That S13 two-tone is amazing.

drift donkey · 05-24-2011, 06:46 PM

So, I want to tuck some 17x10's or 17x9.5's on my s13 that only has a fender roll, but I can't seem to find what offset would be best. I have looked at alot of threads and can't seem to find anything. I would like to keep the camber pretty much 0 or -1.5 at the most I am running an LS want more rubber on the road. Any help would be great with this and that is why I have come to the TUCK thread.

!Zar! · 05-24-2011, 06:49 PM

So what are you asking? Do you want to know tire size or offset?

kalypso123 · 05-24-2011, 07:25 PM

tuck 18's in the rear instead.

increase your offset by +5mm of whatever is flush. use rim tuck to find flush. and add camber to adjust.

...joe is the shit.

this angle looks good, but from the rear it looks pretty stupid i think. to much fender imo

Well it doesn't look like that anymore. He went to 50mm overs in the rear after someone hit him at a local event.

Here's a photo we did from the Import Tuner shoot.

that rear fender looked like shit from day 1. tin mans head going on back there.

I would do 18's but 17in tires are cheaper

I understand the +5, but what is a flush offset for a 17x10 or 17x9.5? Thats really what I am trying to find.

Just wanted to offset, I am going to put as much rubber as I can.

Z_Spool · 05-25-2011, 09:36 AM

I agree... It was kinda cool for the unique factor, but still looked horrible IMO. I def. Prefer it now with the Overs.

ericcastro · 05-25-2011, 10:10 AM

I want pic of it with the overs!!!

Z_Spool · 05-25-2011, 10:20 AM

trying to find better pics as I know I've seen some...

Z_Spool · 05-25-2011, 10:39 AM

he doesn't appear to be tucking wheels anymore though. :/

1. because he doesn't have extended fenders anymore
2. that's not the side under compression

Z_Spool · 05-25-2011, 11:20 AM

1. Yeah, that's obvious. :P He'd need to sag the overs or go to different weel/tire sizing.
2. Look at the top static shot. Stil not tucking.

Z_Spool · 05-25-2011, 11:23 AM

oh, and I'm not saying he needs to tuck either. Looks good as is IMO. Just saying...

Does it also handle like shit being that low? lol

ericcastro · 05-25-2011, 02:19 PM

I think it looks better where it is now, no need for tuck.
And the overs look better.
Those Boso bubbles/flares where cheating down about 2 inches i think. lol

Z_Spool · 05-25-2011, 02:57 PM

I want those meshies.... Who makes 'em?

Super_OK_S13 · 05-25-2011, 03:34 PM

@ericcastro- they make "camber tires" to help with handling, but in some circumstances riding with this much camber can actually help or can be used for countersteer setups without changing gear/pulleys to obtain the countersteer look/action.

@Z Spool- they are SpeedWayPal Slidemaster FM 10mm offset rear/7mmoffset front

lol
I was being sarcastic, as in, lowering a 240 that low decreases handling.....

Wake · 05-25-2011, 05:02 PM

HOLY SHIT Eric was being sarcastic?

Thats as rare as zar! being an asshole.

Or me complaining about knock off's

Side note; That joe guys 2tone looks a million times better with overs instead of his homemade flares. Those easily gave him a couple inches and should therefore disqualify him from this thread.
Anyone can weld a piece of metal onto their rear wheel arch and tuck rim. It takes serious balls to tuck rim into "stock" rear s13 arches.

Just because import tuner featured it doesnt mean its not ghey as fuck. They are the kings of making ricers feel better about their mods. Always have been.

silviaguy240 · 05-25-2011, 05:05 PM

i almost did, toe arms wouldnt let me go any lower

Wake · 05-25-2011, 05:07 PM

horse shoe and hand grenades bud, lol

silviaguy240 · 05-25-2011, 05:20 PM

car ended up getting messed up before i could mess with it after i got my pbm toe arms. definately would have then. but honestly, you have to drop the front stupid low to get it to look right without having overs that sink down a inch or so. like for it too look right, it would have to sit on top of the tire in the front
