Okay, let me first start with if you have no valid input with help, please do not post in this thread. I am not looking for the people that say this can't be done or don't do it, any work that is needed is going to be done to make this work.
Now with that said! I need some input with fitment/ wide body on my s13. I am looking for the stretch poke fitment. Below are my specs as of now. I am looking for another set of tires for more of a stretch with keeping it safe as a DD. Still need to cut the rear fenders above the body line, if anyone can do a quick line of how high I can cut side to side and up that would be great! Front Fender: 30mm Rim: 18x11 Et: -1 with 10mm spacer ( final et -11 need spacers to clear 300zx brakes) Tire: 245/35 Camber: -4 ( can't go more unless I still the coil for camber) Rear Fender: 50mm Rim:18x12.5 Et: -18 ( with 4mm spacers final -22) Tire: 285/30 Camber: -1.5 ( can't go more) Thank you for your help!

Nobody is special enough to get their own thread esepcially if it fits the criteria of posted thread. This will get locked up and I'm sure that if you're not a douche, somebody will help you out in that thread.

If you had actually done some decent research, everything you could possibly want to know about fitment and installing overs is on this forum. Do some digging. Don't fit in with the norm that has become Zilvia as of late.
Now, I wont say 18x11 wont turn, cause I ran 11jj-7 in the front on my kouki and could hit full lock. On stock pulled fenders. But it ain't gonna be fun. Wanna know if you cut the rears enough? Jack the wheel up all the way and see if it will clear.. Anything can fit. Depends on how much camber you wanna run, and how big your balls are to DD on those stretched tires. |

I agree this belongs in the wheel/tire thread. What is the point of having such huge wheels?

Once again I asked and have got nothing from the wheel/tire thread.... What's the point of a area to ask questions and not get help..? And I reposted it there with still, no real help on the fitment part of it. Also the wheels are not really big, they are 18's they are more wide, reason for that is I can still get the stretch tire look I want and also still have some major meat on them. Also for the fact that it grips like no other if I am looking to drove it with out kicking the back end out. And finally it looks bad a$$ in my opinion having major dish and a nice bubble butt Bump to anyone that knows this kind of fitment.. Thanks for the responses and keeping it on topic.

I will use the method and jack it up and see if it bottoms out on anything. I just want to make sure it's going to clear the over fender too before I install it. I ran 205 30 on a 9.75 inch rim, I have no problem DD stretched tires, I feel like Cali has some good roads, and I really try to stay away from the harsh areas! Thanks!

be careful in the front with the spacers and 40 series tire. youll fuck the srub area up and wont be able to get full lock. happened to me with my s14.
as for the over fenders you need to cut more like the pic above.and probably shave the inner lip of the overfender off and have fun paying for tires lmfao i got rid of my baller wheels because the cost of DD'ing on wide ass tires isnt worth it!

My advice to you is get the fenders on since you're pretty much committed. First and foremost, get your ride height to where you want it. Get an alignment (atleast even out the rear cambers) so you can use the wheels as a reference when you put your rear fenders on it. Then, BOW living crap out of it because you will need to. You're at the point that you either make it work or you don't.
Its moot but you shouldn't have cut the inner fender like that. Most of the time, people would cut the outer at the body line, pry it off the inner, pull the inner high up to where it meets with the outer again, weld it together and then cut the excess off. 240SX.net ? View topic - How to: Overfender Install!! As far as the fronts, you'd need more than a 30mm fenders. I still think your fronts are gonna suck fitment wise, I dont see how the hell you're not rubbing at lock unless you're 4x4ing it. I think you need a 50mm front and 70-80mm rears. |

Now for the rear I have out the over fender on with tape to see how it looks, it fits? It's close yes but if I shave that inner lip out of the over fender it looks as if it will be fine. This is with my current tire set up.. I am looking for another set up on sizing so I can run a little more stretch so I might not even need to shave the lip of the over fender. Now viewing BOWing it I don't think is needed since it looks tight but will work..? Now why do you think the front will suck fitment wise? I have seen people do 18x11 on the link that was posted here. They also had the 30mm fenders? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

OP, just based on your wheel sizes I'm thinking 80 mm rears are in your future.
Or you could bow the 50mm overs out to 80 maybe if you don't care how crazy it looked. So basically get the tires mounted on the wheels and cut the stock sheet metal out, then pull the springs out of the coilovers. Then drop the rear of the car to the max compression on the shocks. See if that's low enough for you, and then tape the over fenders on and start attaching so that they cover the wheel and fit how you like. This is where the bowing of the overs comes in. If worst comes to worst, you can always attach flares to your overs... Simple math: there's a guy in the max tire thread on 12" wide +20 offset and 335/30/18, and 50mm overs, but his car isn't that low. And he has an s13 hatch. Well you're going to poke an extra 42 mm just in negative offset and spacer, and then another 6mm from being 1/2" wider. So if he's on 50mm overs and barely fitting, you need 100mm overs for those wheels.

I'm going to take out my other car from the garage and get s13 inside and start to cut out more. I already have it cut right now but want to go higher... I will also tape the fender on and see. Right now I don't think bowing is going to be needed BUT I can be wrong. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
