16" Tyre Option's

Post by SRDATO »

Hey all.

Got a set of 16" 3 piece wheels I want to chuck on the 510. Don't know what size profile and width I should go for though so was hopping you could make some suggestions, photos would also help.
Fronts are 16x7 and rear 16x8,i don't want a too high profile and a bit of stretch would be helpful to prevent guard rub.

Thanks in advance

I think 195 45 16s might be the go, anyone running 16s on their datsun of any model?

HI there, I run 205/40/16's on my 1600, with 7" wide rims.
Fr offset will depend on your struts/hubs , between +15
and +25 would be a rough ballpark guess.
If you run 40 series you will keep close to the orig.
rolling diameter also.
