Need help on some wheel fitment please

[Tkwjh07]

So i Currently bought some rims with tires...back fits fine but the fronts i am having issue clearing the coilovers.

Wheels are XXR 527 17x9.75 +25, I want to know how big of a spacer to clear those coils....Its also on a 4lug s13

Tire size...fronts are 225/40 rears are 245/40

from all the fitment threads i have read a 10mm would most likely be your best bid.

[chuki.s13.coupe.]

10mm for sure will clear but I've heard some say that a 5mm slip on spacer did the job. It also depends on your coils.

Im on the wheel fitment thread trying to get some ideas of how the other guys running their setup

[joeapple8]

17x9.5 +12 would be the best bet to clear the coils. You're better off getting extended studs and running 15mm

Start at page 21 and go from there.

basically from all the things i have read/seen if you can get your offset in the range of +15 to +18 you should be fine with most coils. I could be wrong, but so far that is what it seems like.

[trainkiller]

ooh yeah just go with a 5mm then because even with that it seems to poke a shit ton

Do 10mm spacer. I have 17x10.5+20 in the front. Added a 8mm spacer and it BARELY cleared. Wheel got caught on the coilover on the first day. Added a 15mm spacer instead and it was perfect.

5mm spacers, cheap and gets the job done

[ka24debt]

I have these wheels and they suck ass.

30mm spacer and 215/45 as a temp.

you have 30 on front and back too?

[ka24debt]

Not sure on camber but the front is a 235/40 w one of those slip on autozone spacers.. fits real nice. I'm gonna run 235/40 and run a 15mm in the rear

So i got some H&R spacer and exteded stud on the way...15mm, cant wait.

^ that's crazy I have 17x9 +24 set up and they clear me stance coils just fine.

[Newtypex]

Tighten the lugs down tell the wheel is tight against the coil. Measure the gap between the wheel and rotor. Add 5 mm to it and that's your spacer. I'm running Bbs Lm's 18x10 +36 rear and 18x9 +28 front. 265/35 and 235/35. Stock body with oem jdm aero. Check my build thread for pics

[Newtypex]

You could also use fender washers on three of the lugs. Add washers until the lugs are tighten down and wheel spins freely. Measure the width of number of washers used

I haven't read all the replies but in order to clear my pbm coils in the front I needed a 15mm spacer. And I have some s13 extended studs for the front and hubcentric 10mm spacers for sale

[Bushido]

minimum size to clear on part shop max coils is 9.5+15... on s13.
