Yes, at around 2.5-3.5 degrees of camber, "flush" with stock body is roughly 10.5 +20, -20 would be 40mm further out so 30mm overs would work well considering their flexible nature.

Well, make sure you got the wheels with tires, camber evened out before you mount the fenders on. That way, you can use the wheels as a reference to bow the fenders out and they'd be even.

I have a full set of isis suspension arms and I'm going to go 17x10 + 20 all around and I'm wondering if anyone knows the maximum amount of camber my arms will allow me. I'm gonna be running 245/45s so it'll be a lot of work but I need quite a bit of camber to make it fit obviously.

anyone know?

^^^What chassis and what makes you think you'd need a crazy amount of camber? Rolling the fenders and maybe a slight pull should be able to fit that. Also, what suspension are you running, particularly up front? Strut/spring setup or coilovers?

The L disk will clear the z32 in the fronts. i ran an 18x9.5 -3 L disk on a 20mm front fender no spacers are needed also ran a 18x9 +16 L disk on a stock body on the fronts

I have an s13 with megan streets. And I'll have z32 full front brakes

^^^Well good luck to you up front. I had to run spacers to clear my damn MR coilovers on 17x10 +12.

yeah i know i'm gonna need good sized spacers. I couldnt even get the wheel on all the way before it hit the coilover. I just don't know what size. some people say 20mm, some say 10..

Would 19x10 -1 be too small for a 50mm over fender?
The wheel is a 19x10 and can either be -1 or -7 offset depending on spacers. How would it fit under a 50mm over?

this is 18x10-1 225/40 on my old car.

if you want to run a 255+ and zero camber, sure.

otherwise youll need a 50mm spacer.

That depends entirely on the tire size and amount of camber you will be running. At 0 to -1 degrees with a 255, it may be a suitable size. At -4 degrees and 215s, it may leave a bit more to be desired.

*edit, ended up just being an echo of the above post lol.

Thanks a lot man, and i'd prefer to run a really meaty tire with little camber. There is a spot locally that has tons of 19s in beefy sizes that are good tread for the free.

Finally able to put pics up, The rims were 17x9 +35 and I was planning on running a 10mm spacer all around, but I didn't need to in the rear, and the fronts only needed a 8mm to clear the struts (no coilovers). Running 245/40/17 Dunlop Direzza's

Fronts stick out a tad, but when I get coilovers I'll set the camber to they are in. Rears are both right at the limit, could probably use a spacer to fill out the wheel well a little more. Nothing is rolled or pulled and there is no contact on the fenders/wheel wheels. Currently I have about *1 of camber all around.

I'd like to thank you guys for your help and insight. Interestingly the speedo is still reading higher than actual speed (gps confirmed) by like 3mph at 80mph

[ov1989]

Ok guys need your help, I kind of have an idea but not sure how much camber and pull I'll need on stock body to run 18x10 +5 with 225/40 yokohoma's

If its on a S13, thats a good size. Inner lips will have to be flatten, mild pull.

The rears would be need a bit of negative camber. Tire size is good tho

Yes, s13 and I have a roll right now but willing to pull to avoid a gazillion negative camber. How much camber would you think I would need to run? .. not looking to run much camber. ... OH and it will be +0 not +5 after all. I don't think it changes too much though.

[ILoveJDM]

is this for real?

everything you want is literally not even half way up the page.

[ov1989]

Nah! For fake...chill dude......cyber bully.

and I didn't notice the post up with the red hatch..

anybody have any experience with wheel adapters. i wanna run cobra 4 lug reps but the bolt pattern is 4x4.25(4x108). if i buy 1" adapters that change the bolt pattern from 4x4.5(4x114.3) to 4.25(4x108) will i run into any problems? anyone ever try this?

[fliprayzin240sx]

If you can help it, dont. Just buy the correct patterned wheels.

[vndrew]

yeah i think the offset would be too low being that 1" = 25mm. know of any low offset wheels in 17" with 4x114.3 bolt pattern?

[SilviaSlut_39]

I have 9.5J on 225/40/18'S that i think is a beautiful look but not to crazy of a stretch.

There's a bunch of knock off wheels out there nowadays that make what you're looking for. Start looking thru XXR wheel's catalog if you're in a budget.

[vndrew]

xxrs seem very tacky to me is there any other brands that make good reps?

You're looking for fake wheels and you're calling XXR very tacky?

PS this isn't the thread to ask this. Try google.

[vndrew]

You seem upset. Everyone else is helping me out. You don't think I know how to interwebz and use google?

How about this...this is a wheel fitment question thread, not a damn help pick a wheel for me thread. There are 4 lugs wheels out there now but still not as good as a picking if you convert to 5 lugs. Not a whole lot of quality wheel companies out there cater to 4 luggers. If you're being picky, sounds like you need to go 5 lug.

Hey guys I just wanted to get a little input on something just to get an idea of any necessary items like spacers that I would need.

So I have an S14.5 with Origin +20mm fenders up front and stock metal rear. I am set on buying a set of 19 x 10 +19 wheels. I have z32 front and rear as well, which I know just a spacer will fix that if my barrel design is not able to clear. I also do not have coil overs yet.

There will be almost no drifting on these wheels so im not worried about full lock rubbing and stuff like that. I just wanted to make sure that the fronts will be okay, since the origin stuff takes a few months to arrive if I mess up my fender. What other coilovers would clear the fronts besides apexi N1s? I might be set on bc type br coils and I assume they are the same thing essentially.




front






Cant really judge the rear lol





Btw, ive been reading up to page 15 so far to see if anyone else has this problem


Edit- read all 85 pages so far. so far I understand from flips repetition that

9j +9 and 10j +10, 1* camber =8mm, don't go wider than 9.5 in front, do whatever you want in rear.

I'm not gonna be slammed herraflush, so my 19 x 10 +19 should be good all around with some minor camber up front and a small spacer to clear whatever coils I get.
Rear should be okay will a roll and some camber if I need it.

Anyone care to suggest some wide wheel friendly coils? I know flipz said his aragostas cleared a lot and I'm not running any Megan stuff.

Hey before you decide to look dumber than you were, check out this entire thread. I've done my share of helping. You really should've taken my suggestion before asking to be spoonfed information.
