If you want the most tire in the rear for an S14, stick with high 20's to mid 30's on your offset with a 10" wheel. High teens and low 20's are what you need for a 9" upfront.

So let me give you an example of what I want. If I get 17x9.5 +30 with 275/40 rear and 17×9 +22 255/40 front, I would only have to do minor pulling? Also I have 95, stance coilovers, already rolled fenders and quarters

Curious if anyone has some suggestions on what I should run on my 180sx. I will be running 50mm front fenders and 70mm rear fenders in the near future and currently own a pair of 18x9j +12 and 19x9.5j +05.

Just a ballpark:

Rear 18x12.5 and 335+

Somewhere in the +7 offset range.

Front will work with 11.5" wide and -5 offset.

Appliance Wire Mag Wheels Made in Japan in the 70's
Found them deep in craigslist for $100.

15x8 -38 offset

rear tires are 195/55
fronts 185/50

Not currently maxed out on coilovers. the rears rub pretty bad. ive rolled as much as possible. Most likly going over fenders vs adding camber to fit.

Why not get tires that fit better?

Edit: -38? You need wheels that fit better.

yea if only they still made these wheels. and in different offsets

i could go with a smaller tire but will still rub. i would like to lower it back down without adding camber. which i can do, but need over fenders.

They fit amazingly except for the rear. and you act like im the only one needing to modify my rear fenders to fit better. many have pulled,rolled. and or fender flares(bolt on or molded). even over fenders. i can make the fit fine with negative camber. but not interested in doing that. thats for fanbois and honda fags now lol

I could sell the wheels for a profit. Offered $800 when i first bought them. But these are rare wheels. I put alot work in cleaning them and getting the curb rash out. Not going to sacrifice them because of you and only your opinion. Everyone has different tastes. And my taste is original/old school. Not jumping on the bandwagon. Not a Fanboi that has to have super donk 2 piece wheels to have a fat lip.




just giving out negative comments on someones hard work is just being a....

there are many schassis i dont agree with on here. but i dont leave rude comments to make myself be heard or feel good.

we have the same passion. Schassis. dont be a

I don't mind rolling fenders to prevent rubbing, but I can't stand for wheels to stick out past the sides. Car is breaking loose the stock 205 tires so need to get some more meat back there.

Just trying to find more pictures of that size & offset that don't use spacers, etc. Car is stock height right now, haven't decided on coilovers or springs just yet, goal is a fun street car - not a stance or a track missile.

I am looking for similar information. My initial measuring gives me a 17x8 +27 front and 17x9 + 25 rear 'proper' fitment but every picture I'm seen doesn't state whether spacers were used or not.

What are you doing up front for the 18x11's?

Longer LCA's and relocating upper mounts?

Hey guys, I'm sure you've heard this a thousand times, but I've searched! What I'm hoping to find out is if my new tires will fit. Currently on my s14 I have 17x10 +25 with rolled fenders, running a 235-40-17. The new tires in question are 245-40-17. Thanks in advanced and I apologize if this is in the wrong area.

Thanks!

Definitely in the wrong area. Try the wheel fitment whore thread. On a 17x10, you should definitely be running a 275/40r17 at least.

On a +25 wheels!? That would look terrible! The goal is to have it not come past the rear fender, but to still clear the arch.

295 clears rear fenders with a +30 offset on s14 with just a slight pull. 5mm is not a big difference.
