Wondering what everyone thought on this setup:
S14 - Coilovers with a mild drop.
Varrstoens 2.2.1 - 18x9.5 +12 225/40/18 (Front)
18.10.5 +15 245/40/18 (Rear)

Would any fender work be needed? I know camber places a part, how much camber do you think I would need? Would there by any understeer? Thanks.

I amost have that same set up and I only needed to roll the rear fenders a lil bit. I have a set of gramlights 57DR 18x9.5" w225/40/18 & 18x10.5" w235/40/18 +12 offset all around.

hello, I put on my nissan s14a, XXR wheels are about 527 in 18x8.75 which should have offset to fit me well (I offer offset 20 and 35) thanks

+20 offset

You could run a 15mm spacer on top of that depending on your tire sizes.

I put 225/40, did not understand what de15mm spacer, thanks

8.75 +20 with a 15mm spacer = 8.75 +5

That should fit your S14A fine with 225/40s. You just need to roll your fenders (flatten the fender lip).

and with 8.75 +5, I would stay at the edge of the fender?

Guy in there running the 9.75 +15 (effective) which is almost the same as your setup with 15mm spacers 8.75 +5 (effective)
As far as outer clearance anyway.

still trying to figure out the setup. have searched google this thread and fitment whore threads.

15x8 +15/+20/+40 225/60/15

anyone know if they will fit?

Anyone running 9.5-10j up front with max angle knuckles? I'm looking to do that but I'm not sure if I'm going to run into clearance issues w lca or tie rods. My knuckles aren't installed yet so I can't really measure or get a sense of how it will work out.
Thanks

need some help, i wanna run 17x9 on stock body with coilovers. what offset should i run?

I protrudes from the front
fenders with 8.75 +5?

5 posts up is a link to exactly what it will look like. Pictured is 9.75 +15 which will have almost the same outside look as what you're looking to run.

Just bought a set if Rims 17x9 +15
Wat tires are, perfect for me to put,on my S13
Going to drop my ride on coils soon want to run least amount of camber & will I have to roll my fenders

Just bought set of wheels and i dont know which tyre profile will be the best.

The rear wheel are 18X10 tyre width will be 245
Front ones are 18X9 will be also 245

What profile is recommended?
Thanks!

I really like how my 215/40s fit on my 9's. There's only a little wheel bite at full lock and under spring compression.

IMO it will look a little funny with more stretch in the rear. If I were doing 245's in the rear I would do a 235 in the fronts both being 35 for the profile. The stretch would be even for the most part and a 40 is just too tall again just my opinion. Also depends on what chassis you have.

ok,thanks :)

I have questions about why I put a leave with offset spacers to +5.?, and what happens if I leave +10? are deep inside?, or touch with coilovers? sorry for asking much about it, thanks

im a noob to wheel fitment so bare with me. i got eibach sport lines with gr-2's. will this wheel tire combo fit flush, fronts 17x8 +25 235/40 rears 17x10 +12 275/40. i also have +50 over fenders.

Simply put, no. The rears would sit flush on a stock body s14 with a roll/pull, and on the rear of an s13 with pull and lots of camber.

With 50mm overs, the rear will need spacers most likely, and you will have miles of space on the front. I'm not sure you can get spacers big enough to make the front flush with 50mm overs.


Which at the end of the day won't matter since you aren't low enough to have any kind of fitment anyway.

cool. thx for the help.

I dont think that the difference between 10 and 9 will be so visible.
So if i choose profile 40 with 245, when the tyre stretch the profile will be little lower?
I bought them with 285/45 the car looks like a truck with those tyres :cry:

I've read through this whole thread just want some reassurance before I purchase.

Current setup:
http://i.imgur.com/DO3Pn.jpg
16x8 (+10 or +20 not sure..) all around 195/50 ziexs

Wanted:
17x9 +12 up front running a 215/40
17x9.5 +12 in rear, should I run a 215/40 or a 215/45?

As you can see car has roll and slight pull, runs quite a bit of camber as well. Just want to make sure everything will fit fine, and the car is my daily.

Ok insted of trying to Explain, it i did this in Paint, here is the thing... i am running the 20mm spacer on the 9 wide wheel so i clears the coils so i need at least the same back spacing on the 10 wide wheel... so what size spacer would i need?https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...22568025_n.jpg

Depending on what kind of fitment you're looking for, all of what you said will fit. But it depends on how you want it to fit.

You could run a 45 series but that wouldn't be cool-looking now would it? Plus for a daily, I would be a tad bit more confident going a 225/235 out in the rear.

Input the numbers using the effective offset aka with the spacers on.

9" +18 (20mm spacers)
10" +18 (20mm spacers)

See the difference & compensate with new spacers.

Now go and do the math.

That is correct. When the tire stretches, the lower profile will be even lower when stretched. I would go with a 35 but thats just my preference.

hey i want to buy xxr 527's and i want 17x8.25 [+25mm] in the front.. it honestly looks like anything bigger than stock will rub the springs..but i want to know if it will or not.. also in the back i want 17x9.75 [+25mm] . i would want 18's.. but unless i do a 5 lug swap they dont make the 527's in 5 lug with 18".

Are you on stock suspension? What chassis do you have? If s13 this is fitment with the 9.75's with a 5mm spacer all around. Will require the spacer in the front to clear coilovers but i used all around because i hate when i see the front sticking out way further with too much camber like a lot of guys on here do. Looks like ass to me.
