Need to find 15 inch rims to clear 90-96 300ZX Front Brakes......

Hey guys. I drive a 96 Nissan Maxima and I have currently upgraded my front brakes to your 90-96 300ZX 4-piston caliper setup. As of now, my front brake/rotor brake setup is identical to yours. Well, as many of you know, it is damn hard to find 15 inch rims to fit the fronts. The reason being I need 15 inch rims is because I am going to mount 15 inch slicks on them for my car at the track. Do any of you know what 15 inch rims may fit over the front calipers? Thanks guys......Post here and/or email me, thanks.

I am not sure if ANY 15's will clear those calipers...I know they are a tight fit on the 240SX S14 SE wheels and those are 16's...on my 17's they are tight fit but I think that's a design thing...

Honestly I dont think you will have any luck...just get some 16's that will clear it

Why don't you just get 16 or 17's? And the same size slicks?

The reason I am trying to find some 15 inch wheels to fit is because they do NOT make TRUE/REGULAR 16 inch slicks. they only make Drag radials for the 16+ sizes. I will most likely end up getting some 16 inch wheels and getting drag radials. And probably just lower the crap out of the psi in the DRs......

Anyone else know.....
