Hi
I have been on the forums for a while but i dont post very much.
I have a s14 kouki (only cuz i got a good deal) Im a poor student so i can only afford 16 inch wheels and tires.
I found some cool 16x8 inch wheels with a +0 offset and i want to know if they will look nice and fluh or with they looks ghetto mexican flush (no offence)
if anyone had some pics of them on a s14 that would be great.
Any info on how these would fit woul be great
What woudl be the best tire sizes too.
i will be running KTS coilovers too, as soon as they come here (dam groupbuys) but atleast im saving money
thanks
Darius

Try this to help give you a better idea.

Offset Calculator (http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp)

Now it doesn't take suspension and camber into account. But once you know the clearance the wheel requires, you should have a better idea of how they will fit.

they will be sorta flush but not quite. tire size will depend on what kind of driving you will be doing.

you should be fine.might need to roll your fenders but thats about it. i doubt you will need to pull. if you REALLY feel you need to it will be very slight. This all depends on how low you are going as well.

i have the same spec rims waiting to go on my car as we speak and i did a LOT of research on the fitment. i also have an s13... your s14 has abou 15mm more clearance (IIRC) in the rear so you are even better off than i am.

hope that helps. if all esle fails, check out the wheel spec threads... there are like 3 haha.

i already got replacement for the one stolen from me. I was thinking about it, but then i know I will get z32 caliper up front and those meshies will not clear. They are pretty cool though. You can always go there and test fit them on your car. Ask the owner,
