This is the only decent pic I have right now....

This is the rear right wheel...again TEIN Super Street coilovers, 17x9 +17mm with a 245/40/17 tire...

Outside pic:



SO that shows that inside, I look like I have at least an inch or more of clearance, and on the outside, it speaks for itself....

^Finally somebody does something worthwhile in this thread.....

SO for anyone who may be confused....

For INSIDE clearance.....the above picture shows a 9.5 wide +28 wheel

The INNER clearance is the same as:

10" +22
9" +34
8.5" +41
8" +47

You get the point....this is for S13 btw

i know its kinda pointless to say this now, but in the next two weeks I will take pictures of my lowered s14 with 18x9.5 +22 front and rear with 265/35/18 tires.

I have that on my rears now, but Im going to see what kind of restrictions I have on the front with this same setup, thinking at worst a roll and a thinner tire, so we will see.

car is on agx/sportlines and if your curious the rear only needed a roll with stock suspension arms and camber.

here's how it looks now:


Yes thats a dent above the wheels, current specs:

235/40 18x8.5+30 fronts
265/35 18x9.5+22 rears
agx/sportlines, stock suspension arms and camber

who you talking to? if its me, I already have those wheels at those specs on my car, all it required was a roll on the rears to clear the tires...i will be trying out the 18x9.5+22 rear wheels on the front with the 265/35 to see what changes I have to do to get it to fit, I will post pictures for those interested

You can use the fender roller to give it a pull. The catch is the more aggressive the pull, the more likelier your gonna chip the paint. Then S13 rear fenders have a tendency to bow in above the area youre pulling, when you pull too hard, atleast on the hatchbacks.

^ Heatgun will help a little with the paint not chipping, just be gentle when you pull...don't pull straight out!!!!

Always pull on an angle while you are rolling, so you don't buckle the metal or whatever
