S13 Gangsta Wheel Fitment

[S13-Silvia]

I plan on getting some Work Meister S1's in 18x9 and 18x10 for an S13. I'm just trying to find out what is the lowest offset I can get away with, with only stock rolled fenders and a maximum camber setting of like 3 or 4 degrees? For the front I was thinking less than 15+ offset, and for the rear less then 20+ offset. I would love the run 0+ offset all around. Can any of you help me out?

[McRussellPants]

Sounds pretty Ka-ka-ka-KRAZZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYyyy.

[aa87]

-45 FTW


Check the wheel thread?

[S13-Silvia]

Yea, didn't find what I was looking for. McRussellPants I thought you were ViceRoy, and I thought they were all about gangsta wheel fitment?

[datboibrad]

+0 isnt all that gangsta...toss some +20-25mm spacers on the rear with some serious camber. that might get you into the gangster area your wanting.

[S13-Silvia]

0+ offset is gangsta enough for me and I don't want to run any spacers.

[hella_flushed]

not impossible. i'm runnin work euroline sl 18x9 (R disk) and 18x10 (O disk) +0et all around on my s14. just be sure to roll/pull you fenders a bit esp. the rears.

[Red Square]

i believe you negitive offset to be gangsta....... any positive offset, including +0, is considered wangsta

18x9/10+0 would be pretty stupid gangster

But keep in mind that if you are new to the 240, much less wheel fitment, then I wouldn't suggest going from zero to stupid aggressive right off the bat. Up to you, but a lot of people often bite off more than they can chew, and then wonder what happened.

Keep in mind that you do have you make your choice based on the sizing charts though...are you going 2 or 3 piece?

It would matter because with 3 piece you could max out at 18x9+10 (A Disk) 18x10+5 (O Disk).

3 Piece:
http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/wheels/index/mst3p/mst3p.pdf

Two piece gives you a little more freedom (due to free offsets) but still caps you out at either of the following:

Front: 18x9+9 (A Disk) or as low as 18x9-4 (T Disk)
Rear: As low as 18x10-2 (A Disk) or 18x10+15 (O Disk)

2 Piece:
http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/wheels/index/mst2p/mst2p.pdf

Let me know if you need help figuring that out.

Decide first whether you want 2 or 3 piece.

Gangsta wheel fitment has anything to do with 9's. You need atleaset 10's and they should be negative offset.

[chmercer]

bingo

my offsets are so high, that the left wheel actually sticks out of the right wheel well.

[S13-Silvia]

My bad, I meant the 2 piece S1's. The 18x9+9 and 18x10+15 sounds good to me. Thats going to need like 4 degrees of negative camber isn't it? And I'm not a wheel fitment master, but I've done my homework.

[Ninjabread]

^^rofl.......

[McRussellPants]

maybe 5.

18x9 -4 225/40
18x10 -2 245/40

This is like how I want it just without pulled fenders, I know I won't get away with negative offsets with rolled fenders without like 7 degrees of camber like HerbReal's red S13, but can I fit 18x9+9 and 18x10+15 with front-225/40 and rear-235 or 245/40 tire sizes with less than 5 degrees cambers?

EDIT: Also would the O DISK have a bigger lip?

[drifts135]

That isn't his s13....

The car has 0 degrees of camber right now.

[S13-Silvia]

I know its not mine, I saw it on another thread and thats kind of what I was looking for. Aslo I know I'm gonna run more than 2 degrees of camber.

Also Drifts135, I was the one who asked you what your tire sizes were(eghatch2321).

[A Spec Products]

5 degrees camber? 4 degrees camber?

What are you smoking? Haha

You'll need aftermarket ruca, you will probably max out stock arms at 3.5 degrees

I'd shoot for something like 2 degrees rear

[S13-Silvia]

Will 2 degrees camber fit 18x10+15 on the rear? Also do the O DISK have a bigger lip and will they clear Z brakes? I think the T DISK is for big calipers.

[upSLIDEdown]

Will 2 degrees camber fit 18x10+15 on the rear? Also do the O DISK have a bigger lip and will they clear Z brakes? I think the T DISK is for big calipers.

Doubtfull. I'm running 18x10 +13 with a 235/40 out back. Search for my posts, I don't have time to find a pic right now. My fenders are pulled, and I'm in the -3.5 to -4* range. I know I posted them in the wheel spec thread.

[S13-Silvia]

Yea I've seen your S13, its Black isn't it? Ok, new plan, I'm going to get 17's instead of 18's. This is what I'm thinking, 17x9+10 215/40 and 17x10+15 235/40. That should fit with some good camber and rolled fenders, plus its like $400 cheaper than 18's.

[markyboi]

im getting 17x9 +10's on my s13 coupe with 225/45..maybe 235/40's


i hope thats gangsta enuff for you...its gangsta enuff for a ka engine

[Brian]

17x9 +15
18x9.5 +12


hahahah fa sho fa sho

[KA24DESOneThree]

17x9 +10 isn't gangsta. I'm a grip guy and even I don't think that's gangsta. It's what I roll with 245/40s on moderately pulled fenders with 2.7* of negative camber.

Only stretch if you can't fit. Otherwise you're just a complete fashion whore.

[Brian]

what the fuck do you think drifting is?
fashio whore!
I'm a fashion whore.

[yokotas13]

quit asking, use your mind and some math and do it

[McRussellPants]

Ugh, for the sake of ending this shitpile of a thread.

BH is right, for no pull

17x9 +15
18x9.5 +12

It looks baller enough on one peice wheels. but paying for that sizing on a multipeice wheel would be retarded.

[A Spec Products]

Will 2 degrees camber fit 18x10+15 on the rear? Also do the O DISK have a bigger lip and will they clear Z brakes? I think the T DISK is for big calipers.

T or R Disk = Big Caliper
A Disk = Regular face
O Disk = Deep lip, least clearance

O Disk won't clear z brakes

A Disk maaaaaaybe (probably), cause Meister S1 design to begin with has good clearance, but if I needed to put money on it I'd just run big caliper face

[CrazyIvan]

what happened to gangster fitment?
if you aint rocking negative offset it aint gangster IMO

[chmercer]

what is all this 5-7 degrees of camber lol. you would have to bottom out a cusco ruca and then like cut and weld it even shorter to get 7 degrees. this thread sucks ass

some dude has junction produce 18x11 -somthing on a onevia with stock fenders, look around for that

bubbubbubut he doesn't want to roll his fenders.

[ayuaddict]

thats 18x11 with a negative offset?

my weak 15x8 -20 stuck out around 1-2 inches on stock fender and RUCAs...

i can see that he pulled his fenders...

and from chmercer's post and from the picture i can see he dosent have much negative camber...

still dosent make sence.

can somebody explain how this might actually make sence.

[upSLIDEdown]

Yea I've seen your S13, its GREEN isn't it?

Fixed. Here. 18x10 +13 with a 235/40 Direzza DZ101. Fronts are 18x9 +5 with a 225/40 on them, just for reference. And the fronts were pulled slightly. My front camber plates are maxed out (Megan Coils)

[ayuaddict]

wow, that car from vipstyle is hot...

dude what the hell else is there to do with a 240 besides wheel fitment. might as well make more threads about it.

original poster, copy the car with junction produce.

omg anyone else notice those wheels from that VIPStyle car are 4 lug.... baller man, baller

[l20bdime]

what is all this 5-7 degrees of camber lol. you would have to bottom out a cusco ruca and then like cut and weld it even shorter to get 7 degrees. this thread sucks ass


I am running -4 degrees in the rear on my S13 with the stock RUCA. and I can go even more negative than that (-6ish) but my car is very low. But I go through tires like crazy at events. But thats what I need to run to fit my wheels. Thats why I'm gunna get wider wheel+stretched tire and way less - camber. If this guy wants to drift his car, dont try to fit wheels that require that much camber. If you just wanna look cool then whatever.

[McRussellPants]

lol. stock links have like half a degree of adjustment in them.

Yea, I know, but its cool though because it's just an internet car forum and I really don't care if people say I have gay wheel fitment or what not.

Also I think I might get some burning black VS-KF's instead of the S1's. I love stepped lips, but reverse lips just make the lip look alot bigger and are just plain sexy.

17x9 +10 will fit fine on the front...you may have to pull the front fenders a little bit....not much though. One of the Pink Godzira drivers used to run 9 inch wheel, up front, that was spaced out to +5. He ended up pulling the stock fenders more then what you may need. I forget what he ran in the rear. I think he had the same though.

