Also looking to find this answer,

Let alone the perfect RPF1 fitment set up for s14, just rolled fender lips

[tehetti]

I'm trying to fit 18x9.5" +25ish rota p45rs onto my fronts on s13 body.

I'm assuming I would need to pull my fenders or buy overfenders. I currently have no mods except for section coilovers with camber plates and 15mm spacers. Is it possible to fit these p45s on?

If I left out any info, let me know. Just curious as to whether I may need to buy aftermarket steering or suspension parts before I install everything.

These will fit fine with stock s13 fenders and a roll obviously. A guy just a couple posts back on this page has the same wheels and sizes except 17. Its the same poke though. I ran a 9.5 +5 with stock fenders, maxed PBM camber plates and 225-35's so look into that tire size. A 235 or possibly 40 sidewall may work if you're not lowered too much.

9.5s will fit fine with a roll and camber. you will probably need to rock 225/35/R18s though

Thanks,

I'll repost with a photo after installation.

Noob here just trying to figure out if I could run a 17x9 with a 15mm offset on my s13

run 225-45-17 0* and you will be fine. Those are wide enough to fill the wheelhouse, and offer just enough sidewall angle that they will not rub with a '0' fender gap(lowered to be even with the tread)

[ShakotanGazelle]

Won't be a problem with rolled fenders.

Tire size will depend on how much or little camber, and ride height.

Any suggestions on tire size

235/40R17. You might be able to get away with 245/40R17. Search the other 2 threads.

What are peoples opinions on Cosmis Racing wheels?

Anyone have an appropriate fitment for the front/rear with stock fenders? (s14, Rolled inner lip)


I know Enkie RPF1 18x9 +22 (front) & 18x10 +38 (rear) with fat 255 and 275 tires fit (not sure if that really helps)

[frsh4]

Glad to see this thread is still going strong. Good to see members help one another. Maybe I'll get another s13 and get back in the s chassis loop again. Ha

[AnonymousBlackX]

Ok looking into ....MBBattles plan is 17x9.5 +15

First off in rocking the s13 with an aftermarket coilover right now... No clue what is is
And the from z32 brake upgrade

So 1 with the rim clear the brakes?
And 2 do I need to space due to the coilover
And what size tire should I run

And to wrap all this up I am 10000% noob when it come to tires plz treat me like a retard

You should be fine on all counts, run a 225/35 or similar with camber and a roll

if i where to get 17x9 +15 would i still need the roll and camber?

[KAT-PWR]

Yes, you will still need it especially in the rear

Are there a set of MBBattles that require no modification? Aka no rolling or camber? I honestly do know if my fenders are rolled but I wana stay away from modification

If you want MB Battlee's or Weapon's, the 17x9 +15 will reequire no modification...but you will have to stay about 1/2" UP from the tire, ie, NO LOW for you. With a simple roll from 10 - 2, you can drop those all the way to the edge of the sidewall

[bluz370]

Does anyone know the widest setup on the front of an s14?

Would an 18x11 +7 fit in the front with a large pull or 30mm overs?

I would try to measure it out on the car first (pm me if you'd like to know how I do this). I'd say 17x9 or 9.5 in their low offset (+15) would probably work well; even 18's. I'd pick up the wheels, check their fitment on the car then order tires accordingly, keeping in mind the tire's given width is in mm. the tire's profile will help give you any extra clearance that may be needed. I'd check rimtuck . com and tyrestretch . com too for ideas.

On a different note, this question is for everyone using an 11.5" wide wheel in the front: what kind of caster settings are you using and what/ how much work did you have to do to the inner wheel wells up front for clearance?

[s13poop]

Just tried test fitting my new wheels I bought them because of a really good deal
Here's the setup

Work Vs-xx
17x9 +36
17x9 +47

Looks like I'm having some rubbing/clearance issues on my coils
Would I be fine with Ichiba ver 2 spacers 25mm all around? Or What do you guys suggest??

This would be going on a s13 coupe

Think about it this way:
Perfect fitment on any stock s-chassis is
17x9 +15
This fitment fits all years on stock suspension, or lowering springs to a 0 gap, or coils down to a 0 gap with no need for roll or pull.
Knowing these measurements, you can now say your WORKs will fit easily with
Front spacer should be ~20mm spacer
Rear should be ~35mm

You can also go 15mm front and 25mm in back and you will be ok, but you will tuck a lot more. the 20mm/35mm will make it close to flush

Makes a lot more sense now that I think of it that way

Thanks guys for putting it into perspective for me!

Have a s13 silvia. Wanting to run 18x11 in front and 18x12 in rear with 55mm front and rear fenders. What offsets would I need. My car will have tubbed front

11 up front is a bad idea unless you don't want to turn.

[JustA240]

Searched to no avail,

S13
18x10-4 up front, 225/35

Bad time? or nah?

You should be fine. I had a 9.5j -5 with the same tire size recently on my s13. According to willtheyfit you'll be 7.4 mm towards the strut and 5.4 mm closer to the fender. I had full camber on my coilovers (Pbm) and had more than 7 mil extra space to the fenders and more than 5.4 to the strut as well. I can't comment on rubbing at lock but I didn't rub with my size at all. No tubs but I have beat that area pretty substationally too.

Just a quick question, found pictures but unsure if those cars use spacers or not.

17x9 et22 all around. Problems or clear all 4 corners? TIA.
