B) to fit wider wheels, it's the shock/strute/spring that matters, since it sits in FRONT OF THE wheel well.. what a dumbass.. Wasting power with heavy rims?? Do you speak from experience or did you get that outta ya ass? Seriously, if you never had a big rim on, dont talk. couple guys on this forum running 18's didn't feel the big wheelies slowed them down... refer to "A" <--- dont act too hard there my man..


Now back to the newbie question (i've done extensive research, take my word):

for s13, you should get 17's all around. Running 18's means to get low low profile tires and that means rough ride comfort. Unless you get a body kit, 18 would look too big.

To lower the car more then 1.5 inches, Biggest rims can fit is 17x7 +30 in front and 17x8.5 +32 in rear. +## is offset..</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
I hope you're not a retarded as you sound, of COURSE larger rims require more energy to turn; it's simple physics. Do u even know why people run larger rims? Guess not.

Did i say Nissans are ugly? NO, i love my 240 but i'm not about to go spend &nbsp;$2k on rims just for appearance at the expense of performance.

And guess what buddy, fuggin' 3 yrs in engineering has taught me why a larger rim soaks up more energy, not your seat-of-your-pants dyno.

Tell u what dumb-ass, go finish the 3rd grade and come back w/ something more than childish insults.