Concerning the back 17x10 +15 aught to fit with a little bit of a pull.

If you decide to lower your car a lot, you will want to hammer the inner seams flat and ziptie your harness up out of the way. Oh and another thing....to clear brake calipers....look at spoke design. However lower offsets or adding spacers will help your wheels clear your brake calipers.

lol @ +1, and why the .5's??? 18x9 -20 18x11-25 rear....or some thin similar .....fuk that noise.


ps. i own pg4

[Dousan_PG]

.5s sizes kick ass
because u get a tad more stretch and or tire depending what u want

yeah the tires sizes are ok they will fit
as far as disk type, i have no idea

[S13-Silvia]

^^Yea, thats exactly why I want the half sizes. I don't want to get the big caliper disc for the front. I just don't want more than -3 degrees of camber in the rear, I would like about -2 or -2.5, If anyone knows how much camber these sizes will need let me know if I a little higher offset in the rear.

Also I just remember you have 18x10.5+15 on the rear of your car with 30mm fenders, Didn't you post you had around -2 degrees camber with a 245/40 tire? How is the fitment?

[Shift_Drift_S13]

9.5 -6 seems a bit overkill to me.

Are you going to track the car at all? Cause if just for daily drive, then no problem, but a 9.5-6 and 10.5+1 is going to be mexicali style out of the fenders. Also, I'd consider going 17's front if you plan to drive aggressively, 18x9.5 up front is tough in certain cases.

The only upside to running 18s all around is that if you ever need to resell you can sell to a 350z/G35 customer. 17/18 stagger would pigeonhole you in the 240sx market for resell.

If you don't want big brake front, maybe do:

18x9.5+7 (A Disk)
18x10.5+14 (O Disk)

Ok guys, I've really been thinking about this and I want to go with 18x10+0 A Disc with 245/35 and 18x11+20 O disc with 265/35 rears. Will I have coilover or brake issues in the frontwith stance coils and 26mm Z brakes? And this will be the daily driving set up.

your fronts will stick out more than the rears, by A LOT.

and who runs 10 wide rims in front? your steering goes to shit. unless you run tubbed wheel wells etc.

btw, usually the rears have a wider stance than the front...

:stupid: and i don't think the z-brakes are gonna like a-disks. you should probably have a heart to heart with aspec logan on sizing.

haha, honda people? even then they dont go 10" wide upfront.

Oh, And I am running 10" upfront VERY soon. Not 18' though, only 17'. *a

[gotta240]

OVERBOOST- actually steering doesn't go to shit... have you ever drove a 240 w/ 10's up front?

I'm on a 9.5 with a 255 wide front...feels great to me... oh, no tubs, rolled fenders.

9.5 -6 seems a bit overkill to me.

Are you going to track the car at all? Cause if just for daily drive, then no problem, but a 9.5-6 and 10.5+1 is going to be mexicali style out of the fenders. Also, I'd consider going 17's front if you plan to drive aggressively, 18x9.5 up front is tough in certain cases.

The only upside to running 18s all around is that if you ever need to resell you can sell to a 350z/G35 customer. 17/18 stagger would pigeonhole you in the 240sx market for resell.

If you don't want big brake front, maybe do:

18x9.5+7 (A Disk)
18x10.5+14 (O Disk)
logan why you postin pics of my new kicks

[brainfood]

You have changed your mind like 10000 times, just pick a wheel and then make it fit. Rear overfenders can be stretched or smooshed to whatever size you need them, fronts just put them on and measure then get wide fenders.

The rears are the same, fronts are +13 but have a spacer.... I miss that car :-(

[Ian]

:stupid: and i don't think the z-brakes are gonna like a-disks. you should probably have a heart to heart with aspec logan on sizing.

Well I was saying that more in relation to the fact that both wheels will have a 120mm lip

A-Disc isn't a guaranteed fit for 300z brakes...but it's not a sure thing that it WON'T fit either...

Like Logan said...If you're going to shell out this kind of cheddar on wheels, make sure they fit. Find someone running an A-Disc up front w/ 300zx brakes OR go with an R-disc

[S13-Silvia]

I'll go with the set up that Aspec Logan chose, just wanted to see what y'all thought about that set up (must have messed up calculating by making fronts stick out more than rears).

