HELP with 19 inch wheels offset for widebody S14

[rlvq35de]

Can someone help me decide on the correct offset for my car

S14 20 mm wide front fenders 50 mm wide rear fenders
fully adjustable suspension, and nismo coilovers

I want to put 19X9 in front
an d 19X 10.5 in the rear

Going with sevas r77

http://http://www.wheelsdirectonline.com/sevasforged/gallery/25.jpg

I know someone can help, ive read tons of posts, everyone has different ideas

im thinking 25 mm in the fron
33 in the rear

[motorsnail]

There is a...........Sure they will fit...:sadwavey:

[Matej]

More like -25 front and -33 rear.

[LA_phantom_240]

Seriously.lol.

[rlvq35de]

More like -25 front and -33 rear.

how so?

I have a set of new nismo lmgt4 19X9.5 with a 30mm offset and they fit almost perfect, so going negative seems all wrong

[SimpleSexy180]

because that offset is high as fuck. your wheels will be in the shadows.

[Flybert]

It depends on the tires you're running and the camber. Remember that certain brands run wider as well.

[A Spec Products]

50mm rears leave you TONS of outer position room

Like throwin a hot dog down a hallway

I'd say if you want to do a 10.5 in the rear a +33 is too high....at least offset in the low teens, if not lower

As far as the fronts go, I'd go at least +15 or less....single digit offsets would be better

[jackal264]

use a wheel offset calculator.

the work cr kais fit really nice in the rear of a stock s14. they are 18x9.5 +12

you then want to run a 10.5

if you use an offset calculator and get the outer lip to be 50mm out more then the cr kais you would need a 10.5 -25

offset calculators are a wheel hores best friend

http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp


edit: and i did ur fronts to

cr kais with the 18x9.5 +12 fit in s14 front with a roll so say you would need a 9.5 +17 with no roll

so for a 9 inch with 20mm over fenders you would need a -9 offset with no roll or a -14 with a roll



also all these offsets are for super flushness. imo go flush or go home

[smelly240]

ur gonna roll a fiberglass fender?

[jackal264]

obviously not but you can easily trim away the inner lip. thats what i did. really easy and gets you another 7-10mm of space.

[rlvq35de]

its makes no sense, any lower offset than a 33 in the rear with a 10.5 wide rim will hit the coilovers, so how can i fit a lower offset. Lowest ive seen with a tire that wide is 31mm.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Use the wheel offset calculator.

It tells you that it will move AWAY from the strut.

You want to go lower.

Listen to the negative offsets the guy above provided you with.

If you can't figure out rims...please educate yourself...on the offset calculator o rhte wheel whore thread.

9.5+12s in the front are a fingertip distance away from coilover. The lower you go, the mo' clearance.

First of all where do you mention what size tire that you plan on using?

What stance are you going for?

What alignment settings do you plan on running?

Do you think a higher number is a "lower offset"? You do realize that negative is opposite of postive which makes it "lower" than your positive numbers? This is a simple case... at the very minimum IF you're going for the flush/semi-flush with stretching tires ie 245 on a 10.5" wheel in the rear just think of it like this (going off of stuff I've run):

19x10.5 +26mm fits flush on stock flat rolled rear fender with about -3 deg camber and a 245/35/19 stretched on it. You've got 50mm to move the wheel out so at a minimum you'll want to use a -24mm 10.5" wheel it's all simple math.

19x9 +6mm is the equivalent to a 19.9.5 +12mm that fits flush up front with about -3 deg camber and a 225/40/18 stretched on it. For your 9" wheel you'll probably want to run a 215 but this all depends on the look you want... again push it out in the positive direction 20mm yielding a -14mm 9" wheel at a minimum.

This all goes out the door if you want to use less camber and more tire meat of course but you should get the picture... plus you've got the wheel offset calculator etc to help you.

BTW, 19 up front is kinda wack... but everyone has different taste.

best advice so far, thanks.

I will run whatever alignment it takes to tuck everthing in flush, I do not want to go for a "streched tire" look. Not my thing. it just seemed that the nismo wheel stuck out enough to not look sunk in, however, i didnt have a tire on it, nor did i load up the suspension to c, so.

I will post pictures up tomorrow off the car, it will be painted viper blue tomorrow morning, so

[rlvq35de]

negative offset will give me a fatter lip too?

[fliprayzin240sx]

Depends on the rim. Some rims have different faces to work for certain applications. Some face, to clear big brakes, some to have as much lip as possible. The rim you pick looks like just another generic company. I dont think they would have the size you would need.

Also, I got a question, those "50mm" fenders already installed on the car? Cuz if you do, just cuz they're 50mm, doesnt mean they do have 50mms. Depending on how you installed it, It could have flex either way. You will have to take some measurements to see how much room you physically have.

If you havent installed it, my suggestion then is get the rims and tires first. Slapped those on, then get the rears installed to fit the rim setup perfectly. If your setup is still sunken a bit, they can bow the fenders IN to make it flush or vice versa, bowing the fenders out will give you more room.

