S14 Bmagic front fender fitment issues - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

So, I caved in and bought Bmagic front FRP fenders which is suppose to be wider than stock to clear mywheels 17x9 +0.

Boy was I wrong, these hardly clear my wheels with the coilovers set at full - camber, I already trimmed the fender "lip" but it still doesn't clear. Is there any other way to make it fit?

I see other people running sicker wheel set ups then I am with these fenders and it doesn't seem like they have clearance issues at all, I'm currently running 225/45/17 tires up front right now, I ordered a set of 215/40/17 Feddy's. Could my suspension setup be causing it also?

weird...i could fit 17x10 +5 with a 225/45/17 on the fronts of my stock s14 fenders. I have the same fenders and they are a lot wider then my stock ones. Does bmagic make stock replacements by any chance?

I have the b-magic fronts 30mm on my s14 and am running 17X9 +12 IIRC and they clear perfectly fine. I am running prolly about -3* of camber but still dont see how you are running into such issues.

I have BMagic S13.4 front fenders. They are okay. Not great, but my only other option is Raceon.

I thought about cutting the fender lip and attaching universal fender flares on top of wide fenders?

Spdelemts wheels are an inch wider. Even with +5 more offset, they stick out 8mm wider.
