i found some mad jdm tyte weds rims for the jdmheaven roller
19x9.5j +18 5H 114.3 235-35-19
19x10.5j +18 5H 114.3 265-35-19

A buddy of mine has 18x11 in the rear, and he has 275 tires. So im sure 265's on a 10x5 wide tire will be ok. Im no expert on tires but thats just my guess

With the correct amount of brute force, you can make anything fit.

S13 or S14?
If it's a S13 - Forget about it. Unless your car is the most savage 240sx in the Western Hemisphere you will not be able to pull off 19s. It will look utterly fucking ridiculous.
If it's a S14 - Depends, but more than likely you should still forget about it. With the right stance and body kit (among other things) you could probably pull off 19s in the rear and 18s up front. Your car will have to be pretty damn crazy to make it work though.
You can make any wheel fit with relatively little effort, but making it look good will take A LOT of hard work and money.

the car is a 95 s14 w/ kouki front and gp sports type r kit...
shes totally willing to be rolled and pulled and shaved in the fenders, but no wide body overfenders hopefully
if they fit, look out! ;)

You can't fit them. I can. Give them to me.
j/k
Roll/pull the fenders and put 'em on with all the camber you can muster. If they don't fit, go widebody. No biggie.

with 265's on 10.5 and a +18 et you'll definately need to pull slightly...
for the billionth time, iEATrice has 19x10.5 +26 235-35-19's on his S14 with rolled fenders and is as flush to the fender as it can get

to compensate for the $$ in 19" tires you would have you get like 205/40/19. major tire stretch....DO IT!! do it anyway man, those wheels are drop dead fucking gorgeous.

the diameter of the rear tire as almost an inch and a half larger so it's going to mess up your speedo as well as be harder to fit, but it's not impossible. we can fit that shit in there, don't worry. make sure they fit over Z brakes.

Are there any pictures online of his car with that setup?
IMO 19s all around will look too goofy, plus I'd rather see an original looking car than a GP Sports demo car clone.
Chrome 18x9.5 +25 Bee*R B5s, do it! :coold: Who cares if they're cheaper? Use the extra money for some nice big brakes.

Just rolled in the rear running stretch with a 245/35/19. Fronts can fit a 19 if you roll and adjust caster/camber (or turning will not be fun).

Actually the rim sizes your thinking about is exactly what my bro has on his s14, except he has 275's in the rear, the rims fit flush without any fender flares or anything, I will post pics if I get to see the car tonight. And btw it looks very nice.
