Just bought some work vsxx 18x9 +8 fronts 18x10.5 + 14 rears, I'm going to need to roll my fenders and I want a nice stretched look. What do you guys think?They're going on my s14.

225 and 235 for the stretched look...
But I would run a 245 and 255 and have a not-so-stretched look...

225 40 18 front and 245 40 18 rear. 235 40 18 on a 10.5 is really stretched and most places (any place you would probably have your vsxx's at) wouldnt do that unless you had a friend there.

225 in the front will be perfect...and only a roll will be necessary. In the rear anything from 245-265 will work, you should choose based on how much power you are going to be putting to the ground/ or if you are going to be drifting it. i have 18x9.5 +12 w 235/40/18 and it JUST BARELY tucks in to clear the rear fenders so with 18x10.5 +14 you will have to pull but you probably already know that. just figured id put in my two cents, i hope it helps.

225 on the front will not look stretched if you are using expensive tires... 215/40 will yield the stretched look, or buy cheap 225's....
for the rear, 235/40 is jazzy

yes sir rbmotoring I guess ill go with 215 40 F 235 40 R will I really need to pull the rear?
with 10.5 +14, you will need to pull the rear. or 3 to 4 degree of neg camber and you will only need a roll.

Yeah I'm probably going to have to do a negative camber in the rear w/ the roll. Hopefully the RUCA's and toe rods get here before the wheels.

it would probably help if you told us what you were running suspension and motor wise
and what you planned to do with the car

I'm going with
k sport coilovers
k sport tension rods
k sport RUCA
power trix traction rods
power trix toe rods
I'm planning to do some drifting but not on these wheels, and I have a s13 Blacktop sr.

Personally, I'd go with 215/35's on the 18x9's and 235/40's on the the 18x10.5's.

stock sr?
if it is and since you arent going drifting but want a stretched look i'd go with 225/40 F 245/40 R
you will still keep some traction but will get a decent look out of it
if you want really stretched do a 235/45 rear but i dont suggest it
but again....just my opinion
