Maximum tire size on stock s14 rolled fenders with 18x10 wheel ?

Wassup zilvia , I did a search on this but most of the answers were relating to the rear setup .

My question is , what is maximum tire size someone has run on a 18x10 wheel up front with stock rolled fenders on a s14 ?

If it matters , the offset is between around +3 .

-Billy

ive seen people run 17x10 +12 FNsd on front with a 235/40 tire

so with you having a slightly more aggressive offset i would say a 225/40 or 45 should do ya good!

295s IIRC.

The cars pretty beat looking though.

S14 front fenders get wider the more ugly the get. total nissan hocus pocus.

it's all depending on how much work you want to do you can get all the way up to a 335/30R18 depending on how much work you want to do, and how much money you have. the tire itself is 13.2 in. wide so it's not impossible to mount on a 10 in. wheel. cost is deffinetly a factor though, i would wholesale those for somewhere around $295.00 a tire, and i can imagine what dealer markup would be.

You guys all fail at reading......

STOCK ROLLED FENDER. Meaning... No hammer, no puller, no bat, no shoe, no newspaper, etc.


Also meaning the OP is FUCKED because a 10 +3 wheel will not fit for SHIT with merely a rolled fender... Well, unless you do some bullshit 215 tire which totally defeats such a wheel up front.

Moral of the story.

1. Zilvia cant read for jack shit.

2. OP is fucked

3. I'm still jealous over acinhole's tires.
