    • anything in particular you're after? what sort of coin are you looking to spend?

      Try Barrel Brothers in Sydney, mates of mine started a classic wheel resto business... they have some cool $hit, they cater to the Datsun/Toyota scene, so 4x100 is harder to come across in stock, but if you ask they'll keep their eye out.

      These are their current 13's in stock.

          • Wobble bolts to 114? lol. Im in no rush to find wheels, im pretty happy to wait and find a awesome set or even import something from Japan. On the other hand my firewall is all sealed, still have alot of bogging and all that left but will probably wait until the engine is out, will be so much easier.


            Now onto the floors.. than happy sailing after!

              • Are talking way back? As far as i know most datsuns and yotas 1970+ are 114.3. My friend keeps telling me to run adapters but i don't want to have to use 30mm just for that haha.

                • Even up to the 90's they were 4x100. All those wheels look old school so they should fit the MK1.

                  Do a search on PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) for 4 stud Datsuns and Toyotas. Nissan's were a different size, Hondas are 4x100 too.

                  • all the toyota's, datsun/nissan's, mitsubishi's etc. were 114.3's while they were rear wheel drive. they changed to 100's when they went to front wheel drive.

                    • Looks like you're right about the Datsuns. All these were 4x100 - Corolla 1987-2007, MR2 1984-2007, Honda Civic 1983-2006, BMW 3 Series 1975-1990, Mazda MX5, heaps of Renaults too.

                        I learned something from the guys at BB the other day, wheels like these Advans from what I put up earlier have an adjustable PCD, and it's quite easy for them to go from 4x100 out to about 4x120.

                        if you like I'll ask the guys to keep me up to speed with what comes in with a 4x100 adaptability.

                        • Adjustable pcd? Ive followed them on facebook so i might see when they have some in my pcd. Those advans are sexy..

                          • basically the bolt hole can slide, and it allows the stud pattern to change.
