Banner's hating on me for getting these. But IDC. I dig em...

Probably gonna rock them on the be for a minute... Not sure. 210 has new wheels, might just put these on the 210, then put the 210 wheels on the B and rock the hubcaps a bit longer, but I am tired of the hub cabs. Thems fuckers growing resentment from me...

Are those old Roadster wheels.

I like em.
As a temp solution-it's a good one.

Better than generic steelies.

There is a Roadster here in town driven by an old man.
Has said everything is as was when he bought it new.

Wheels look exactly the same.

Shrug lol.

They might give the wheel a little poke vs what's going on now. Which I don't mind. And they are slightly smaller than what's on the B now...

He must be mistaken. I've never seen a stock datsun roadster wheel that looks like that.


here is the stock roadster wheel.

I can't find the name of these, but I did find a set similar on a 311 website saying someone had these on a Z car, then put them on a roadster... But theres were 14". These are 13"

From what I know, roadsters came with stock 14 steelies and caps

Don't have them yet. Getting up at 6am saturday and hitting the road... hopefully he still has them... He said if they aren't sold by tomorrow night then he will let me know and hold them till I get there saturday.

Maybe I can dip out of work tomorrow and go then
