Honestly it's much easier to just get 20mm front fenders, or even 40mm front fenders, instead of messing with the flimsy stock front fenders.

Nearly all attempts will result in complete failure.

The S14 front fenders do come out a little better, but the S13/180sx ones, forget it. They're too thin and too flimsy.

kalypso123 · 12-15-2009, 03:57 PM

I like 10" fn's but i dont like black ones

that car will look nice tho.

rhd_sw20 · 12-15-2009, 04:07 PM

15 x 8 -50

*hOngsterr* · 12-15-2009, 04:12 PM

shit,
for being semi stock looking,
thats clean.

Chernobyl · 12-15-2009, 04:17 PM

^^ That looks oddly good, until you see the ugly wheel faces of course. Interesting take on an S14.

JDM_s14 · 12-15-2009, 04:27 PM

Lowered my front some more. Now I need new tires for the rear and lower it some more than I'll be good.

Devan? wtf you can't even spell my name right? its devin!!!! haha

but you mean the enkies? the nt03? those weren't aggressive enough but those are sitting in my garage. The enkies are only 17x9.5 +18 and they are super beat up lol. I can't wait until I paint the car once its done!!!!! and get a kit of course!!!

And to everyone saying they don't like the flat black wheels? I like it so who cares...

The car is white and black so black wheels look really good in my eyes. The car will soo be painted with with a black roof and pillars. There is too buck black in the roof area to paint the roof the body colour in my eyes.

Those FN's look a ton better than that dumpster spec that you had going on prior.

15's should be left for corollas and what not. If you can't afford tires, then drifting and aggressive motorsports might not for you.

JRex · 12-15-2009, 06:45 PM

Yea it looks way better now. 15's don't belong on 240s.

Well im glad thats your opinion, And when did i ever say I couldnt afford tires? I just said 15's are cheaper. So read and comprehend and stop just trying to bash. thanks.

Lol, Sorry Devin, come get the rest of the paint so you can finish the car!!!

*hOngsterr* · 12-15-2009, 07:23 PM

Weedm · 12-15-2009, 07:33 PM

I agree that 15's don't belong on S13's, but he made those 15's look damn good. I actually like how his car looked more before the Fn's.

I'm running a 255/35 on my 18x9 +20 up front and it rubs like a bitch, I had to raise it up a tad and dial in about 4-5 degrees of negative camber(a lot of camber!) for it to not rub. It's stupid to have wide tires up front if you have to camber the hell out of them to clear that's why I'm getting some smaller tires and saving these for the rears when I need them.

180boi · 12-16-2009, 05:40 AM

Ktown_drifter · 12-16-2009, 08:03 AM

Seriously, if you're looking for a GRIP SETUP, you might want to look in the "maximum grip" or whatever it's called now thread, where dudes have squared up tires on wide wheels, front and rear.

But if you're just drifting and looking for some more grip, then a 235/40/17 on a 9" or 9.5" wheel would give you that, provided you get a high grip compound tire like the Dunlop Z1 Star Spec.

seriously... u taking this to serious

SoSideways · 12-16-2009, 09:36 AM

What?

I'm trying to help the guy fit some tires on his wheels.

Posting in the wrong thread won't get him any help.

I guess being a nice guy for once is actually the wrong thing to do on here.
