HAHAAHAH.

I find it extremely amusing that people are bagging on the seller of the wheels.... when they are talking nonsense.

"halfway decent" is something that cannot be judged for each car. Just for everyone's info:

On S13:
- The fitment would be almost perfect front/rear. At most, rear minor rolling of fender, tire selection does NOT have to be stretched. Front might not work with coilovers like Zeal, but will work with JIC or ones with better lower bracket clearance. Ask Aaron (Dousan) about this, he did his research already.
- Will NOT need any spacers. Unless you want stretched look with super camber.

On S14:
- Fitment will actually allow good tire choices, especially if you run "normal" tire or want more meat on the tires. No fender mods AT ALL.

I really don't get why people are dissing him on the offset of the wheels when they are fine. I understand some people want it to be "flush" but even the definition of "flush" varies from person to person... and car to car. It would be almost pointless to say what is flush and what isn't, without any knowledge of tire size, alignment specs, fender mods (if any), etc.

And if anyone wants to argue wheel setups with me, I'm game. I've been in the industry long enough to know my wheels... ESPECIALLY WORK WHEELS.

Just ask Jay (CleanS14). HAHAHAHAAH.

ANyhow, Here's another fast bump, because the seller is selling a decent set of wheels for a decent price, WITH DECENT OFFSET.

If you want extreme offset you can always go order a new set of VS-KF. With Golden Week this week in Japan, you can be lucky if you see your wheels before AUGUST or SEPTEMBER.

i agree with Mav1178, people these days are going a little too far with low offset wheels, there are people out there who prefer a little higher offset (30's in the rear) like myself inorder to fit wider tires(275's +) without having to do an extreme fender pull or wide fenders

If you believe everything you just wrote below this statement, then what you quoted zenkiticks saying is not nonsence. You can't have it both ways and say, everyone has their own personal opinionto what looks right, and then call someone an idiot for saying what he thinks looks right.

No one is doubting your "ALL KNOWINGNESS" of work wheels. Nor does anyone really care how much you know about them, becuase it is quite frankly irrelevent.

I like the wheels, personally I ordered mine in a much lower offset, but that's just because I think they look better with a bigger lip.

How much tire is a "decent size" tire? lol

Anyway, Jonny you know I love the wheels :-) Goodluck selling them and BUMP.

Unless you're making over 500whp i don't see why you need that big of a tire (275+++) I mean @ 300-400hp 245-255's are fine (what I ran @ 350whp) and you can still run a fairly low offset with just a roll on s14's.

you're retarded. don't be so quick so quick to play your "omniscient" card(s). the guy said he would've picked lower offsets had he bought them new. if you read the entire thread, i was merely helping someone else figure out that the wheels may fit differently on his/her vehilce due to the fact that the seller uses spacers. a little sarcasm? yea, who cares, and the seller agreed.

245-255 was not enough at near 300rwhp, my new setup should be near 400rwhp, so having decent traction would be nice
