17x8.5 +25 up front on s13? DT-05R's... - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Decided (w/ the help of dousan) that 17x8.5 +25 in the rear will be nice w/ a little fender roll...Now up front, should I opt for the same, or go w/ 17x7.5 +15. I plan on getting the fronts pulled as well, so should I stay w/ 8.5 +25 on all corners?

Need to hurry up and decide so I can send money, hehe.

Thanks

Ya go 8.5 +25 all around.

Well do the math. The pics below are F: 16x7.5+22 R: 16x8.5 +37

How much camber are you running? The cars in the pics look close to 0, hard to tell in the pics. If you are running close to stock cmaber then +25 in the rear will be 12 mm out (about half an inch).

About how many more mm does pulling em out give you? The white hatch could use a couple mm in the rear depeding on how flush you want em.

Fronts look good though, and if you get 7.5 in +15 it'll be 10mm, which would again could look good, but I don't know how many mm pulling gives. If you are running a lot of camber in the front it won't be the best looking setup with pulled fenders.

There are too many factors with offsets and being flush, I think if you do get the +15 7.5s you wont be pulling the front fenders.

The cool thing about having the same size is being able to rotate the tires. If I were you, I'd go same size front and back.

rather than start another offset thread ill just post here.

would 17x8.5 +25 F and 17x9.5 +30 R work well for s14? looking perfectly flush doesnt concern me as much as clearing coilovers does.

TIA
