So as the title states i need to know if s13 teardrop rims will clear coilovers. Im not exactly sure which coilovers im gonna get yet but i need to know if they will or if i need to get new rims. if so what offset should i be looking for. keep in mind that im not willing to go bigger than 16" and no smaller than x7. All replies will be very much appreciated. Thanks again!

They will clear most coilovers. Zeals will give you trouble though.

Heh if you can afford zeals, you can afford new rims.

I had N1 PROS with tear drops. We all start somewhere and a good set of coilovers should be first on everybody's list along with a good diff and a nice seat.

I would check to see if those new D-Drugs will fit. They look sexxy and they aren't too expensive. I'm sure they do a great job as well.

i have tein HA's and i had to run a small 5mm spacer up front because of a slight rub. rear is fine tho.
with 205/60s they clear teins, and k-sports

teardrops work well on 30mm spacers
and now, the most overused offset chart in 240 history:
6" +54 or lower
6.5" +45 or lower
7" +40 or lower
7.5" +34 or lower
8" +30 or lower
8.5" +24 or lower
9" +20 or lower
for coilover clearance.
