New Wheels for R30 Skyline

Hi, I've just bought an R-30 Nissan Skyline and am trying to find a new set of wheels for it, and after being given blank stares by a variety of tyre store attendants I was wondering if anyone could suggest some cheap wheels which will fit ( which I'm told is not many ).

Thanks for your help lads.

What is the lug pattern? The R32,R33, and R34 are 5 lug 5 1/2, so you can put Mustang rims on them, with the right back spacing. In fact right now I have a set of Cobra R on one of my GTR right now.

Its a four stud and from what I've been told its similar to a Silvia's, the only problem being that I've been told it has an unusual offset so pretty much whatever wheels I choose it'll need spacer plates.

You can get 1/2 to 1 1/2" spacers pretty cheap. Just take some measurements, and buy a set of rims.
