350Z wheels on S13 200SX

Heya guys,

are any of you running 350Z wheels on a S13 200SX?
I've got a set coming off a car soon, and I'd love to put those on the SX.

I've been looking around, and overall the best option does look like buying a set of hubs that allow the 5x114 PCD from the Z wheels.
I've also seen adapter plates, but honestly, I don't want to change offsets or have an adapter that might fail under load.

The hub conversion (if I buy new parts from eBay) will ultimately end up with a R4500 - R5000 price tag, excluding any possible issues and extra costs with changing calipers, rotors etc.
If anyone could shed some information, it would be greatly appreciated.

I will continue doing research and hopefully end up with a solution.

The look I'm hoping for (albeit not AS low):

Worked fine with the ichiba hubs

I rate it would look even better with the newer spec 350 wheels

Yes, it would probably look better with the new rims, but I have this set just waiting for me!
I know the HR 350Z rims look very nice on the 300ZX (chap in the Z Club has a set on his car), but for now the DE 350Z's rims will do good

The only thing I'm not sure of about the Ichiba set, is the calipers etc.. does it all fit together fine without needing to modify?
I've read up on it a bit, and it does seem you need to change a few things for the Ichiba hubs to work, it might have been a modified car already, without the owner knowing.

you can fit 5 stud hubs Ichiba
then just get your discs re drilled to 5 stud pcd and you are on your way
most upgrade brakes while they are busy with the hubs but it is not needed

I will definitely consider that option, thanks.
At the moment I don't want to modify the car too much, but a brake upgrade is definitely in the pipeline

Thanks for the info.
