First of all, will 14's even clear the brakes? And secondly, how much will the zero offset stick out. These are the wheels I am looking at now..... Konig Rewinds.

14x7 13.3 lbs 0 offset

The suspension I plan on using is Eibach Sport lines, KYB AGX's, and running the 180sx brakes if I can. This is for an S13 btw. Thanks!

NO!!

1) wont clear z brakes (15s barely do depending wheel design-i have 15s i have z brakes not a lot of spacel eft and definately no room for 14s)

2) 14s belong on 510s, AE86 NOT on s13s/s14s. looks STUPID funny
here's some math=small wheels+huge sidewall+heavy car+windy road=huge problems.

stick with 15s MINIMUM

0 offse sticks out about 3/4 to 1 inch or more depend on tire choice

I just saw some pics on freshalloy of some cars running 0 offsets, didn't strike me at all. Thanks for saving me some cash and some headaches.
