So what happens when the Nissan Dealership does BAD bodywork??

[ucfz31s13]

You can fit 15x7.5 -5 Demon Cambers in the rear w/o rolling the fenders.

Stupid lip on a 7.5" wide wheel!

Another degree or so was dialed in the wheel as well AFTER that pic was taken today, and fits quite a bit better.

Apparently when the car was hit in the rear before I bought the car (didn't know it, owner said it hadn't been hit), and when they re-skinned the right rear 1/4 panel, they welded it on about an inch or so too far outward.

Had to roll and semi-flare the left side with a bit more camber to clear the stock fenders. Would roll the right side as well, but they bondo'd some of the 1/4 too, so I don't want my pretty white paint falling off in chunks. :down:

The tires in the rear are 195/60's which is a bit too bubbly for my taste, probably go to a 205/50 which were on my mesh wheels so I should definately be in the clear as far as rubbage goes.

Anyway, here are some pics of the whole car...Specs on the wheels up front are 15x7 +0.

I'm really liking the look of the car w/ these wheels on it, although I picked up five lug and not sure what I'm going to do yet. I had it all planned out on buying 17's, but it's hard to get away from the old school 15" look on s13's sometimes.

Decisions, decisions...they are never easy!

I like it alot.

[sticky240]

damn, very nice. Thats exactly how I want the wheel setup on my hatch to be

[TK]

man i've been in love with those for YEARS looks great... sucks about the incompetent body shop

[sepulchral]

what wheels?, nice

[nightwalker]

for some reason those wheels don't look like 15s. Most 15s look way too small for the 240

[SlideStar]

nice but, they'd look better if they where bigger.

You're going to send it to me for $200!! :D

Sepulchral: Precedeo Demon Camber CST is the wheel name. (Dude, even my wife knew that... :keke: :keke: :keke: )

Thanks for the compliments guys. :)

I think the reason the wheels look so much bigger than your average 15's is because the design of the spokes w/ the one step/flat lip makes the inset of the actual wheel so much larger.

Agreed! But it's not the easiest thing finding Demon Cambers in any size to begin with!

And meph, that 5-lug might be going up for sale, if I decide to keep these...will let you know.

you need to mess with the trunk so it lines up better...its low on the right side i dont know how a body shop would put a quarter panel on an inch wide hmm crazy....probably just mudd filled and just a huge wave...the bodyline looks like it bulges out just above the wheel well.

When 4 tires are stuffed into the trunk and bungee-corded shut on a bi-weekly basis, or even removed completely at times, things get tweaked a little bit.

The car isn't meant to be a show car, it's built for purpose and driven that way so an 1/8" off here or there doesn't get any attention from me.

That'd be much appreciated, Steve. Sorry about the bad bodywork.
It was really a Nissan dealership that did the work?

[zanos]

man,those wheels are badass

[S14DB]

I didn't know any Nissan Dealerships in the CFL area had there own body shop. It looks like I'm glad I didn't.

[iMAGE976]

JUICY!! This is exactly wat im gonna do with My S13, but with impuls!!! i got hope now, i doubted the
-5 offset , But i have Seen the Light!!!! (=

[evilimport]

Whats the name of the Nissan Dealership?

[Thorpedo]

sorry to come off as an asshole in that post....i DO like the way your car looks for sure. nice simple and clean. the only reason i wanted to tell you is so you when you shut it, if its low on one side, the bottom corner of the decklid will hit whatever and chip and start to rust pretty easily and since its on a seam(on the decklid) it could get decently ugly pretty fast. so just giving you a heads up.

[cheez80]

yeah! i got the same size wheels on my s13 hatch, but in ssr full reverse mesh. your chit looks hot, man, keep it up =D

[S14Crossovr]

wow! that looks awesome
