Wheel Clearance On S14 front coilover - 17x9" +20 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

drifter92 · 01-15-2012, 10:37 AM

I searched google for a little bit and couldn't find any definitive pictures of a 17X9" +20 on the front of an s14 dumped on coilovers to show the clearance between the wheels/tire and the adjusting collars and spring.

17x9" +20 NO SPACERS
225/45/17
WedSport SA-70
STANCE GR+ Coilovers

Should fit with no need for spacers...

G240 · 01-15-2012, 02:47 PM

I run 18x9.5 +22 in the front of mine with no problems. I have Stance GR +Pros.

drifter92 · 01-15-2012, 02:55 PM

Yes I'm saying they fit and clear for sure, so when people search on google they have pictures

*fliprayzin240sx* · 01-15-2012, 06:00 PM

You could have just posted it up in the Wheel Fitment thread to accomplish the same thing...

drifter92 · 01-17-2012, 07:00 AM

Oh okay, you mean the "wheel fitment whore thread"?

G240 · 01-17-2012, 07:25 AM

No the Wheel Fitment Questions thread.

get ready to splice your fender harness on drivers side or relocate it.... Ive had to do this a few times.

drifter92 · 01-17-2012, 05:28 PM

mine is out of the way, i used to run 18"s and i learned the hard way, lol

slipnslide88 · 01-17-2012, 05:40 PM

your fine i ran 17x9 +15s on one i had with no issue i was trying to find pics of my old car for you but no luck

drifter92 · 01-17-2012, 06:13 PM

+15 has more clearance than +20 dude...

Im running 17x9 +17 215/40 tire and 1.5 degrees camber. No pull just rolled fender. You can probably safely run factory camber specs on a +20 offset. Depends on the tire you run also. Go to RIMTUCK.com - Wheel Fitment Database
And +20 has more clearance than +15 if im not mistaken. +20 is 20mm inward from directly over the hub (at 0 offset). So +15 offset is closer to directly over the hub than +20.

you are mistaken.

Im talking about clearance to the coilover guys, read the title.

Higher offset hits the coilover
lower offset hits the fender or sticks out

I posted this thread to say "Yes a 17x9" +20 fits on the front of an S14 on Stance coilovers with no spacers needed to clear the coilover

17x9.5 +15 5mm spacer for the front
rolled and pulled to tuck tire.

I had the rim rub against the coilover thats why I went with a spacer.
