wheels, 15x8 with a -27 offset

[drft_n_s13]

:aw: does anyone know how these would fit on a coupe? i kno it sounds hella crazy but im debating on if i should get them or not

[fliprayzin240sx]

You can make em fit...

[DreamN]

Damn I thought my 15x8 -10s were decent, but a -27! Seriously, make that shit fit! That would look sick as fuck on a coupe.

[ayuaddict]

yupp they fit just fine.

had those same sizes on a fastback and a MX73

[DreamN]

^ roll and pull or nothing needed?

[racepar1]

For sure rolled lips and stretched tires.

[drft_n_s13]

yupp they fit just fine.

hmm... did u roll, pull, widebody???

hell yea, ive decided to make my car look as gangster as possible sliding and pretty much just doin anything

[fliprayzin240sx]

You'll definitely need a pull and camber. Quick calculation in my head, this should sit out equivalent to a 10j +0.

[kouki3015]

hmm... did u roll, pull, widebody???

he said he had it on his mx73 cressida. totally different car and fits different size and offset wheels than s13. for x8-27, you for sure will have to roll,pull,stretch tires,camber,flare,and/or widebody in either combination or whatever floats your boat.

he also said on a fastback... and yea im assuming i'll need some kind of roll or widebody... but thanx

[ayuaddict]

fastback and a MX73

i think its like, rolled/pulled, camber, 195/50s. something like that.

but like, if you already have the wheels, stick some 195s on there and just test fit it and make adjustments from there. there is no magic combination of ingredients that make for perfect fitment of 15x8 -27 on S13 that can be attained from posting this up on the internet or anything like that.

^ that looks pretty freakin' beefy. I dig. I would never go that aggressive, but that is nice. what wheels are those and is that 15x8 -4X all around or just the rears? Seems like it might be all around :eek:

What size tires are those btw? also are those dmax or origin tails? they look nice smoked.

[nismo racer]

dang that looks sick. i need a fender roller so i can slam mine.

[93'240sx]

ill post up pics later, i dont have the program on my computer to upload the pics from my camera

[MikeisNissan]

damn those wheels are sick! nice car!

[240esux]

yeah, same size all around. i used a wooden bat, no fender roller. i dunno who make those wheels, sorry bro.
the tails are just ebay ones that i smoked with model car paint.
thanks for the feed back:wiggle:

oh yeah, tires are 195/50's

[drft_n_s13]

Simple way to decide:

1. Do the wheels look dope? If yes, proceed to #2.

2. Make the car fit them.

[g-via]

for some reason i would like to see 195's on the rear....and dropped down just a tad more.....

[93'240sx]

id like it to be lower to, but i already drag my exhaust everywhere i go, and its the stock exhaust! lol

That looks sick... Probably some of the fattest lips Iv seen on stock quarters.

seems like no one ever knows the brand/model of these the smaller fat lipped wheels...hmm

[bo2o]

just to let you know with 15 inch wheels you need your car to be low!
and it will b ultra low.
you will not clear speed bumps ever again.
you cant play off 15 inch wheels with a kit.

first are these wheels reallie worth it? it better be hella cheap.
those wheels sound like there for a 280z or 86 corolla.

15x9,5 -20

Some old school hammers. Sick wheels. I used to love seeing those on Bonneville SSEi's.

They look great on your 240. I've tried finding some locally, but they are usually not the right bolt pattern or are the weak size ones.

[93'240sx]

^thanks! i love em! yea they werent the right lug pattern either but i had them redrilled at my work

[berz]

thats too ill

[theronin]

that looks great man. nice find.

[thestreetzking]

man.. i been looking like holy hell for new wheels. 15x8 with a good offset and have nothing.. i was planning on the eagle alloy 15x8-30 but they became discontinued.. i dont want 1000 ssr's so can someone help me find a 15x8 with a - offset..

[SW20Racer]

axis...rota...the list goes on. knockoff companies are jumping all over this -offest/huge lip trend.

hell even the op is talking about some axis rims that have been posted here several times in the past few days...the four spoke ones...

its not discontinue you can still buy them.

[thestreetzking]

i called three people and they said 4x4.5 15x8-30 were discontinued..

and axis uses 4x100 and rota doesnt have anything with good offsets, and sport max has the 002s which are +0.. closest thing but then again there knockoff..

lol! oh yeah, most you guys need 4x114.3! i totally blanked out there. redrill your hubs. all the real men do it.

I googled that really quick to see and a lot of people are questioning strength issues? you think redrilling to 5x114.3 would work or would you be concerned

[BustedS13]

1. Do the wheels look dope? If yes, proceed to #2.

2. Make the car fit them.

correction. "is them shits bangin" is the correct first step

[SW20Racer]

I googled that really quick to see and a lot of people are questioning strength issues? you think redrilling to 5x114.3 would work or would you be concerned

i dunno, i would do it personally, considering i know of cars who did it 3-7+ years ago and they're still fine after daily diving (and 1 truck who offroads ALOT) there are some members here that have done it too. maybe one of them will chime in.

its kind of like how people start yelling about how widening steel wheels by cutting+welding is sooo super unsafe. i never had a problem with it on the mr2... and i would like to do it again for my current car(S) but i cant find anyone around here to do it

[thestreetzking]

I know redrilling rotors is done a lot and i wouldnt be to concerned with that but the hubs just kinda sound like they will be weakend cause they arent to big, i might hit up a junkyard for some cheap hubs and give it a try

[SW20Racer]

ive seen "universal" disk brakes that were drilled for 4x114.3 and 4x100 as well i dunno if that pertains to anything, but i thought i'd throw it out there...

go to town on some junkyard hubs that are still useable and let us know how it goes. if it goes to shit, just throw your regular hubs back on and get these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/WHEEL-ADAPTERS-SPACERS-4X100-to-4X114-3-TOYOTA-1-5_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ42614QQihZ014QQitemZ3 30231676273QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW and switch the studs to the proper holes (might need some body work with an effective -52 offset):faint:

[thestreetzking]

BINGO, found it in the diy thread. awesome.. gonna do this soon

[princequeeley]

Personally I would love 15s on my two tone it's just hard to find legit wheels in that size and with very nice width
