wheel offset advice for s13 with 18's?? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Would a set of 18's...fronts being 7.5 with an offset of 38
and a rear set of 8.5 with an offset of 35 work for a us 240sx... year is 1990. Would there be any rubbing? And What size tire would you guys recommend? Keep in mind the drop is like 1.50 all around. I may be getting a set of springs 1.3 drop or 1.5 drop. Im trying to make my mind up.

Thank you guys.

sounds gross but its ur car....if you went lower it will rub, and not clear coilovers, with just springs its gonna look 4x4, its funny when people ask about rubbing and then say theyre gonna put on springs, its like an oxymoron

stockers will look better.
those are some mega lame wheel sizing and offset

They will look especially silly since they are 18's if they were 16's it might be a different story. Well, then again, your gonna use springs so..

well, Im not sure I can figure out the offset. I"ll do some researching. it's why i chose to ask you guys. What about 17's as in below:

17x7 +38 front
17x9 +35 rear?

any pics of anyone's car on that setup and lowered?

I dont want to make my car look stupid. What would you recommend for 17's or 18's? Thank you again for your advice.
