They are 14 inch but they are VW pattern. The datsun 8 spokes use spacers that are smaller and they touch the center hub 14 inch 8 Spokes only look good on Ghia's thats what Roger Grego had on his Ghia |

I would need 15's to clear my 4 wheel discs and dropped spindles  and I think the offset would be too great in the front, I would foul the fenders if I didnt narrow the beam. My 4.5" Sprints have 4.5" of backspace, so they tuck in nicely with the stock beam and dropped spindles. It would be nice to change the looks of the car whenever I wanted though!  |

No! My friend Christian from DFL has 14" spyder mags in front with stock discs (and narrowed beam) and everything fits without problems. However I guess CB lowered spindles wouldn´t fit. Tobi |

14" lower the car nice.  i had ATS on the square and that was a good stance. but i gladly got rid of them. it had a different look to it but 8 spokes look a lot better. when the fastback was being build it sat on the ATS, but they didn't fit the front because of the large talbot brakes. |
