280ZX wheels/hubs

[wannitall]

Hi all
I'm new here and don't quite know how to work this forum lark
I know that most members know what's what with the z cars so I'm after some advise. I have a 1979 280zx coupe and would like to know if any one knows what other hubs will fit 5x114 would be nice.

Cheers all
Sean

Hi Sean, I've moved your 'Thread' to the 280ZX section. I don't understand what you are asking so perhaps you need to explain more.

Are you wanting to know what wheels will fit your car?

Hi rob
I know what size wheels fit 4x114.3 but my shocks are shot and the hubs have a really big bearing housing on them so do you know of any other legs and hubs the would fit.
Cheers

I was looking at using Nissan S14/S13 struts and adjustable length lower control arms and tension rods (expensive). Alternatively try retaining the 280zx struts and swap in 5 stud hubs from a 300zx Z31.

You don't need to replace the front legs. Repairs are effected using cartridge inserts. The hub is separate to the strut anyway...
