so i bought some studded tires today, they are the same size as my tire that i have on there now but instead of having them switched on the wheels my dad wants me to find a cheap set of wheels to put the studs on. my question it, what wheels from other cars will fit on a 280z? what is the bolt pattern 4x100? and what is the backspacing? i found alot of honda wheels and such.

4 x 4.5" or 4 x114.3mm IIRC. The Honda wheels wont fit.

Gotta be rear drive offset. You need to find wheels from a Z, old rear drive Celica, early rear drive 810/Maxima, etc. No wheels from any front drive car will work.

thanks i really needed my studs on so i put them on my other wheels

You can also try MGB wheels, as they will fit as well.

Early Ford rims would fit also. Had a set on my 78 280 back in the early 80's. I think they were off an old Mustang.

FWIW