[yokotas13]

he says Selvas are a high end forged wheel..

yeah whatever

[fliprayzin240sx]

Forged??? Shiet forget that then homeslice, doubt they'd have anything less than +30mm offset.

[rlvq35de]

he says Selvas are a high end forged wheel..

yeah whatever


sevas, spell it right

who said the are high end wheels? Not me

I wass told by the company the can make any offset i want

The overfenders are installed, the car is being painted tomorrow, we may even have more than 50mm actually, we actually cut the fenders, pulled them out with the framed machine, welded them seamed sealed the inside, and undercoated it, then installed overfenders

[yokotas13]

so you did it how your supposed to!!

Good job!

get some real wheels.
off brand wheels are no good

give me an example , i have work miesters also, they good enough for you? Oh wait, its not your car so beat it. Btw nice rain gutter exhuast

[GSXRJJordan]

Sevas aren't really offbrand Grant... I mean they're not supa-JDM-tyte like what you'd jizz over, but they're a "legit" wheel IMO, aka not made in someone else's factory/knock-off/etc.

RLVQ, I'm glad you're doing your homework here. I'd hate to see proper bodywork be ruined by nice wheels sitting in front of ebay spacers lol. Use the calculator and see what specs other people have to get an idea for how much camber/etc. Ideally you get the wheels first and do the body to fit em, but you can always fudge a little with camber/spacers.

[yokotas13]

my car > your car

regardless, meisters would be great, or anything good...varianza T3 whatever it is would be nice, maybe some rezax

K so like I said, its molded in already, us telling you what offset would be irrelevant. You need to take measurements and decide to figure out what you need. Also, you need to let us know what size tires your planning on running too.

you need to do it in this order

i run 18x9 +0 on stock fender. i have some rubbage. 18x9+16 with -2.5 degrees of camber fits perfect in the front. 18x10+18 in the rear works well too with some pull. 225 front 245 rear..

this is my car, 225/40 (should of gone 225/35 with 595 federals though I won't be rocking federals again on these wheels....) and 245/40 on 18x9+0 18x10+10. i would seriously just check out the wheel fitment whore thread.....

If you like that style, you should look into the Work Varianza T1S

You can go custom widths, offsets, etc

http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/products/wheel_detail.php?id=ITEM&Brand_id=4&Item_id=18

Not sure how much the Sevas are, but the Varianza are only around $600 something MSRP per wheel, which is very affordable in comparison to a lot of the other brands out there with similar sizing and quality

[hotrodv]

Just my opinion but you have to learn that "manufacturer's reccomendation" are always wrong! take a look at the rays reccomendetion for s14, something around 8" +35!!! ridicolous! they gie you size that can go inside the wheel wheels without problem not for have a perfect fitment and perfect fitment of wheels are the difference from a fuckin nice car and a ugly one..

Logan,

Don't worry about it. He won't budge out of the mentality he has.

Let him measure rotor to fender.

It's all good.

Subtract at least 10mm from whatever they recommend.

[CleanS14]

Dude... 17mm is mad GAY on a 50mm rear over even if you run non-stretch tire

[rlvq35de]

those works are nice. Considering the fact that everycar ive seen them size rims for are crazy flush, i think the owner of sevas knows what he's talking about.

slidin240, thanks for being ann asshole for no apparent reason. Im looking for ideas, input, etc. Telling me me to pay attention as if im not, is a dick move. Go lurk another post jerk off.

a spec products, thanks for your insight so far.

Im a parts and service director of a nissan dealership. I have extensive car knowledge, however I dont have a clue as to rim offsets, and what works, etc. That's why I come to a forum to ask, and learn. Not to be bashed about asking a fucking question, we all had to learn at somepoint,.

[rlvq35de]

oh, im getting the sevas for 2300

[rlvq35de]

well, he said that off the top of his head
Once he gets my measurements, and he can figure out the best offset so we can run a deep 4-5 inch lip.

if i could get the works for around that price, i might be interested too

ANd what is so bad about an S15 face, i love the headlights, how could you not? I have and s13, and another s14 i can appreciate the fronts of them two.

Go dummmb dumbm dumb

[skithesteel]

well, he said that off the top of his head
Once he gets my measurements, and he can figure out the best offset so we can run a deep 4-5 inch lip.

I don't understand why you keep mentioning fairly specific lip depths for wheel fitment. Every wheel is going to have a different face design, all with different lips.

Don't aim for a certain lip depth and figure the offset from there, find the width and offset that will fill in your fenders the best and enjoy wheel fitment that doesn't look like shit.

Here I'll do some quick measurements for you based on the fitment in relation to the fender on that black stock fender'd Zenki. Since your rears are 10.5" instead of 10", you'd need to add about 7mm offset to the +26mm that was mentioned it was, putting you at +33mm. Now subtract the 50mm your overfenders are gonna add and you're at -17mm. BTW this is rough and off the top of my head, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Compare that to the +38 you mentioned in your first post and you can see why every jumped at you and said it will look like shit.

