~And what size spacers do you think hes running F&R to get that stance.
p.s i have searched high and low.

8.5 +33 all around. 35mm spacer in the front, 43mm in the back.

How ridiculous of a roll and pull am I looking at with some 15x8 -35 on a S13? I am thinking 205/50s but just a thought.

17x9-10 you would poke out about 7-8mm more than this

s15willy · 05-15-2012, 05:32 PM

I bout adjustable camber arms , for my s14 , and it the arms are maxed out , and my car still isnt as agressive as i want it, what else would i need to purchase? , also i have front camber plates maxed out? how can i get the -3 and -4 camber i want?

*fliprayzin240sx* · 05-15-2012, 07:39 PM

Get the rest of the arms. If you get rear upper control arms, you need to get toe arms too. Eventually, you max out the traction arm too if you're low enough.

srs question... would it be hard to drift a stock KA with 265s in the rear?

Is this guy gunna need a pull?

revcyanide · 05-16-2012, 08:36 AM

zenki s14, stock body rear with a roll, will possibly have a very slight pull.

chargespeed +20 front fenders.

What is the ideal offsets with 17x9 fronts and 18x10 rears. I would like to tuck rim in the rear rather than be flush. front's flush but Functional
Functional camber.

tires will be something like a 215/40 star spec.
I have my choice of rears, 225/45, 235/40, and i think i have a pair of 215/45's as well.

Thank you very much!

Also if pics with chargespeed overs on a zenki s14 are available, that would be awesome! thanks!

out back you could tuck rim with an 18x10 +18 with just a roll

*fliprayzin240sx* · 05-16-2012, 11:31 AM

Could run as low as 9j +0 with about 2* of functional camber. +12 if you decide to run wider tires (225/45-17)

aKaFlipSide · 05-19-2012, 06:15 PM

On an s14 how would 17x9 +25 in the front, and 17x10 +20 in the rear fit? Would I need to roll or pull the fenders? Would I need a spacer to clear the coilovers in the front? I'm gonna have Fortune auto 500 coilovers on it if that helps any. I'm new to this and don't really know much about how wheels are gonna fit and whatnot.

Thanks!

usdm180sx · 05-19-2012, 06:25 PM

You will need at least +20 or less on a 9" wide rim to clear coilovers in the front depending on the coilover manufacturer. +15 should clear MOST coilovers

The front should fit, worst case scenario, you'd have to throw on 3-5mm spacers to clear the suspension. Those sizing are actually not bad if you dont want to pull the fenders but you'd probably still wanna roll the fenders.

pacotaco345 · 05-19-2012, 08:32 PM

Has anyone ever used ford ranger chrome steelies on their cars? I just bought a pair for 20 bucks, 15x7 and they seem to be +20 offset from my measurments. I'm in the process of buying 5 lug hubs so they'll be mounted for real shortly but for now...

Thanks! What about the rear? would they fit okay? A 3-5 mm spacer really isnt that bad on the front. Also, what size tires should I run if i decide to get these wheels?

JasianBlazin · 05-19-2012, 10:23 PM

your fronts wont need a spacer, rears wont either.
205 up front, 225 in the rear.

Wenzel · 05-19-2012, 10:30 PM

Anyone running anything like this on a s14 ?

18x9.5 5x114.3 +12 73.1mm
18x9.5 5x114.3 +22 73.1mm

Personally, 225/45-17 up front and 245/40 or 255/40-17 in the rear.

I'm Redline · 05-20-2012, 09:27 AM

So after way way too much thought on tires and wheels, we have finally decided on what to go with.
225x17 up front, and 235x17 out back. I figure after a few PM's back and forth that going +25-+30 will work, but we want to only at a minimum have to roll the inner lip to keep the stuff tucked with no camber or other non 'not quite oem' look. I also want at least 2" of rim outside of the spokes...wheels will be Gram Light's 57C's if we can get them, but we are going for that or a similiar five spoke look. Basic sleeper, no body kit, and before wheels and tire, Isis coil overs from Enjuku Racing so we can give just enough drop to lower the front closer to the tire, and the back closer but keep a slight bit of forward slope to the stance

My question is this: A +30 wheel has no real rim because the spokes are as far out as they can go. What measure of +/- will I need to go with 17" x 9j front and back, or will 7.5F and 9R work as well? (these numbers are based off of available Gram Light's wheels at shops in the center of the US)

*fliprayzin240sx* · 05-20-2012, 03:01 PM

Honestly, why would you pay a butt load for gram lights and buy shitty 7.5 rims? Atleast get 9js up front, about +20 if you want to be conservative.

I'm Redline · 05-22-2012, 07:51 AM

Those were the measurements from a full set for an S14 from a KY website. 9j is the plan because I know I can run 225F, and 235-245R on them, but I am leaning toward the
235's for a little more inertia drift in hard cornering. The car sets up really nice on oem stuff in hard corners. Only thing I am trying to figure out is the rear end set up. I have searched for HICAS, and RUCAS, know the hicas is rear steering, but don't think I have that...or do I? It is a '96SE, fully loaded...

No US s14s didn't have hicas and whoever in ky had that setup is a dork. Just get 17x9+20 with 235/40 all around. Get ruca's if you feel like correcting your camber. If you go with a lower offset and are not conservative then run 215s
And the way you phrased your question an RUCA is a rear upper control arm if that's what you were asking.

Thank you very much for your help! This is my first time playing around with wheel fitment and trying to make things look nice, rather than just getting everything close enough.

I am still deciding on 215/40 or 225/45 up front Really wish star specs came in a 225/40 as that would be perfect haha.

So the wheels I ended up getting are 57 pros, 17x9 +25 18x10+22 if I measured correctly.

So I may throw a 5mm on the rear, or just run it as is.

I have a 22 mm spacer I can put up front if I wanted. But that would leave me with really weird backwards stagger if I left the rear wheels as is.

If I run a 5 mil out back and a 22 mil up front. I would be sitting almost square. With the fronts only being 1 mm our more. It would bug me a lot, but really would not be noticeable.

Maybe I will just run a 10-15 mm spacer up front, and grab some 225/45 wheels.
