Take a look at the exchange below. Does this seem right that an early 240Z
had a 100MM bolt pattern rather than 114.3/4.5"? I just slapped the Z
turbine wheels I bought a while ago on my 69 2000. They look awesome, but
the crummy 185/70 x14 tires that came with them (Federal's), rub just a tad
on the front fender at full turn. I was hoping to slap some 195/60 or maybe
even 205/60's on there. I sure as heck hope they fit. After about 20 hours
of wheel restoration effort (thanks to everybody's advice if I missed you),
these better work. I do need center caps however. These wheels have about a
1/4" think mounting flange that has a slim lip that the caps would clip into.
Anybody have any they want to part with or know where I could get them. The
guy at Les Scwab told me fat chance, but I gotta believe they are out there
somewhere. The lugs by the way slip inside the wheel and grab onto the
studs, which just barely protrude from the wheel face.

> If these are really off of an early Z, which they certainly appear to be,
the bolt patter should be 4x4.5" or 4x114.3mm. Is there any way you can
check to see if this is true on these wheels. If they are the 4 x 4.5" I
may be interested. Thanks.