Now since you're so concerned about your lip size, if there was a wheel whose face was completely flat and the lip started from there, you'd have 1/2 of the 10.5", or 5.25", plus the -17mm of offset for a litte over .5", giving you about 5.75"+ of lip, minus the thickness of the wheel face.

Again, this is with a hypothetical wheel with hypothetical fitment and not paying any attention to tires, but it's not difficult to figure out if you use logic and just think about it. Find a car with the fitment you want and just do the same math for that specific application.

Your bodyshop guy can thank me with Paypal. :)

im not basing of lip size. I want flush, the lips size isnt an issue at all

well once i have it figured out Ill tell you what the offset are gonna be

I can tell you this, from the rotor to the edge of fender i got 5 and a quarter inch? and in the front 3 and 3/4 of and inch

Thats the measurement they wanted

shit i had no idea bout that, better recheck tomorow

[fliprayzin240sx]

Also, how even are the measurements? Its hard to get over fenders put on and match both sides without nothing to reference on. Thats why its always recommended to get the rims first so you can install the over fenders to be flush to the wheels/tires. Also, listen to CleanS14, hes done this shiet long enough to know what he's talking about. You are honestly looking at negative offsets for the rears.

Stock S14 fenders with roll and slight pull can be had with 9j +9 front and 10j +10 rears (easy and simple numbers to remember). You add a 20mm fender in the front, you can go 9j -10 hypothetically with simple math. Rears the same way, you add 50mm fenders (assuming that they were installed properly to 50mm) you can run 10j -30 offset if you want to. Again those numbers are good on paper but probably wont work.

Then you still gotta put into consideration the suspension geometry when its loaded. Ride height, camber, etc becomes a factor when you start measuring shiet down to mm's.

[unwed_transient]

is this sevas guy anywhere near you?

i would suggest you try to get him to actually mount something there instead of essentially eyeballing it with measurements. this way you could get a better idea of what will work.

[Slidin240Wayz]

Keep telling him -20, -30, he'll listen.

[UfoZ8myCow]

Why is everybody jockin so much on molding in widebody fenders????

Not everybody is planning on tagging a wall with their car and thus not everybody wants some janky rivets holding their damn car together. Im pretty sure nobody has anything against that silver kouki posted up there...

[CKAMC]

You should really listen to Logan(aspec), he's been doing this for longer than most of us here have owned 240's (except for old man norm)

Jay(clean14) has had a long going record of having hella flush wheels on the last two s14's he had owned, the silver ones in modified and his old black zenki

s15 front just belongs on a s15... PEROID

so far you have ignored all the people who have owned s14's.... you really are not listening your just come off with the aura of "hey guys look at me, i think this is right and wont listen to anyone else"

WE DO NEED TO KNOW WTF TIRE SIZE YOU WANT TO RUN, because it does play a role in wheel fitment

I don't know, Hella Flush has gone soft, look what they've been approving lately, it's sad.

Okay, that's getting better

A 11" with a +0 offset is equivalent to a 10.5 -4

On paper (no counting ride height/camber/tire size) that seems ok

I don't know, Hella Flush has gone soft, look what they've been approving lately, it's sad.


First car is RJ Devera's. Sick ballin, don't hate cause you can't afford. CLS is one of my favorite cars....the lines on the body are just....amazing.

2nd car is Face 2 (or 3) on a Subaru. By Subaru standards that's flush.

But yeah the 3rd one not too sure what's up with that.

well ride height, well everything is adjustable, soo

im thinkin a 315 for size tire in the rear ? opnions?

When I say ride height

At different ride heights, the car will have different resulting wheel positions, based off camber settings

i.e if you are 4x4 height, low offset wheels will stick out, and if you are slammed, the wheels will tuck in

So if you don't measure at the point of loaded suspension and the ride height you are going to run, you could be off, especially when 10-20mm makes a difference in looks and position

At certain heights, even if you have adjustable arms, sometimes you max out adjustment, etc

And 315 in the rear I think is just not ideal at all

Regardless of how much power you have or will have, 315's are just, I dunno

I'd say at most you should run a 285, that's just me

Run 315's just for bragging in the parking lot

But $$$ wise and functionality I think you'll just be wasting unecessary tire

[rlvq35de]

tires are at least cheaper with my wholesale discount. I think 285 are prolly more reasonable though. Car is around 375 hp

[yokotas13]

285 is overkill for 375

[rlvq35de]

285 is overkill for 375

for a street car

[CKAMC]

for a street car

yeah that much power should see a 255 or a 265 at max for the rear.

[DOOK]

but he's not going for a stretch look either, he already stated that.

[fliprayzin240sx]

See first how much room you have before you decide on the tires. Once you get the rim, install one, jack up the suspension so the wheel will push into the wheel well, if you got room for 315s, go for it. I say 275s will be more than enough.

[EDacIouSX]

315s are humungo

255/35 is the size id use
