New rims....Can't put them on

permalink · Jun 27th, 2003, 07:23 PM

I am so p/o..

I recently bought 17 for my B13 and the back ones are too big.

What I mean is that the back ones are getting stuck because they are touching the struts.

What can I do??? I thought of getting longer lugz and nutz and get some spacers but the lugz are difficult to find....

HELP!!!!!

well my advice would be to tri gorilla lugs?? and call a nissan dealership, and find out if(or online) the nx's or even the newer sentras have londer studs that maybe you could do a weekend swap?! or sell them(the rims) and get slender ones!!

thats the best I can do!!! hope it helps!

what kind of wheels are they? do you know the width of the wheel?

depending on what the wheel is actually rubbing, the grinder might be your friend. we ground off some of my friend's coilovers when we ddi a 5 lug conversion on his stang. if it is the actual shock body or something like that i dont know. what width did you get??

why don't you jus' get spacers Hec. How much is it rubbin?? The other question is how far will they stick out with the spacer??

Not too far....The lugs are kinda short though with spacers...

You should be able to get longer studs at any parts store if they are going to be to short with the spacers
