Standard 350Z wheels

Can anybody tell me why the standard 350Z wheels are marked Front or Rear on the back of one of the spokes?

They are the same size (8") and offset (30).

The reason is that the Rays alloys are different sizes and Nissan put a peg on the rear hubs to prevent people installing them the wrong way round. Therefore, the standard alloys come in 'fronts' and 'rears' with and without the hole for the peg. Also, the wheels might be the same size but the tyres aren't.

BTW, the peg can easily be removed from the hubs if required.

P.S. Want to buy a set of standard alloys? I've a set for sale here ;-)

Thanks Pauls that makes sense.

By the way, I have too many 240, 350 and Pug 106 wheels around already!