[KiDyNomiTe]

9.5 -6 is doable on an s13, not sure about 18s. I have 17x9.5 -3 and I could probably go a little lower if I wanted. Just a matter of 20mm fenders and pushing them out and running ~3.5 degrees of camber. For those that say thats too much camber sucks to be you, I run it I love it, my tires aren't worn like crazy.

[Cash]

mr_240sx your car looks amazing. A Spec, those VS KF's look amazing as well. These wheel threads drive me crazy. People try to ask a question about offsets or try to show off their new wheels or whatever, and ViceRoy comes in and lets everyone know that they have the widest rims w/ the most rediculous offsets. Everytime. You just can't win. That's awesome for them, but everyone has a different agenda. Personally, I really don't think it's that awesome to have 12" wide rear wheels, a negative, and crazy negative offset unless you have a crazy D1GP setup w/ 500+whp etc., or if you have some kind of show car. That's just my opinion. Some people think it's more important to have a car that looks like it's designed for obsurd amounts of horsepower, and some people are going for practicality.

Well when your wheels are turned, -3.5 camber is probably doing a whole lot of good

The only thing that sucks about it is that you lose alot of braking power in a straight line...

but who needs to brake going straight when you're drifting? Just initiate earlier :bigok:

[2JZGTE]

I'm on oem front/rear fenders and running Work S1 2-piece with 17x9 +5 and 17x10 +10...medium front disk, superlow rear disk. Clears Wilwood billet dynalite 4piston calipers. Tires are 245 and 255.

Definately wouldn't go lower if I did it again, spent a lot of time pulling after the roll.

I would have never thought I would have liked 3.5 degrees of camber until I tried it for the hell of it and because had some 15mil spacers laying around, ended up loving it. And ya I don't need to brake, although I will probably find myself road racing sometime this season, we'll see what happens.

[CKAMC]

saw this thread and thought....

17x10 -7 front A disk
18x11 -12 rear O disk

Gansta that would be... and so possible!

[kuruptR]

I was wondering if any one has ran a 18x9.5 In the front of there car with STOCK front fenders.

How did that work out for you? im considering 18x9.5 +12 or + 10 not sure if its gonna clear both sides or not

[Ca_laurier]

i have seen it done. but your going to have to run alot of camber in the front.

Yes, very nice fitment. Now just give us the specs.:naughty:

[FunctionFiRst]

Front: 18 x 9// Rear 18 x 10(low or mid disk,not sure, +6 all around)

Albert correct me if I'm wrong.

[S13-Silvia]

Quick question. If I get 225/40 in front with 18x9 and 245/35 in rear with 18x10, would it be uneven height wise?

[Ian]

It's going to be .3" shorter

Stock body, clearance roll.

^^Just need more camber :naughty:

Will the .3" be noticeable? Like will it look uneven,with the front just a little higher?

If you want them even, run 255/35. Its the same height as a 225/40. Fwiw, i run that set up on a 18x9.5 and 18x10.5

Are those meshies in your sig quach? What size and offset are they? Those are hot, and very unique, I'm jealous!

[Ian]

yeah you do, look at your signature...is the diameter of those wheels even in the double digits?

[Matej]

No, I took them off a Vespa, I hate how small they are, but they're easy to spin until I have more power. Of course I'd rather be rocking some 18x10 Works, but not with the stock KA. Hopefully soon!

[S13-Silvia]

The wheels on that white hatch with black rims are photoshoped to look bigger.

[ayuaddict]

im no expert at photoshop-spotting, but SSR does make 17inch mesh, just for the record.

[Ian]

i think they made those reverse mesh up to 18" didn't they?


And Brian rocks 17x9's on an S14 w/ stock KA and drifts just fine

[chmercer]

that car is totally photoshopped. the front and rear wheel is the same wheel. and the bolt pattern is enormous. and the lugnuts are oriented exactly the same front and rear. and.. yeah. i can tell by the pixels and from seeing quite a few photoshops in my time.

[S13-Silvia]

I guess I cheated because I saw the original picture he posted in the picture thread or somewhere and I saw his sig right underneath...Pretty nice photoshop though.

[quach]

it's a photoshop, i also blew up my exhaust.

[S13-Silvia]

Wish I would have said something about the picture thread before I said something.:duh:
