Hi, Noob here Nice forum BTW, Too many sweet motors! After fancying some retro tin for a long time I`ve finally some to replace my previous "Ronker" 306 estate. 1988 Nissan Bluebird 1.6 LS...Impulse Ebay buy with 12 months MOT,6 months tax and most of its S/H. Must say I love it! Plans are some nicer wheels, maybe abit lower when I don't have to use it for work anymore and "OAP+" Interior touches (tartan blanket, beaded seat covers ect) Hope y`all like, Pete

Loads of room I`d say..hell I`ll throw an RB26 in there Its a very clean car TBH,the backs of the rear arches are rotting though and its had a repair/bodge on the offside rear door/arch but they add to its charm Took some better pics the other day My old bike rack fits a treat too...bonus

If I had the garage space/ability to do so I would! On the lookout for some decent rims at the moment.

Good old OAP+!
Personally though I'd have just restored the hubcaps and roll them as it looks proper tidy! And perhaps just running banded steels for the width and stance, but keeping the hubcaps on ;D ;D
Either way for £40 those wheels were a pretty good deal. They are from a Silvia aren't they?

Aye they`re from an S13 200SX IIRC. I actually like the hubcaps but they don't fill the arches out enough for me!

^^^^ to be fair they're similar at a glance. THough a bit "softer" and less chunky in design. I have a few of these RS wheels lying around and strangely i've been asked the same question in reverse. It was actually about the very similar 5 stud granada version and they asked how i'd got "5 stud 180sx wheels"
Tidy bluebird by the way petea. I do like your term OAP+
I think i'm going to have to do bring in some kind of "farm+" or "agri+" look for my very dirty battered passat daily (it used to carry livestock, dogs and turf around the west of ireland)
