Picked up a gangsta set of epsilons

[rancid240]

Yah, good conditions, 3.5" mirror lip, 16x9 zero offset, switchable to -15 (they even have a hole on each lip for a valve stem). I am rolling on 17x9 +22 RP01s for now, and am debating whether or not to switch, since I will need to go widebody (overfenders). Also does anybody know how much spacer they used to clear epsilon + 26mms?? I measured about 20mm worth of hub on the epsilons, but about 30mm to clear calipers...

Yeah I dont know but I'm pretty sure I hate your ass

[wanganwonder]

i am getting some 16x9 0-ish wheels as well, but i don't think you or i will need widebody. camber + pull should be ok.

[SilviaDriver]

wat wheels are u picking upthats16x9 +0 wangan?

ive been looking for some 16s that are wide and really low offset for a while. tires are cheaper

[Chernobyl]

I've had some 16x9 +15 aez radons for over a year now. Low offset 16's kick ass.

[someguy_240]

damn they are nice, where can u find really low offset 16's like those?

i only know summit racing where they sell those steel wheels from cragar.. any help?

[p11driver]

damn i knew you were gona get em. lookin hot.

[infinitexsound]

gangsta wheels...tight.... wide body to fit wheels gay...... dope find tho...

[kazuo]

Epsilons are fucking retarded hot.

Good shit, make sure you post pics once they're on your car!

[OptionZero]

no body really makes low offset 16's, from what i've seen they're usually either meshies/old school, or built for trucks

[sideview_180sx]

just pull the fenders and slam that bish haha nice wheels ::thumbsup::

^ im with himm roll and pull and youll be GOLDEN

I say flip the spokes and get some over fenders.

I say flip the spokes and get some over fenders.

I was thinking of doing that with some simple flares, but only flipping the rears to match up with the fronts (since I'm 99% sure to need a spacer)

[rancid240]

Ok, so I did some real measuring on the car and the wheels. Turns out the offset is +5, and if i switch the face around it will turn to -30mm.

For z32 clearance, I am estimating you need about 30mm of hub (assuming a flat spoke, 26mm calipers), and the epsilons have about 20mm of hub. So I am going to go with a 15mm (wish I could do 10, but it will be VERY close) spacer up front, making it a 16x9 -10mm front (I have s14 LCAs so make that a -20mm), and a 16x9 +5 rear. I am guessing I would need a 25mm spacer for rear just for looks sake (fronts out farther then rear =/)

So the real question is a pull realistic? I am assuming Ill need 30mm extra fender clearance from each pull, front and rear. If it is realistic I will go that route, as long as its cheaper than flares ($350 + labor/paint)
EDIT: 205/55 16s, so a med bit of stretch

[revat619]

Nope, too much work. Now sell them to me. :D

Seriously though, a 30mm pull for the REAR isnt that bad. Its a little over an inch. For the fronts though, i'd suggest wide fenders or bolt on fender flares (whatever your preferrence). IMO, pulling the fronts doesnt look that nice and structurally (sp?) i dont think it would be a good idea to pull them that much.

thats a 16x7 +0 with fully maxed JIC camber plates. add like 35mm more, and imagine how much of a pull youre gonna need up front.

your JICs are the suck. I had 15x7.5 -5 SSRs on my car on silk roads, camber bracket maxed out, but camber plate untouched.

Ive got 16x9 +0s of my own to fit
