FN01R-C's on S13 17x8 +35 or 17x9 +20? Z32? Camber?

I have searched and have found only limited info. Anyone running 17x8 +35 FN01R-C's on an S13? 17x9 +20? 17x8 +25? Anyone know if they clear z32 brakes? I know with the 17x9 +20 you have to roll/pull and run more camber, but how much more. I want to get some but want to make sure I don't have to run -3 camber and spacers to clear stuff. The wheels I have now are 16x8 +10 I think, and I have to go -3 camber to clear the fenders. Looking for pics if possible.

slam it down, roll the fenders, and don't fix the camber..

Brake caliper clearance is based solely on spoke design, and has nothing to do with offset.

Tire size (specifically width) will also determine how much fender modification will be needed for the 17x9 +20.

17x9 +20 will protrude about 2.7mm further outboard than your 16x8 +10.

Yes...

Falken FK452's

With it low I have to run -3 camber front and rear. My fenders are rolled and pulled in front and just rolled in back.

So the 17x8 +35's are a good choice?

it depends on how lo you can go, im almost tucking rim with unfixed camber and the widest tire i can barely fit is like a 225/40/17 but 215/40/17 fits nice and flush, but this is 17x9:0 on a s14 so its about the same on a s13..

Why does it suck?

I don't really want to run 17x9... that shit is too wide... and I'm worried about rubbing on the inside. I just want to make sure I can run the 17x8 +35's and clear z32 calipers/coilovers and not have to run super camber.

17x8+35 won't clear Tein HE without spacers, 9 +20 rears are fine.

Im not going to slam it. It'll probably go 2 inches lower then stock. I want
255s on the back. I have 225s on the stock rims and have major traction issues.

what size tires? I run 215/40 with 5mm spacers because I was getting some rub.
