Can someone tell me the offset (and weight if you know) of the factory GSL-SE wheels? I have a chance to get a good deal on a set and I'll use them as spares for autox if they fit on my base S4 FC.



Thanks,

Chris

SE rims I'm imagining would be heavier then FC rims seeing the amount of spokes they have on them.Why not run 240sx rims???I hear they are pretty light and you can get them from a local wrecker.Also sentras(newer)and preludes(92-96)run a 4x114 pattern too.Just not too sure on the offset.

I'm not really looking for wheels but this is a good deal that's why I wanted to find out the offset and see if they will fit right

Oh,I think the SE's and FC's have the same offset.I'm not 100% sure on it tho.I know the FD's is totally different.Sorry I can't be more help. :redface:

I found this link with a bunch of OEM and aftermarket wheel weights. It says the 14" GSLSE wheel is 13.0 lbs. and the 86-88 base 14" wheel is 13.5 lbs. That's not bad at all considering most of the other OEM wheels out there.

Cool site.So are you getting SE rims then?

FCmaniac 01-22-2003 05:45 AM

I was... they were on ebay and some guy outbid me with 8 minutes left. I'm just going to get two more phone dials since I have two now.



I think the GSLSE rims look better and I'm sick of seeing phone dial rims but **** it. I have to do everything on a budget... you know how that is.
