So I'm about to buy a set of 17x9 +22 for an s13 hatch. I have z32 30mm brake caliper and KTS coilover. I'm wondering if I will run into fitment problem or not, like rubbing against coilover or not able to clear caliper. Also, will I have to roll fender if I want to run 235 tires? Please comment.

Guy on 240sxforums did a build running those exact sizes I believe with z32 brakes and coilovers. Didn't rub against coilovers and they fit over the brakes. You will need to have your fenders rolled all around and pulled in the rear I believe if you don't want to rub. Also, I remember him saying he was running 3* camber in the rear, but he was running wider tires too.

With 235's on there...it'll be plug and play.

I assume you mean 235/40-17's...which are smaller-than-stock diameter, so it really helps in the fitment department.

i'm running 17x9 +20's with 235/40's in the front and have plenty of coilover clearance. brake clearance has more to do with wheel design than offset but those should be fine.

^^^ RPF1's have great brake clearance...no worries there.

+1. RPF1's have some big clearance. Should fit fine. You will probably need at least a roll if you plan on running 235's up front with those...

I have stock lug, so if I put on wider rim such as 8-9in do I need extended lug? or can I still use stock lug? Thanks guy for all the help, please keep it coming.

Have any of you guy tried greddy gravity gullflame wheel? I'm debating between those and RPF1
