Yeah, not all wheels will have enough clearance. Gav, would probably have to measure clearance from mounting pad to wheel centre(effectively spoked section). Might help if you tell him how far out from wheel centre your Nissan calipers sit, so he measures the right spot.

Any aftermarket wheels that will fit Nissan Skyline will be fine? I expect most wheel places will know exactly what is required for Nissan Skyline fitment. I can tell you that Supra's don't require as much caliper clearance, stock Supra wheels will also not clear.

Some wheel manufacturers will tell you which wheels offer high caliper clearance. Some even offer same wheels with different pad heights to clear high calipers.

Curved spokes/curved centres are your friend.

I'm also going to struggle with caliper clearance.
