Im looking at the XXR 526 in the 17X9 size on my s13. My main question is i plan on running coilovers with these and dont want issues with hitting the coilover or fenders. I want the wheels to fit inside the fender. What offset do i need to find? also i would like to not have spacers if possible.

Use this: Custom rims, wheel tire packages for your ride - RIMSnTIRES.com (http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp)

And Stock Wheel sizes:
4 Lug Steelies: 15x6" +40mm w/ 195/60/R15
4 Lug Alloys: 15x6" +40mm w/205/60/R15

Compare that with your new ones.

my experience: the stock 350z rears wheels fit with s13 oem struts, i forget what they are...i think 225/50/17x8.5" offset of 33 or 30 someone help me on this but it does touch the inside fender when you hit a bump hard. the fronts 350z wheels were 225/55/17x8" offset was 30 or 33 again i dont remember. fronts rubbed on the oem s13 struts, im gonna assume that coilovers may clear fine or get narrower tires on front. hope this helps

Go lower offset. You'll have less clearance WITH coilovers because the rim is right next to the spring in most cases. Wider diameter than a standard strut tube. Wide tires are awesome for grip.

Just saying.....
