s14 base wheels + Zbrakes

[Spoolpigeon]

they do fit with a 1/4 inch spacer, but its very close. i searched for this before i bought these wheels and couldn't find if they would fit, so i figured i'd make a thread for anyone else looking for the same thing.

.25 in is about 6.5 mm. .. i'd be scared to drive on that..

[Spoolpigeon]

why is that?

[THEMkris]

how many full turns of your lug nuts did you get? you need AT LEAST 7 FULL turns just to be on the safe side. otherwise i'd be afraid of your wheels falling off.

1/4 spacer will be fine.

nothing is falling off.

congrats about the brakes.

They look close to r33 wheels, I cant really tell.

I'm assuming those are the 26mm brakes??

[Spoolpigeon]

They are the 4 lug base model S14 meshies

[genericforumname]

no, they're the semi-mesh that nissan put on a few s-14's, they look kind of like the ones they put on the kouki 180sx, I think they were stock on the kouki base models?

[S14DB]

Kouki Base and 180sx. Like the G20's but lower offset. 42 vs 48 IIRC.

Why do you need z brakes on 195 width tires?

I have the S14SE wheels on mine with 30mm and they clear easily.
