i'd say 18x7.5 but really STOCK suspension!?!? dont waste your time save up some money get some coils and roll your fenders cause if not its guaranteed to look like shit....WHEEL GAP is not WINNING lol...

Grab a tape measure and see how much room you have. On stock suspension you have a very large tolerance... You don't have to be a precise with sizes as the guys who slam their frame to the ground do.

wait what? Isn't 7.5 stock width for an S14? Do you say that because stock springs are wider than coils?

well if your not going to lower the car and using the car for the drag strip purposes you could go fairly wide my buddy has a 2jz s14 drag car his tires are pretty fucking wide

meh i would wait till you get coils. Thats what i did. Plus is your car stock? What would be the purpose of getting wide wheels for a stock car?

Don't buy retarded wheels then wonder why they fit poorly.

I thought stock S14 rims were 16x6.5 +40...for 5 lug anyway.

OP, just throw on some Z33 rims, again, if you're 5 lug, whichever you want, and call it a day.

im running 18x10 in the rear on a 265 tire, i am about 1.5 lowered, on tociko and tein springs sits pretty flush but i had to roll my fenders because it rubbed when i am on a bouncy road, just an idea for you.
