Hey guys! Is it possible to get these rims to fit on my Generation 1 Xmod?

Here is a link to them in case the pictures doesn't come up:

Well, if you've got an extra 10 bucks to spare, you could try these:

I'm not sure how easy it would be, considering that those rims are metal.

xmodsinternational sells some rims adapters that are made out of aluminum and you should be able to put those in the opening of the mini-z rim and used some sort of strong holding glue to hold it in place...

Yeah you can. They have to be MA-010 rims though. In order for them to fit, you have to modify your axle, or you have to modify the rims.

One second, lemme find you a tutorial.

I made a post with the link in it, which was YOUR thread. And about how the MA010 rims are like. Search it up.

I'm kind of debating on which rims to go with guys. Should I go with the set I originally posted or these from microracers24:

You should go with the set that you like, but if it were my choice, I would pick the five spoke wheels.;)

The rims from the first post.
Much more classy and better suited for the skyline.
Leave the Slipstream* style rims for the Honda's..

*As in Rota Slipstreams. Which are really knock offs of the Spoon SW 388's.. Which are really just Desmond Regamaster Evo's adonized black...

it would actually be for a 350Z not a skyline. I actually like them both equally as much. microracers rims are a direct fit and do not have to be modified where as the mini z rims do have to be modified PLUS I would also have to buy tires for them
