When I finally find an S14 I'm hopefully going to put the alloy wheels that were on my Golf Mk4 on to it, will these fit straight on?

On the subject, will 17 inch wheels with 215/45's work out with regards to the speedo etc.

S14 wheels are 5 stud. As far as the speedo calibration is concerned, standard is 205/55/16, which works out as a rolling diameter of around 625mm. 225/45/17 have an approx diameter of 627.5mm, so the consequential difference in speedo reading (0.4% over) is negligable. The big problem with after market fitments to the S14 is the huge size of the calipers (see related posts on this subject dotted around the board), which limits choice somewhat. http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/frown.gif

Does any one have dimensions that will allow me and anyone else to work out if their alloys would fit?? In what way are the calipers huge, diameter from centre or distance out from face???

It won't work.

Sell them and buy a new set of alloys.

VW/Audi stud patterns for the Golf/Audi 1.8T are 5x100 PCD. For the S14 it's 5x114.3, so the rims won't fit...
