starion wheels

[davidae86]

16x7 16et front
16x8 16et rear...

on a S14

what do you guys think?

from what i know.. this should make it stick out... but i have about 2 degrees of neg. camber in the rear already from the sportlines...

[nokeone]

i don't think they will stick out..might come close to flush..

s14 rears have some pretty huge wells..

I almost went this route however the big wheels are really expensive...

Try looking for stock 17's off a for mustang... I believe its 17 x 8 with a nice offset... Thats what i'm looking for now ^_^

It wont stick out, especially with neg. camber. It'll actually be quite flush. It also depends on what size tires you're running.

get the 16x9 in the rear, their much sweeter, they have a decent lip :-D

yeah i saw a set of 2 on ebay yesterday, mad cheap! No one bid on them. they were 17x8

wow i'd love to find a full set of 17x8 mustang rims. that's be sick, but i need 5 lug conversion first

yes they did.

They were the rear wheels for a certain trim. I cant remember exactly, but i know for a fact that they came in 16x9. Now finding them is a completely different story... ;)

yeah..very rare from what i hear..

yes they did. any starion/conquest with the sport handling package (16x9 rear and 16x8 front wheels and 8-way factory adjustable shocks) had the wider wheels. but they are hard to come by for sure and most people want good money for them. the 16x7/16x8 combo are almost a dime a dozen though and pretty easy to get a hold of. just watch out, because they are softies. they bend at the mere thought of hitting a pothole if you have anything less than a 50 series sidewall tire on them. if they're just for drift wheels then buy up a couple pairs of 16x8 rears and beat the hell out of them.:D

on a side note, i wish i would've offered the wheels off of my conquest on here for sale. mine had a somewhat rare set of 16x7/16x8 black mesh style enkei's with polished lips on them (lip was about 2.5" in rear). those would've looked awesome on a 5 lug 240.:boink:

oh, and if anyone wants to buy some:

www.starquestrims.com has factory ones in all sizes.

5 way adjustable STOCK, wow, thats awesome

Somone needs to drift one of those

i just tried on the 16x8... i think the offset was -10.. not 10
well.. it stuck out the rear of my s14 about an inch.. i already knew it would be like that...but the more flatter 16x7 18et fits close to flush...

i dont know who is telling everyone to get offset in the 20s..
but i have a HyperRev book and for the S14 five lug.. it usually shows front wheel width to be 8 inch with a 30-38 offset
and the rear to be 9 inch with a 35-38 offset...

now.. with a 20+ offset.. i think there would be some minor fender rolling or triming required.. or some serious negative camber dialed in...

but im going to look for some "sport" starion wheels that are 16x8 in the front and 16x9 in the rear and use the eight inch for the rear... if the offset is correct...

but thanks a lot guys for the help
