I have 17x9 +22 te?s and I?m hoping these lmgt?s are the same spec. Thanks in advance!
I mean, the front fenders appear to be aftermarket, but the rears are stock metal.

LMGT4 did come in 17x9 +22, and those def look like at least 245/40 tires.

Yeah the fronts I?ve got figured out, more concerned with the rear. Was thinking maybe it was that specific tire that made it look so meaty. If I can?t track down the owner I?ll just have to do it by trial and error.

youll have to run camber to fit your rears unless you have pulled fenders or over fenders with a 245 or 255.

im 17x9.5 +38 245/40R17 in the rear (i THINK, not 100% on sidewall). i run -1.5 deg of camber to fit properly (which is -0.5 deg camber over factory).

NOT hyping my own products, only recent pics i have that can be posted due to hosting them on my dorkidori web server...




im rolled with no pull

Thanks for the pics and info!

Currently the fenders/quarters are virgin metal. The plan is to have someone roll/pull before paint to allow maximum clearance

Another one of the same car with regas...drool

It is difficult to find stock body + extended LCA fitment pics with specs. Usually people just say 'extended LCAs' and neglect to mention how much they were extended, or what base arm was used (S13 or S14.)

Guess I'll just figure it out myself.

forget if mine are 40 or 45mm, but this is with 17x9 +14 and 215/40. i had to adjust the tophats and the lower coil mount all the way negative to make it work. roughly -10?. if i were to do it again, i'd only extend the lca 20mm and just slot the lower coil mount more instead.

Thinking of getting some new wheels on my car and wondering how the following would fit.

Car has no rolled or pulled fenders. It is on lowering springs but I do not know which brand because I bought it like this. Other suspension components are stock.

Currently on base 350Z wheels
F:17x7.5 +30 215/45/17
R:17x8 +33 225/45/17


Looking at some different Rays wheels and want to know if they would fit fine in a square setup at 245/40/17
17x9 +22
or
17X9 +17

Otherwise I might just stick with R32 GTR wheels.

17x9 +22 would be your best bet, but i'd definitely suggest rolling the fenders.

Trying to achieve the same exact fitment. Anyone know what shock clearance would be like with d2 air shocks and gktech front angle and rear knuckle double wilwood/lca setups? Willtheyfit shows the inner face sitting 4mm in from oem position (15x6+40). Work Meister S1 3P 18x12.5-39 o disk. For reference the spirit rei demo 180 runs an 18x11-20 with a 50mm spacer. Should i step down to 18x12-33 or more and use a spacer? Fronts are 18x10-20 r disk, willtheyfit says they sit 9mm further out from suspension

I know what the parts are because i searched like mad and reposted so i could get help [read page one post one for the rules bc u clearly havent]), but i dont know what the clearance will look like with the maximum fitment i want, and Im not trying to waste $3300 on wheels that bind my suspension or brakes. I might need to run spacers to get the fitment and clearance which affects width and offset. The guy that made that thread was on coilovers and hes out of the game, hence why i asked the fitment gurus. So help or back off.

Hi everyone, new 1995 s14 owner here. Quick tire question currently i'm running a stock setup
205-55-16 6.5Jx16 ET45 5x114.3
I'm looking at getting a Sport Edition SE16 set of tires for a really good price (350 rims and tires) the size is as follows
215-50-17 7Jx17 ET50 5x114.3
I'm wondering what the fit will be like, I dont want any "Poke" I want them sitting flush and looking at stock as possible. Do you think there will be any fit issues/rubbing/problems? I know a bit about tires but would appreciate fit advice from experts here who know more than me. Thank you

You mean the inner barrel? In the rear you?ve got about an extra inch of clearance on the inside from stock so only a 4mm difference is fine. Is 18x11 -20 including the 50mm spacer or not? If that?s with the spacer included, you?d have exactly 1.5? more poke. If it?s not, your wheel will be 12mm more sunk. Front won?t have any suspension clearance issues, just probably gonna run the shit out of the firewall and inner fender at lock if you haven?t hammered the shit out of them.

Those will be sunk as hell. You?d need like a 30mm spacer to have them somewhat flush.

Ill try to be more clear. The spirit rei demo car uses 18x11-20 and then a 50mm spacer to get flush. I dont want to run the spacer and instead order a wider wheel 18x12.5-39. My major concern is having the inner barrel lip/tire contact at the air shock with camber and aired out.

Is there a better size front youd recommend for me to get the most steering angle out of my gktech lca/knuckle set up?

whoa. too many things going on here.

you cannot be flush AND stock as possible at the same time. They're two totally different things.

the only issue you may run into is the wheel contacting the shock/spring, due to that +50 offset. is it possible to test fit before purchasing the new wheels?

there is a massive wheel and tire fitment thread here on this site, full of very useful information on the topic.

still didn't answer about whether the -20 offset includes the 50mm spacer or not... as long as the diameter of the bag isn't more than 2" more than a regular coilover spring you're probably fine unless you're getting crazy with the camber.

i'd suggest a 9.5 up front with a 225/35, but it's really the offset that is going to cause issues and because of how wide the fenders are, i don't think you can really do much about it other than break out the sledge hammer or get to cutting and welding.

The offset doesnt include the spacer. Thanks for your input.

I'm looking at getting a Sport Edition SE16 set of tires for a really good price (350 rims and tires) the size is as follows
215-50-17 7Jx17 ET50 5x114.3
I'm wondering what the fit will be like, I dont want any "Poke" I want them sitting flush and looking at stock as possible. Do you think there will be any fit issues/rubbing/problems? I know a bit about tires but would appreciate fit advice from experts here who know more than me. Thank you
The tires will be 2.4% larger than stock. Wheels will fit, at 7" ET50 offset, they will actually only move out 1mm compared to the stock ones. You lose 11mm on the inside, which is fine and won't rub, but it's starting to get close to the front strut. Won't be "flush" at that offset at all. Ideally you really want to find a wheel in the 30-35 offset range, since it doesn't sound like you want anything too "aggressive". A 7.5" or 8" wheel at ET35 is probably the fitment you're looking for.

Thank you this is great information. I'm slowly learning about tire fitment and know that the knowledge on here is a great resource and I really appreciate you taking the time to reply to this. It helps quite a bit
