Wheel Fitment

Hey guys, I'm new here. I know, I know, there's probably a million threads on this subject, but I'm probably getting a real nice S14 kouki soon and I plan on getting some Work Meister S1 3P wheels, 18" when I get enough money. I was wondering what the the best wheel width, offset, and tire size would be to get it real flush, probably with rolled fenders. I don't know if I want to do a pull. I want it to be flush, but not ridiculous, just so that it looks clean. It needs to be suitable for a daily driver though. Any advice? Oh, and for coilovers, I was planning on getting Tein Super Drift, or Tein Basics, but I'm not really sure. What are the best coilovers for a reasonable price? Please don't flame either. lol

There are better coilover options out there nowadays in the $1k-1.2k range. As far as wheels, look into the wheel fitment threads in the Chat section and get an idea what guys are running.

All personal preference and what you're plans are with the car. Some guys like really stiff suspension, some like softer spring rates. I could recommend you something but you might not like it. Look around, there's a couple of threads right now about certain coilovers. I know there's a thread in Chat right now about Fortune Auto's suspension setup. They're located in Richmond, VA.
