Need some info on some Draglites on an S14. My setup consists of 30mm z32 brakes...also have the rear z32 brakes. Anyone have any idea of what offset/etc I'll need to fit a set of skinnies up front and a decent(9''+) setup in the rear? Including tires? This is going to be a drag car.

Edit: I think I might have found my ideal wheel: 17x9 Rota DPT - Gold (5x100/114.3/e42/73) Wheeldude.com - Professional wheel dealer. #1 Rota Dealer. 17x9 42 mm offset, 5x 114mm available. they are selling for 850$ per set so they are a bit higher then I wanted to spend but they might be worth it. I should be able to get a 275mm tire on a 9" wheel just fine, right? Fred Last edited by Fred Allen Burge; 04-05-2009 at 04:53 PM.. |

Found some info from Weld. They said a 15x4 with 1 1/2 B/S would clear fronts, and 15x8-9'' in the rear with a 5 1/2 B/S would clear. Only issue with this is they are nearly $500 a wheel.

Hi, Don't know if this has been covered yet but:
I would like to run 17 x 9.5 +30 wheels on all four corners with coilovers & Z32 brakes all around. I would like to do so without pulling nor rolling my fenders. Would this be possible and how so with camber & tire specs? Also, I'm open to running 17 x 9's all around if needed. The car would be a NA KA24DE s14 with I/H/E. |

wouldn't it be handy if we had a big thread to use as a database for stuff like this? seriously, did you read the thread at all? can you handle basic math? it's not that hard.
to answer the question, 9.5" +30 will likely hit the coilover in the front. if you space it out (10-15mm will do it), it will hit the fender. you're going to have to roll the fender. here's my quick and dirty way to figure out tire width. take wheel width, add 1" for wheel lips, convert to metric by multiplying by 25.4, round up or down depending on how much buldge or stretch you want. that will give you a very mild stretch. 9.5+1=10.5*25.4=266.7 i'd run 265/40/17s if they were readily available, but 255/40s are more common. brake clearance has nothing to do with wheel specs, only spoke design. you'll have to test fit or find someone who has for that particular wheel.

You are not tucking. 16x7 is a weak size. 225 is not that much tire.
Sorry to burst your bubble.

Here's what I found I'll be running(getting these super cheap from a friend)
255/50/16 MT D/R on stock z32 rims. Think I'll have to do any roll/spacers?

ok so i have read alot here and from what i gather you guys are saying that i with a stock metal s13 (rolled and small pulled already) can run 255/40 all around on my 17x9 +22 with 10mm spacers all around. i would like to try to get some better grip then my 235's that i have on there right now, though i am not sure how much more grip i will gain.

A&M Boy, +24 in the front? Most people would need spacers to clear the brakes. Those wheels must have a nice spoke design. Who makes them?

I'm no rocket scientist but I'm going to assume since they are Cobra wheels they are either made by FORD or knock offs of the wheels made by FORD. But thats just a guess, I mean I could be wrong, they could be made by Honda or something, maybe they are super cool works or volks? Who knows, we'll have to wait and see from the owner of the wheels.

They are OE brand knock off mustang wheels. Also i have a wilwood bbk and it seems to clear better than the 300zx brakes it had on it before.
