so i just got a 92 s13 recently and i am looking into putting some decent stance wheels and tires on it. I like the staggered xxr 5 star looking wheels they have on ebay. the front is a 7.5 and the rears are 9s. i just want to know how these will fit on the s13. it is slightly lowered on tein lowering springs so theres still a decent tire gap. let me know what you guys think!

Yeah there is a whole thread close to the top specifically for wheel fitment questions. You have some research to do. Get to it.

A big factor is the offset. A 17x9 with a +12 offset is going to fit a lot different than a 17x9 +40 offset. Just search and search until you find someone with similar dimensions.

7.5 is too small for the front. 9 is ok for the back, but 10 would suit better for stance and tire sizes, also try to get wheel offsets +20 or lower.

go 17x9 all around is the best way, some spacers would be nice to get stance look (like 25 30 35mm spacer). i got 16x8+-0 no issues.

How about you start looking thru the wheel fitment thread or go to rimtuck.com, check out what spec wheels people are running and make a decision for yourself?

Just a thought but you could buy nice wheels instead of shitty cast china wheels. Oh shit, they might even be offered in sizes and offsets that don't require the use of shitty wheel spacers. Also, I hate you.
