Gonna get some work eurolines(havent picked a model yet)
I have a S13 Hatch, With stock body.
fenders are rolled and pulled slightly, nothing crazy very subtle.
Running Tein HE's, Also have Tein tie rods with spacer installed...

I want to run something like
17x9 + 15 Front
18 x 10 + 25 Rear

What problems will i run into, mechanicaly? Will I be able to full turn with the tie rods?
Rubbing on coilovers?
Will the rear work with that kinda of size ?

I want to run staggered sizes.

White is Erics car from TougeFactory, Red is Dave (owner of TougeFactory), then the black S14 with SSRs was Mike (Daves brother), and the other black kouki with VS-XX is Brian just a customer of TF.

what offset would work better in the rear?

that touge factory car has 18x10 in the back + 4? or is it higher?
Iv seen 17x10 + 25 in the rear and they were about 2.5" out from the pulled fender. maybe the offset was a type... can any one confirm?

hey kidyno, do you know what exhaust is on daves car. trying to look for an exhaust that doesn't have clearence issues on lowered cars and that looks like that is very suitable

The red one is exactly what I want mine to look like down the road. I love how clean and smooth everything looks. And the wheels are just so fresh.

the red one isn't bad... the white one's rear looks like refried doodoo. yeah, i like my wheels to protrude from the fender at LEAST an inch.

thats funny you made a typo writing typo

anyway I have 17x10 +25 on my s13 and they fit fine with 235/40/17 with just rolled rears.
17x9 +15 with 215/45/17 in the front stock fenders is fine too.
the red s13 has 20mm wider front fenders

kurupt - well I have a friend with 17x10+12 it sticks out an assload, but he has 1 degree of camber and its a little high so no rubbing.

KoukiMonster - not sure the brand, possible GP Sports, but that hangs down like a mofo too. But then again he is rocking 18s so its going to sit higher. Try e-mailing him or iming him (aim: tougefactory)

MakotoS13 - crappy angle of the shot, and this was just after he got the wheels on, before it was adjusted height wise

Touring240 - the white one has front overfenders too, and is only rocking like 2 degrees of camber

height ain't gonna help the coupe. he needs more fender.

camber will, and camber will eb added with hieght and so will an alignment, but then again some like it sticking out a lot as long as its just tucked under there. As long as it doesn't rub.
