I have a stock s14 and want to put on mb battles 17x9.5. I know I have to fender roll but do I have to fender roll too if I run with factory spec for camber? also running 235/35/17 front and 235/45/17 rear.

turbo2nr · 03-03-2011, 12:40 PM

you should be fine with just a roll with 235/40/17 all around

i was running
17x9.5+15 235/40/17 f (-2.1)
17x9.5+15 255/40/17 r (-2.4)

i rolled all around no pull

btw check out rimtuck.com you can find ppl with similar setup's there, or the wheel filament thread here ..

you didn't mention offset so hard to really say

slipandflow · 03-03-2011, 01:43 PM

oops sorry +15.
Turbo2nr: and they sit flush? camber isnt that bad right?

turbo2nr · 03-03-2011, 01:50 PM

yup they sit really flush you could tell they were cambered from the back but it wasnt too bad..

slipandflow · 03-03-2011, 02:17 PM

hows the tire wear though?

turbo2nr · 03-03-2011, 02:41 PM

can give a full review but it will vary upon tire and wear rating..

i had yoko s-drive and i had maybe around 10k on all four tires and it maybe wore around 20% middle and outside and ~35% inside.. not to much different..

stock 240sx is cambered in from the factory fyi.. -2.5 is the limit of factory tolerance as per alignment rack

slipandflow · 03-03-2011, 04:02 PM

yeah they are cambered factory. Thanks a lot bro. Helped a lot.

Stock fenders, roll no pull. No spacer. S13

17x9.5 +15

Fits alright lol. Battles are very stock fender friendly
