Baller wheel fitment!

[Depou]

Hey guys!

I've been looking at zilvia.net for a while now. And i'm in need of help (of some sorts)

Last year I bought a 180sx. Also, i've been reading up alot on the Koguchi Power overfenders. Well guess what, i bought some! Waited 8 months for em'! 50mm up front and 70mm in the rear

I have Work XD9 17x9.5 +17. Fitted real nice before the fenders (obvious). Now I am getting new wheels. Getting SSR SP1.

My question is, what is the most intense offset/width i can run with these overfenders! I'm looking at ~2 neg camber in the rear/front.

I did some quick calulation, and i ended up with x9.5 -20/30 up front with 235's and x12 -7 with 10mm spacer with 275's.

To prove to you guys that i'm not kidding about the fenders :P no flaming about the wheel fittment... :( Also, the car looks "high". That's b/c the fender line is higher then the stock ones. I was tucking before the overfenders. The aero + wheels are comming this winter!

Last thing, I cant slam the car to the ground, the roads here in montreal are sh*t.

why did you ask this in the wheel fitment thread... you don't need your own thread for this

[LongGrain]

you should not have bought those fenders without having aero.

your going to need some serious wheels for those lol.

i would say a 10j -20 or lower in front

12j -10 or lower in the rear

Think i havent thought of that? i'm not 1337sauce enough for that tread. If wheels arent camber'd + streched, i aint postin' in that tread :P I've read the "requirements" for that tread hehe.

Car is going to "sleep" in the comming weeks. And it's not my DD. As I said, aero is comming...

Thx for the help!

[Z33dori]

yea but you can ask your question in there and not waste bandwith with a pointless thread.

Hey those Koguchi overfenders look great! Cant wait to see what the car will look like with the aero and new wheels! What color do you plan on painting the car?

[Slow Poke]

How about you measure how much room you have between your current wheels and the fenders... That would make too much sense wouldn't it...

Since you can mount the fenders to get different widths only you are going to know what will fit.

[azndoc]

Yeah those fenders are baller.

I've always wanted them too.

I hope you got a nice aggressive aero to go with it.

Otherwise it'll look like ass.

I would suggest hitting up Logan at Aspec to ask about the wheel fitments and also purchase the wheels from him since he is a SSR dealer also.

Montreal roads arent that bad, you need wider rims.

9.5 front and 12 rear is a bit too big of a stagger for my taste. I'd at least step up that half inch to 10 in the front.

Also, talk to Logan. He can help.

Only 9.5" with a 50 mm fender??
I fit a 9.5 with like a 12 offset or something on a stock fender on the front of an s13..
You went huge with the fenders now go huge with the wheels.

Deffo dont get a 9.5 et30 as this will rub on the strut or coilover on the inside of the wheel. I have 9.5 et5 on the front with 20mm wider fenders, how wide are your fronts? Hope that helps.
