17x10" +12 FN01rc on S13?
about to order 17x9 +20 in the front with a stretched 215, and 17x10 +12 in the rear with a streched 235.. i have rolled/ pulled fenders all around so will it be a problem clearing on an S13? also, what side walls should i get with that tire size to make it look a little "meaty" not like im rolling on rubber bands you know what i mean? thanks for the help in advance.. also, does anyone have pics of a 17x10 +12 mounted in the rear of an S13? searched all day all i could find was a pic of 17x10 +35 on an S13...

You should be ok, but you'll definitely need that pull. Check www.MA-Motorsports.com in the gallery, I believe they have a couple cars running that wheel in the rear. Burgundy Fastback and Champagne coupe with S13 front end. Don't quote me on that though. I think that's what Brian told me at the last event...

why not just go with the 10 +35 in the back instead?
you're putting a 17x9+20 in the front, which isn't nearly as aggressive as the 17x10+12 you want to put. the 10 +35 is gonna be plenty flush, just order that imo. you have 5 lug only in the back? no hate, gotta save that paper!

stretch tires let you use the heaviest rim possible to put down as little rubber on the road. ITS JDM!
it does look kinda nice sometimes though.

or you could actually do it right and run tires that fit right. fucking people i swear... people who stretch their tires obviously don't care about performance, unless you're a sweet drift0r, then i guess it doesnt matter and the smaller contact patch is good.
chmercer, you're a moron. go back to your awesome 18x10 rims that don't even perform as well as a set of 17x9s with tires that actually fit because you stretched the shit outta your tires and you're rolling on rubber bands... too cool. i bet that car looks badass while its parked and not moving, because thats all stretched tires are good for (even though they don't even look good) i don't know what is up with the trend of "flush" rims with huge lips and stretched tires, waste of fucking money and performance. |

Dude, how about you calm down.
People can do what they want, and you may not like it, but doesn't put you in a position to be a dink about it. Go start a pissing parade in another thread instead of taking this one there.

17x9 +20 offset... that blows... it means you will have to run full positive camber on your OE bolts and full negative on a camber plate just to get your wheel to sit straight.
you need a 17x9 + 10 if you want your upper camber plates to work. I got a 17x9 +15 and i hate the fact that i have to use spacers to get some savage negative.

I'm running 17 x 9 +20 with no problems at all just rolled fenders, but I haven't droped her yet either, when I do I'll probably have to pull too. I imagine you wouldn't have to adjust your settings this extreme unless your slamming the car right? The most I'll be able to drop my car is 2 inches anyway, if I go anymore I won't be able to make into my driveway or drive more farther than 5 miles on the OK roads. ![]()

apparently you missed the part where i was giving him shit for STRETCHING the tires. and for "rubber bands" i was referring to sidewall stiffness and height. obviously a wider tire and greater contact patch is better, but stretching the shit out of a tire to fit on a 10" rim isn't good. sidewalls aren't made to be slanted or at an angle due to stretching. it wont handle as well or last as long as a tire that fits right on say an 8.5" or 9" rim which is what i was saying.
don't get me wrong, big rims with a lot of lip are cool, i love the look. however, stretching the shit out of tires so they don't rub isn't. you're proud to be on the news because... ? why would drifting be on the news? its not like you won a D1 event. i'm not a drifter fan either way, so i could care less really. now lets keep the bickering to a minimum so this guy's thread doesn't get locked. |
