I have to buy the spacers to clear my coilovers. I don't need much but since I am buying them I want to get the wheels out as far as possible without rubbing fenders.

What size should I get for the 17x7 +45mm offset wheels? Is the front the same as the rear?

Pictures would be great.

ummm, that size sucks!
Anway, maybe a 35-45mm spacer (thats HUGE!!!) maybe bigger without rolling fenders???
You'd have to get longer studs too. Its gonna take a big spacer (depending on how flush or close to the fender you want to make it) to make those flush on an S14....IMO

Suggestion... buy new wheels!

Timanator,
I didn't know they made spacers that big!! Dude your asking for some serious problems with that shit. Imagine, looking at his car with a 45mm spacer on it, HA I would laugh my ass off!!

...Then as he takes his first hard corner...everyone holds their breath....awww shit his outside wheel flew off!! how did that happen? Oh yeah the spacers.....heehaw!!

Funny stuff. I've seen some vato (say it like a Mexican) cars with some pretty big gaps in there and I love watching them navigate corners.....heh it's great.

yeah, I'm not sure it really exists. haha. But they do have bolt-on spacers which will make it safer. I'm sure you could get them custom made, but why????
Get new wheels!

I can't believe I forgot to tell him to search :doh: :smash:
