You guys inspired me to drift in 18's so im going to use 2 of my old rims for the rear and the cr kais in the front. front tires shouldnt wear too fast on drift days right? I also realized stock se rims would probably just hit the coilovers in the rear. <-correct me if im wrong in that

So will 18x8.5+35 hit coilovers in the rear? and what tire size should i run with those to drift?

You'll see the most wear up front on the outside. Stock SE's won't hit coils.

205/40 or 215/40 I would say. But I'm not 100% on that so don't quote me.

Might be a little bit too big for the front. Stock body that is. I'm gonna run 17x9+2 effective up front. Perfect fitment imo. Mad-ass posted up a pic of his car with that size/offset a bunch of pages back. If I wasn't lazy, I'd go look for it and post it up again.. but alas I'm lazy.

I'm only asking because XXR is about to release some nice looking wheels for 4lug and they offer them in 17x10 and 17x8, and I really dont want to run a 8in up front... maybe I will do a 5lug conversion after all....

I need to redo the relay wiring for my Taurus fan. I burned up 4 relays and 2 sockets so far and found out that 30amp relay is not enough for taurus fans since they can spike up to 90+ amps on initial start up and require 33+amps when running. thank god I'm running a fuseable link fuse for them. Damn this.. time to swap over to 50 amp relays and maybe get rid of the sockets and switch it out to plugs only, since the sockets hold so much heat and just end up milting down.

Too many little things to fix and I don't wona!

You're going to have to get REAL aggressive with that pull and camber to fit those on stock body. I go with the -12's on the rear, unless you change you mind and run overfenders, then I'd go -25.
17X10+25 will NOT hit your coilover, unless you have some large stock spring coilover that i have never seen, im just kidding, i supose some coilovers have larger body's than others, but a friend of mine has 17X10+25's and he had no trouble with clearance. But -25 would be rediculious, ive seen a 18X12+0 in the rear witch would be close to the same as what you are thinking about and in the front was 18X10+5
P.s. S14FBS your car is Nice
