    They look like 16"x9.5 ET 35+. Hard to tell.

    but somewhere else they're selling four of the same wheel in
    17x9 24mm offset for less
    I'll go with these better

    You are going to need a 1"-1.5" Spacer in the rear just to get them to fit.

    .5"-1" in the front.

    They're a direct fit on an 88 Z31(17x9 24mm offset). Maybe a small spacer on the back wheels to make it flush with the edge of the 1/4 panel

    I was referring to these.

    The others set would be the best bet, obviously.

    when considering size, compare to people with 2003 cobra wheels. they are a 17x9 et27

    Will need at least a 15mm spacer. IMO a 20-25mm spacer would be best.

    Would look a lot better with some more lip.

    I'm sure I'll put some spacers in the back. What's a good place to get some? Do I also need longer wheel studs?

    You could get hub centric adapters. They bolt on to the hub and have threaded bolts for the wheels.

    As an alternative to getting longer studs. I used Airwolfe racing on eBay. You can contact them for custom sizes and specifications. About $125 a set (2) shipped.

    Reminds me of work meisters. There is a pic of a black zenki with gold meisters on them floating around somewhere. Go for it, they should look awesome. I am also looking for some gold with a polished lip for the SS.
