s13 xxr 526 fitment question

Could someone tell me what size wheel spacer/ offset i would need to make it look flush.The sizes are 18x9 in the front and 18x10.5 in the rear. I was planning to run 18x9 0 front and 18x10.5-2 rear for the offsets but wasnt too sure of what looked best for what i wanted. and what tires sizes?

i drive a sil-eighty( s13 fastback) and my coils are maxed out low in the rear and almost maxed out in the front. i want it to sit like this s13 right here. hes running 18x9 +6 and 18x10 -1. found it on rimtuck. so please help, and sorry if this question was already asked. i searched using the forums tools and thread tools but no luck.

do some research to find out what offset means.

Your answer is in the math.

so buy some shit and see how it fits YOUR CAR WITH YOUR PARTS

I'm pretty sure you can't have shitty cast china wheels made in whatever offset you want, and you've already got sizes picked out, so get those sizes in the lowest offset you can and spacer that shit until it looks good

tire sizes just look at whatever people fit and don't be an idiot and you'll be fine

^^^he's trying to acheive the looks of the car above. It can be done. He just needs to do the math to find out how big of a spacer he needs to add.

That information he is going to have to do the work for.

Yeah ive done a lot of research and just wanted to get some other opinions on what looks best and how its done properly. I just wanted some reassurance from all you zilvia pros, haha. I really dont want to pull my fenders out too much, thats why the s13 pictures i posted was the perfect fitment i was looking for. do you guys think if i run a 22 mm spacer in the back to make it -2 and 20 mm spacer in the front to make it +5, will i have similar fitment and stance as him?

So "perfect fitment" is having 100 degrees negative camber and still having your wheel protrude 3 inches past the quarter panel? You should re-think your sizes if you're not looking to do a fender pull. 18x10 is pretty a pretty damn big wheel. Also, for the love of god stop using the word stance. Visit the wheel fitment thread or just walk outside with a ruler and figure it out.

What the fuck is the point of buying brand new wheels if you're just gonna slap spacers on it?!?! There is no such thing a perfect wheel setup, you buy the wheel and you pull the fenders to work with what you have. It wont be "hellaflush" if you dont touch the damn fenders.

most places it is. but the pull will have to be done. there's no how can or anything. the rear will be slight, but you may want to have a good stretch on the tires and dont forget to to put your wiring in the front ziptied up farther in the well/fender, or you'll rub through and eff your whole car up.
