Huh? You should surf around on here and take a look at some of the wheel threads.

7 and 8 inch wide wheels on an S14 are nothing.

I run 17x9 +17 all around with nothing other than fenders rolled and a TINY amount of pull.

They fit, but why not look for a set of the SHP 8/9.

16x8 -10
16x7 +18... you'll need a spacer to get any sort of fitment on the front.

hhhmmm ok thanks thats what i thought.......there shouldnt be any problem.

What I should of said initially is that I have actually already got them and they dont fit at all.......

The rears stick about 25mm beyond the arch without any spacers? and the fronts hit the caliper with 3 mm spacing, there isnt any chance of more spacing because there will be no thread left for the nuts?

I thought that they were quite a straight forward fit........have I gone and bought some weird fake starions?
