What chassis is this going on? S13 or S14? Depending on the chassis will dictate how aggressive you can run up front. S13s suck for clearing wide rims up front.

s14 with 20mm fronts and 50mm rears

You can run some 10j +12 ish up front, even as low as +0 offset if you want to go low and run some camber. Stretch some 225/40-18s on them and it should be good to go.

Fronts wont clear suspension...

Breitling · 06-18-2012, 08:00 PM

Cant wait to get these rear dudes on (rebarreled)....tires just came in. 265/35/18 on an 11.5. Fronts are 18x10.

What would I be able to run up front that will clear and I won't have to be super negative camber?

Silvi · 06-18-2012, 09:33 PM

Hi,
I find an Enkei set for my s14.
The question is will it fits without touching the rear shock?
The front wheels size 18 width 10" and offset ET38.
Rear wheels 18/9 offset ET35.

Thanks!

Flip thru a couple of the pages in here and enlighten yourself real quick.

Why the fuck are you running 10j up front and 9j in the rear? Doesnt matter since neither of those sets will fit the front.

Rule of thumb...nothing wider than 8j and has an offset of +30 will clear the front suspension. Good rule to go with 9j +9 fronts, 10j +10...give or take 10mm for your own preference.

im looking to buy a Mb battle 18x9.5 5-114.3 with 225/40R18 tires ... Would it fit in a 96 silvia K's s14? Im not sure about the offset, would anybody know?

thanks.

Jesus tits...did you even read what I just posted up???

I think I've hit my quota of being in this thread for the night...

Woops

I ment 9 at front and 10 at rear

would running 225/40 on a 17x9.5 +25 all around have problems on an s13?

MeGusta.jpeg · 06-19-2012, 07:22 PM

cool. im waiting for my stance coilovers right now. from what i've read around here it the front might not clear

*fliprayzin240sx* · 06-19-2012, 07:57 PM

Worst case scenario, slap 5mm spacers to clear the fronts or make sure you pull the knuckles away from the coilovers before you bolt them down.

I'm Redline · 06-20-2012, 06:22 AM

Doesn;t that go with your recommended 17/18 x 9j +30 standard recomendation flip?
5mm spacers would not be needed with CO's with that if I read you correct

depends on how much camber you plan on running.

0 to -1 should clear with a 5m easy

Silvi · 06-20-2012, 10:48 AM

so 9" at front with ET35 will not fit on s14 ?

240dk · 06-20-2012, 12:15 PM

So I am about to order spacers for the front for my s14 and I am not sure what to order. I have searched and have not found any information on what size spacer I need. Right now the fronts do not clear the coilovers at all even with the 5mm spacer. The rears cleared with a roll and 5mm spacer. Wish I would have ordered a different width for the front but im stuck with them now. I dont mind rolling or pulling, just want it to clear suspension.

-Stock Fenders
-XXR 526 18x10.5 +20
-Tein adjustable coilovers
-20mm, 25mm, or 30mm?

Lutz Performance · 06-20-2012, 12:23 PM

How much is it not clearing?
how much room do you have towards the fender?
are you willing to remove camber?

bummer if people would use this site more like they use to, RimTuck, it would be easy to make some suggestions.

I cant really tell how much its not clearing, its hitting as soon as I put the wheel on. I am willing to remove camber, but the wheel isnt even cambered in at all. I guess I may just have to buy some spacers and hope they are the right ones.

Lutz Performance · 06-20-2012, 01:06 PM

turn the wheel to lock, then try and mount it up with the 5mm spacer. maybe try a 10 or 15 ,usually can only get those on slip on with extended wheel studs. a 20mm spacer will put you at 0, which might allow you to dial the camber back in.

edit:
here is an 18x11 0 on stock metal from the wheel fitment thread

being a half inch smaller should give you a little more play room for tire size or camber

No, stay the fuck away from anything +30 or higher. Highest I would go would be +25.

Sell the front pair and get something narrower. 10.5j is a fucking nightmare up front. You might be able to get away with something as small as 15mm.

For a reference, here are my fronts, 18x10 +22 with 15mm spacers so they're +7. They barely clear my coilovers, once in a while, my springs would spin and the rims would touch them. I'd have to spin the springs so the rims wont rub on them.

To give you the same clearance inside as me, you'd need closer to 20mm spacers but then your wheels will stick out further than mine by about 13mm.

His issue is clearing the fronts, not the rears.

25BajaOutlaw · 06-20-2012, 10:16 PM

Ok, so forgive me for the "noob" post. ive spent the past hour or 5 reading differnt wheel fit ups/ tire stretch/max rubber ect and didnt really find much info for what im wanting so ill post here..... i have a 98 SE, 300zx brakes all around, stance GR + coilovers (shit canned) and a few other misc parts. i really want to run staggred 19" Rohanna RC-5s.
fronts are 19x8.5 and come in off sets of 10MM and 35MM. 10MM would be the best fit up front correct?
Rears are 19x9.5 and come in 20MM and 40MM offsets.
so my question is what offset and tires would anyone suggest?
Thanks in advance!

your rears will fit just fine with like 3° of camber no pull needed.

I haven't ordered the fronts yet, they're gonna be 17x9's.. I've been driving around with the rears though, I had to pull the metal out proly 5mm? and I'm running 4* of camber. I need to find a fender roller and clean up my pull/roll. The only thing is I got a borderline qp dent in the passenger side with the newspaper method and now I'm scared.. I wanna get the rears to about 2* of camber though, I'm gonna be taking the car to Texas from socal so it can't burn through tires like crazy.. Oh, and if my qp does dent all the way is it something the paintless dent repair people can get out? Just wondering..

that was for the front

240dk · 06-21-2012, 08:22 AM

Thanks for your help guys, I think im gona go with 25mm spacers for the time being and either buy new front wheels and use them as drift spares or go with a widebody in the future. Such a pain lol

Best fit up front would be the 9.5 +20. But if you insist on the 8.5, lower the offset the better.

25BajaOutlaw · 06-21-2012, 11:16 PM

so 9.5 +20 on all corners would be your recomndation? what tire size ?
thanks for your help.
