not 15s. I dont think these will look good on an S14.

Chitown_B14 · 07-09-2007, 06:27 PM

Ok guys, I just got the rims put on. I like the way they look on the car. I'm happy so that's all that matters. Here are a few pic's of them on the car.

Landers · 07-09-2007, 06:35 PM

ehhh...idk im on the fence

eastcoastS14 · 07-09-2007, 06:38 PM

haha those actually dont look half bad...would be better if they werent sunken in but they look better than i thought they would

**ThatGuy** · 07-09-2007, 06:40 PM

Too small, too narrow, need spacers.

**Phlip** · 07-09-2007, 06:42 PM

Sweet holy mother of God, are your headlights that yellow on purpose or was there some level of neglect to allow them to fall to that?
