Wheel Fitment - 180SX Bee*R B5 & Work Emotion XD9s - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Rasty180SX · 07-25-2007, 03:07 AM

I currently have a 25mm overfender on the front & 30mm rear wide fenders on my 180SX from D-MAX. http://www.dmax-cs.com/fender.html. I currently have a set of JIC Flat A-2's for my suspension.

My plans are to purchase the following wheels from Japan:

Bee*R B5's 18 X 9.5 +25 on all corners(http://www.beer.com/main/parts/wheel/ )
-OR-
Work Emotion XD9's Front: 18 X 9 +20 Rear: 18 X 10 +18
( http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/product...d=7&Item_id=45 )

Now my question is -- how difficult is it to fit these rims on my 180SX??? I just wanted to get everyone's opinion before I purchase them. I am still waiting for an e-mail from Bee*R Racing and Work Wheels regarding the fitment. I've seen a majority of 180SX/S13 owners fit 17 X 9's on their car but I wanna go with bigger wheels. Opinions on tire sizes are welcome!!!Thanks in advance.

Gene, you DO realize that we have those Bee*Rs on our 180, right?

Ours are the 18x9.5 +25 size too.
Stock fenders (rolled/pulled) and camber.

Actually we had to run 5mm spacers (or so) in front to clear the coilovers.

I wish the Bee*Rs came in 9.5 +10 or 15 (or less, even).

yokotas13 · 07-25-2007, 06:06 AM

hey i have XD9s 18x9 +20 on my stag
you can test it

liv2drift045 · 07-25-2007, 01:09 PM

great choice in wheels, both will fit w/ no much work at all

g/l

Rasty180SX · 07-25-2007, 08:08 PM

Thanks for the input guys. Kevin, I'll probably check out your car once I get a chance. And Grant...I'll see you on Sunday!!! We still good for Yokota right? Aite then I'll give you a call.

**I just need to swap my R32 hubs & brakes so I can finally fit the XD9s and the Bee*R rims.

What about tire sizes? Any opinions?

DOOK · 07-25-2007, 08:10 PM

you won't need the overfenders with those offsets and widths I don't think will you?

yokotas13 · 07-25-2007, 08:12 PM

so far so good
we can meet at the front gate on sunday i guess.

Btw i can get those XD9s in super cheap prices like..

Rasty180SX · 07-25-2007, 08:14 PM

Thanks for the input guys. Kevin, I'll try to come by and see you when I get a chance. I almost forgot you had these rims. Grant, we still good for Yokota on Sunday?

What tire fitment? Any suggestions on fronts and rears?

DOOK · 07-25-2007, 08:17 PM

yokotas13 · 07-25-2007, 08:18 PM

thats what id do

Rasty180SX · 07-25-2007, 08:19 PM

Grant,

Please disregard my last reply. But how cheap can you get them? I got enough cash to buy a set. I'm still have to sell my CR-Kai's 18" on my R33 Skyline. Let me know if you can get me a good deal. I asked Carrest Zama for a price quote and they gave me around ¥53,500 for two. I was like daaaaammmnnn. Anyways, we can meet up at the gate.

Ian · 07-25-2007, 08:19 PM

Grant...you can get works for cheap?

like cheaper than aspec?

Rasty180SX · 07-25-2007, 08:20 PM

Hahahaha, I got your bottle of water!!! Aquafina okay with you (=

thats about right

i charge 1250 + shiping to the staes for a set of XD9s

but Since i bought 3 sets of wheels from fuji corp in the last 4 months, they should cut me a deal, they did on the Weds.
we can try there.

Rasty180SX · 07-25-2007, 08:29 PM

That's wassup! I've never heard of Fuji Corp. I usually get my wheels from Carrest Zama since I live down the street from them. So a set should be around $1,000 to $1,100. That's pretty good

viscid240 · 07-25-2007, 08:44 PM

I have xd'9 on my girls s14 they are nice. I have always been a fan of the Bee-r's though.

Yakotas13: Can you get a set of bee-r's in 17/18 stagger?

grant can get his hands on a porno of the pope and queen latifah man, I have no idea how the fuck he does it

Bushido · 07-25-2007, 10:22 PM

with overfenders you're gonna need at least a 20mm spacer to be flushish

Rasty180SX · 07-26-2007, 02:28 AM

Well, the guys at Caddy Inc shop in Japan finally called me back this afternoon. If you check out Work Wheels website you'll see a green 180SX with an ORIGIN Body Kit (+20mm front fender and +50mm rear fender): The owner said that I might not be able to lower the car that much because of the size of the rims. That is why people usually get staggered fitment (17inch front & 18inch rear). Anyways, I will talk to Grant about this on Sunday. Hopefully he can shed some light since he got the XD9's on his car.

I would like to drop the car with them 18's on for a meaner stance. I still want to purchase both sets Bee*R and XD9's before I leave Japan.

yokotas13 · 07-26-2007, 04:55 AM

bring them up here
ill have you ganster low without any prolems in a day

I believe they've stop making them.

The manufacture who makes the wheels for Bee-R left , so I was told you can still have a custom set made but they will 2-3x the price of the orginals

Bushido · 07-26-2007, 03:49 PM

Rasty,

mr. mephsophiles has the same wheels on his s13 on stock fenders...
you'll definetly need some spacers.

I was thinking that also. Look at peeps running 18x9.5 +12 Emotions on stock body work. You'll need spacers.

Rasty180SX · 07-27-2007, 01:56 AM

Well, I will try to fit the wheels as soon as I get them. I'll post some pics!!!

Well I can ask the owner of the shop this weekend. I live 5 mins. away from the Bee*R shop which is located in Kanagawa, Japan. The last time I was there, I was quoted ¥25,000 per wheel which comes to about $220-230 depending on the Yen rate. I'll find out!!!

**mrmephistopheles** · 07-27-2007, 05:57 AM

Hey Gene, PM me directions to get to the shop. I haven't been there yet, and Lisa wants the Bee*R stickers for the wheels. :ghey:

Rasty180SX · 07-27-2007, 10:14 AM

Hey Kevin...check your inbox. I PM'd you about the directions.
