As the title says, I'm looking for front and back 10 or 15mm spacer kits for my 5x114.3 S14. I'm not entirely sure which I need, my wheels are 18x8 +40 with a 225x40r18 in the front and 255x40r18 in the back. Any advice is also welcome.

18x8 +40?

tires u should go with: 195 or 205/40/18.

as for spacers, i'd say at least 25-30mm bolt-ons to have them sitting semi flush (especially on an S14 chassis). u running coils or shock/spring combo?

Yea.. definite no on the tire suggestion, the tires are fine. As for the offset, I have seen an s14 with 350z rims (18x8 +30) and they were within maybe 5-10mm from completely flush, same size tires as well. +25 or +30 is the ideal offset for an S14, I know that much, I wasn't sure which would fit the best. I am running coils.

you gotta be kidding me bro! you really think 18x8 plus 30 offset is gonna sit flush on an s14 chassis?!?! maybe you should do more reseach b4 you tell someone with over 1000 post whats gonna sit flush. may god have mercy on your car cuz your wheels and sunken battle ship offsets sure wont.

I think you got some specs wrong because any wheels that are 18x8 +40 offset will not sit flush with 10mm or even 15mm spacers on an s14. You need to recheck your info..

The previous comments by those guys arn't wrong. But you put +40 on your thread, then you commented above its 30.... WHICH IS IT!! +40 will still look sunkin in with a 15mm spacer, but if its +30 then a 15mm spacer will sit almost flush, no perfect but then your pictures should be about right...

^^^ Exactly CalPolyKing.

Lev, you said your wheels are 18x8+40, but the wheels pictured on your car are +30 350z wheels?? If you put the 10-15 mm spacers on the 350z wheels, then that would definitely be close to flush.... and by flush, i mean not able to stick some fat fingers between the tire n fender gap.

Pictures are of a 350z wheel which is 18x8 +30 with no spacer. 18x8 +40 with a 10mm spacer = 18x8 +30 effectively.
