Ive searched an im still confused I have 18x9.5 wheels im tring to fit up front. I have the option to order 18x9.5 +10 and 18x9.5 +0 I have tein he's and I do not want to run over fender. I do not mind pulling the stock fender. What will it take for me to fit these on a stock fender, and not rub my coil? Is it even possible? The reason Im confused is I notice in the search I seen one car running 9.5 + 12 and hes on stock fenders pulled it looked flush, then I see other cars with 17x9.5 +20 on wide fenders and they look flush, so im alittle confused if I can acually fit these wheels. I used to have 17x9 up front +10, and they cleared my coilovers by 5 mm or so. Im also affraid the 9.5's will rub. Does any one have any experience fitting 9.5 wheels on a stock fendered s13??

fiberglass widefenders compared to pulled metal fenders are like pretty much exactly the same. you should be able to fit it just fine with proper camber and tire sizing.

I made a write up a while ago. ill post it here. it tells how to fit any size wheel on your car.

put them on, if they hit coil/brakes space them out. if they hit fender/inner fender, pull/roll or get a large hammer.

end.
