Spacers or not ?

[s13boy]

Hi,Guys I'm a newbie here,if some one could let me know whether or not I would need spacers and if so approx, what size,I have an 89 S13 with
Tein S/S coilovers, 18x7.5 45mm ,215/35, or 225/40 plan on getting 1 of these to tire sizes. I appreciate all comments thanks

Yes, you'll need plenty of spacer. Personally, I'd run a 20mm.

[sykikchimp]

yeah.. 20mm bolt-on is a good choice here..

[Loofee95SE]

with that spacer will it clear Z brakes, and Kyb AGX shocks and 1.2 lowering springs??

[sykikchimp]

It will definately clear the suspension.. The calipers are typically dependent on spoke design, but you get an additional 20mm of spoke clearance with a spacer too.. so more than likely, yes.

Thanks Guys !
Now would that be front and rear for the 20mm spacers or just front?Do you think 215/35-18 or 225/40-18 ? Would like to do some drifting. Thanks again

have you already got the wheels? if not i'd recommend another set. get the spaceers front and rear otherwise it'll look like ass with the fronts semi flush and the rears sunknen in. 7.5 get the 215

I haven't gotten the wheels yet.I'm in love with this car I found and it has this combination,just trying to figure everything out,haven't had no help until now,really want to do this.Thanks, I will get the 20mm spacers all around and
215-35 is a better choice ? The car that has this combo is in the gallery post by West,it's from Japan,has Motegi 7 spokes .type -X, lowered and is black.Take a look.what do you guys think on my assumption of what I am asking about.I can not post that picture over here for some reason. thanks guys,the post is West,180sx 26 2-3,posted sunday april 27 2003.Check it out and lmk

as steeles said, just get wheels that fit properly instead of wheels + spacers. you'll save yourself a bit of a headache.

If you get 20mm spacers just remember that the studs on your oem hub will have to be attacked with the grinder or it will probably start diging into your wheels.

avoid them at all costs, just get the proper offset
