Anyone running wide fenders with JDM AERO? (s14) - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Witness · 02-14-2009, 03:23 PM

I know it may be a dumb question, but i was curious if anyone has done this before. I want to run some wide rims but i don't want the stupid fender rolled look and i don't want to get a body kit that will crack over time and hang super low.

So have any of you seen a s14 kouki with jdm aero all around with wide fenders front and back?
or is the front and rear bumper not wide enough for it to look right?

joefresh · 02-14-2009, 04:15 PM

maybe have the fenders done professionally so they look good and not super flared?
oem aero is not aggressive enough for wide fenders/wheel setup imo.

As far as looks, it doesn't flow well, but the parts fit fine. You're assuming the entire fender is wider, which isn't the case, only the wheel well portion and the surrounding area is wider.

is this so on s13 aero also? only some? only the wheel part is wider and it goes back to regular width where it meets bumpers/side skirts?

I rather not roll the fenders if i do i want it as little as possible imo it looks ugly...
Anyone know what the widest wheels you can put with out needing a roll? will 9.5 in the rear clear?

That's the minimum width i want to have

have you seen how wide fenders look? they bulge out at the wheel well as RDM described and similar to how PULLED FENDERS LOOK

oh wait, you don't even want rolled fenders cuz they're ugly? ROLLED FENDERS ARE INVISIBLE, the fender lip that is "rolled" is on the INSIDE

fuck, stop being a pussy

if u want the fitment, do the work

Koopa Troopa · 02-15-2009, 02:59 AM

I had +30mm CWest fenders on my S14 zenki and I pulled the rears rougly 20mm..

Chernobyl · 02-15-2009, 09:42 AM

^ why did you have to pull the rears to run +30 offset wheels?

Because I wasn't running +30 offset wheels.

I was planning on running 17x10 +18 RPF1 with 255 NT01's on all 4.

Yes because this looks so stupid. Extra 40mm over standard. Mine has a roll and subtle flare/pull. You can barely notice its there.

Thats 18x10 +0 btw.

Johny5 · 02-15-2009, 11:32 AM

that does look a tad igmo with those tires man

Quail · 02-15-2009, 12:11 PM

I'm talking about the fenders not the tyres

Witness · 02-17-2009, 01:08 PM

tacotacotaco · 02-17-2009, 08:17 PM
