Yea I was with forest last night at his shop talking wheel sizing. And one of his vskf's are a 10 front negative offset with 30mm front fenders. He also runs a 17 x 10 front in a negative 10 I think.

Looks like I may go with the 18 x 9.5 +7 A Disk (107mm lip) with a 5-10mm slip on. That is still more aggressive than the R Disk of similar offset. Im just really trying to avoid spacers. How different do the faces actually look. A vs R Disk?

I just did my order for my vs-kf

18x10 +0 A-disk on front
18x11 -5 o-disk for rear

they goes on my s14 with stock metal fenders and rolled/pulled with stock camber arms

Here's the current size I'm running on my s14 with stock fenders.

SSR SP1 18x10 +3 BBK face
VS-XX 18x10.5 -7 with 225/40/18 tires
Ray's victrix 18x11 +1 with 5mm spacer, mean 18x11 -4 and 235/40/18

they all fit perfectly and no camber arms needed for massive camber..

With VS-KF A-disk on front, you'll need a 7mm spacer to clear Z32 brakes

R-DISK to O-DISK clearance are 17mm difference

A-DISK to R-DISK clearance are 7-8mm difference

I have S14 JDM front 4 piston caliper and they are smaller than z32 brakes so I'll need a smaller spacer i think

for the rear, 18x11 -5 can fit nicely with a 225 or 235/40/18 tires..

My fenders are only rolled and pulled a bit..ill do much more for better clearance

For the rears I ordered the same exact specs I had previously. I can still change them. Do you guys think I should step it up to the 18 x 11's for my current project?

Here are the 10.5's +1 low disk on my previous S14 pre-pulled

Yup going for flush this time around. 235's or 245's for the rear. I already know I want 225's for the front.

My buddy just lowered his s14, tucking tire on 18s. With stock arms he had 5.2* of camber in the rear, that's pretty massive.

When you align a lowered 240sx, there's usually a decent amount of adjustment, just not nearly enough to bring it back into spec. When I lowered my car, I ended up maxing out the camber positive, and then doing the minimum adjustment to get the toe into spec. Although my car isn't slammed, I was able to get it down to -2.5 degrees, while keeping toe within factory spec.

If I had say, maxed it out negative and then did my toe, I easily could have had -4 degrees +, and my car isn't even tucking tire. I'd say for a slammed 240, you've got a range of anywhere from -3 to -5ish, or more dependind on how low you are, on the stock arms.

I've hit -7 degrees of camber on stock arms.

aftermarket RUCAs and toe links are longer and allow for more POSITIVE camber.

At first glance I thought those Garsons were Rotiforms. Reminded me of that A4 avant on blue wheels....

It's different. Kinda like it.

Here is my girlfriend's setup.

MAE Riverside Dish.

18x9 et17 225/40
18x8 et17 215/40

Rolled fenders, no pull.

Spacers and a tad more camber soon. It's a work in progress lol. Not bad for a girls car.

I guess he's planning on making some adjustments to the front fender wells, since the tire is like 1/2 an inch away from metal on all sides?

Either post wheel fitment pictures, or get out. It's that simple.

Can't wait to get this thing back on the road.

Lame specs: 17x9 +5, 17x10 +19, 215/40 | 235/40. I'll never run Federal tires after this.





Especially with her new shoes on.

17x9 +5, 18x10.5 +14. Going to run Dunlop Star Specs 215/40/17, 225/40/18.
