You may want to get a slight offset (positive I believe, like 11mm - 15mm)
to properly center the wheel. If they will let you try, then do
that. Yes, 4x4.5 is correct, but our lugnuts are 7/16" while most Datsuns
(510, Z) are 12mm, so lugnuts will not interchange. They can look nice,
not my favorite, but if you like them, then go for it.
