Wheel Fitment Question Thread
This thread is to post your question about wheel fitment and is used to HELP EACH OTHER. This is not to talk shit about someone because they want to ask a question about fitment.
Rules: 1. SEARCH! If all fails come here. We are here to help. 2. No shit talking if your not gonna help someone out DONT POST! 3. Pics are not mandatory but will obviously help. 4. The main reason for this thread is to not clutter up the OG fitment thread and stop all the chit chatter. 5. An answer like yes or no obviously wont help so by posting a response your helping to make the question work. If it is seems like an impossible setup a simple no is ok. Make you response useful. EX: Q: Will a 18x10 +18 fit on an s13? A: Yes with some camber and stretched tire. Suggested setup 225/40 about 2.3* of camber maybe less with small pull. Pic: SIMPLE! JUST SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE! ANY SUGGESTIONS TO THE THREAD PLEASE PM ME. ITS MY FIRST BIG THREAD. HEHE. Last edited by frsh4; 06-23-2011 at 10:12 PM.. |

So i posted my car in the fitment whore thread and it seemed to confuse a lot of people so here is my contribution.
My pics have no spacer but you have to remember that when its on the ground its not going to look the same as weight will make the wheels camber in. 17x8 +33, no spacers, stock body, on springs and struts (eibachs and GR-2s if you must know) i was told it will look like this when its on the ground. except this is 17x8 +35. So you do the math. Im also planning on running a 215/40 which is what this cars has also Now for all you s14 guys who may be looking at similar sizes (assuming you can do math) here is similar fitment. Goes to show how much different there is between 13's and 14's. Quote:

This is the first car i can think of that has a lot of width and a good camber. Maybe he can chime in and help. But im think your gonna end of with a lot of poke depending on your aliment settings. I say go with a 255/35 for stock fender and super sweet pull.

Also found this it is the the same width and hes running 225/40 federals, so expect a lot of poke and camber without over fenders. Forgot about this thread. Lets use it!

I need tire and camber suggestions. Im going to be running a 17x9.75 +25 all around. From calculations I'll need a spacer in the front so I have 10mm spacers for te front. Now this car will be drifted so what camber should I be running up front and out back? Currently I'm at about -2 in the front and -.5 out back. And I'm planning on running a 225/45 sounds good? Lmk

This is ~-2.5 camber with a 255/40/17 BFGs on a 17X11 +12. Front shot: The fronts in those photos are 17X10 +7 with 245/40 S-Drives and ~-2.7 camber.

Hey knoop, is there a reason you run such a wide front tire other than it being grippier? I have 17x10 +0 front and am thinking of running a 225/45 dz101. Couldn't you step down a size in the rear too so the pull wouldn't be to far out? I'm not critisizing just asking cause your shit looks dope as it is.

Either way, I'd recommend a 235/40 over a 225/45 just because it has a shorter sidewall, the tires overall height is smaller so you'll have more clearance. Quote:

I loved the way my S14 felt when I was running 17X9s all around...so you don't have to stagger if you don't want to. A 9/10 stagger is fine, but I'd be more inclined to do a 9/9.5 stagger if you decided to run a staggered set up.

What do you guys think of 17x9 +35 F and 17x10 +20 R on an s13 hatch, right now it's slammed on 16's so I'm sure I'll have to raise it up some. I'm looking for a pretty flush stance with maybe -2 or -3 camber. Will I need spacers? Will it fit in the first place? And what about tires? Right now my JIC's are as stiff as possible and I don't rub the 16's.

I'd recommend a 215/40 up front and a 235/40 out back. If you only wanted to run a 15mm spacer over the 20mm up front go with a 215/45 but it will limit how low you can be because S13s are pretty limited for space and a 215/45 is just tall enough to keep you from really slamming it. You may need a slight pull out back, but if you're going to run ~-3 camber you should be able to fit it.

What are you running for shocks? Stock shocks are not gonna keep up with the Eibach springs for sure. For as much money you'll spend, might as well get an entry level coilover and not slam it. |

As far as fitting that much rubber on 9.5js. I think those are going to be over kill, specially those 315s are 11j-12j width territory. Quote:
