Only thing you really have to worry about about if you're really low is that your tire might rub the rubber grommet for the wiring harness, if its low enough. I had this issue and I just had to beat that whole wall to pull the grommet further back. But I still rubbed on the bottom of it from time to time.

Take a grinder to the caliper face, then A-Disk will fit. (These are S14 4 pot, but clearance difference will be minimal)

I have some XXR 527s with 215/40/18s. The offset will be roughly -5 (25mm pbm spacer) front and -10 (30mm pbm spacer) rear. I need to know how much of a pull i will need for the rears and front. I will run about -5 camber front and rear. if anyone has any pictures close to this please present them.

Personally, I would recommend not butchering your fenders for XXR wheels with spacers.
Would you have the 18X9.75 +20 as your base offset? I'd say space it out to a -5 out back and +0 up front and you shouldn't need a pull at all.

Is this a serious question? No you dont cut the metal. You roll it flat and then pull as needed to get your wheels to fit. And that's not even a fitment question next time try google or YouTube

ok so right now i am running an 18x10 +18 in the rear with 235/40 Nankang NS-II's on stock metal.
I will be adding 50mm rear fenders and running an 18x12 -7, which sits exactly 50mm out from where my current wheels are. my question is, should i go with a 285/30 or 295/30 on my new wheels if i want about -2.5* camber? i want the wheels to be as close to stock size as possible so my speedo isnt way off, which is why im leaning towards the 295/30's. what are your thoughts on this? i think the 295's will fit without any problems but im not entirely sure. 235/40's = 94mm sidewall 285/30's = 85.5mm sidewall 295/30's = 88.5mm sidewall |

295/30-18 is pretty much on the money of OEM diameters. I would personally put the wheels on with the tires, get your alignment done with the specs you want...then install your fenders so you can bow the fenders to fit the wheels properly.
Question to you is, whats the point of running 295s if you're gonna add -2.5* of camber out back? Doesnt sound like you got a reason to run anything more than 1*. Also, what tire are you thinking of getting? |

im running a little camber out back because im drifting on a stock KA with over 190k, LOL.
im not sure which tires yet honestly, there arent many companies that make that size so i was thinking of going with some Hankook Ventus V12 EVO's. i dont need anything special because the 12's will just be my daily rollers. Or maybe some Falken FK-452's |

you might need a tiny spacer man. R-Disk is the only one i know of that clears for sure. we are talking about Work wheels right? every company kinda uses their own disk types.

Wheel newb here. I have a s13 hatch with agx/teins springs amd I'm about to pick some xxr 962. Im thinking 18 x 8.5 +35 all around. Looking for flush fitment. Read that +20 is flush. Is this correct? Any advise? Pics of how they look with this setup. Been researching and havent find any pics. Also have some tires 225/40 and 245/40 at house.
Thanks for help |

I'm in the same boat as you, stock KA with over 190k with turbo compression (140-145, meaning its a fucking dead KA). I've drifted it on slipping clutch and I can break lose 235s feinting. I'm running 0 camber in the rear just cuz I want my tires to last a bit. I need to slap this other clutch I got and hopefully beat the shit out of this middle of may. |

I have a zenki w all adjustable arms and coils, I'm looking at a set of 18x10 +15 wheels, I would love to run 10 inch wide wheels on all 4 corners w the same size tires (245/35 maybe?) front and rear so I can keep them rotated as well. I know I can fit these under stock metal w a roll and probably a pull in the rear, my question is, besides tucking the harness and a good bit of BFHing on the inner wheel wells, is this really logical? I do intend on running it zilvia low, car is not a dd or a super duper drift car, just prefer to drive it around town and maybe some quick blasts around the parkway. Spacer in the front? I will go 9.5s if I have to but they only come in +20 which means bigger spacer which in my mind is no bueno

What happened to running 265/35's? Why did you change your mind?

you must have me mistaken with someone else, i never said i was going to run 265/35's.
however, after looking through a shitload of pages in the fitment thread and tire stretch thread last night, i am in fact going to be getting 265/35 Feddys for the rear. |

I have been through this thread and all I see are 18's and over 8" wide. Cool, but not what I want since I am going with an OEM 'sleeper' look.
What size in a 17x7-8 wheel will fit, turn, and work with shocks and springs and a 225-17-45 tire? I want to run tsuraichi, tucked, no poke, no oni kwon camber, just a basic fit a 225 on a 17 and make it work without doing anything more than maybe a little bat work between the fender and tire. Am I on crack? The OEM 5 lugs sit an inch deep with 16x 205, so that means a 225 should be able to work with a little +/-(no clue, not expereinced with this stuff...motors, yeah, wheel/tire fit, not so much)

How difficult is it to bore out the wheel center hubs without effecting their structure or strength? I have a set of ccw's that have Honda size hub. I need to bore them out slightly to fit my Nissan hub.
