Those look very likely. Sounds like you could ask them to confirm it.

I'm sorry, but I have to revive this posting. I am a bit confused still. I have the 280Z 6 spoke wheels for my 1968 Roadster. I still have the original Roadster studs on mine and need to buy the lugs for the Z 6 spoke wheels. Can someone confirm the below part numbers and measure so that I can order it today. Please.

The important measurement is the diameter of the shank....
0.73 inches

Without looking, that sounds correct.....
You can measure the holes in your wheels to make sure they are correct.

Go to your favorite discount tool or auto parts and buy a digital vernier for $10-20.

EDIT:......0.73 is the correct diameter.

While they may bolt on, they may foul on the earlier fenders with smaller flares. Especially us 1500 guys...

BTW, your links aren't working. How about giving the ebay auction numbers.

The 280zx 6 spokes fit fine. I had to use one inch spacers to fit them into my flairs (and longer studs, and modified the wheel so the lug went through the wheel and into the spacer), so I think they will be fine stock. I had to use a 1/4" spacer for the fronts but that was to clear the Toyota brake conversion (no other mods for the front, assuming one has the correct lug nuts as discussed).

BTW, these will all be for sale with nearly new tires soon!

At the boneyard those lug nuts used to be like acorns on the ground, just pick 'em up...very common. They fit all 280ZX and ZXt factory alloys. 1984 and later 300Z lugnuts are slightly different still, but have identical thread to the prior Z models (12mm X 1.25)
