I dont think you would need a spacer for the fronts with the 8.25. THe only reason you would want to run a spacer at that point would be to make the wheels sit flush with the fender instead of being sunk. You would be fine running the 8,25f and 9.75r. I would run a 235/40 in the rear and a 225/45 in the front.

yeah i would want it to look flush with the fender... and if i do that would 10mm spacer work?
*and 9.75 with 5mm spacer correct? Last edited by 240low; 08-28-2012 at 02:22 PM.. Reason: edit. |

If you don't understand the way wheel fitment works, then maybe you shouldn't worry about wheel fitment all together.
There are many aspects that go into making your car's wheel fitment a certain way. You will not achieve a nice flushed look with springs/shocks. You will not achieve proper alignment with stock arms. And you will not achieve certain fitments with stock inner fenders with no tucking of the harness or if you're going to be that guy, getting wheels that won't even fit the front stock tubs, but insists on using those wheels because it's socially cool. The point of this thread is to do research first then ask. Yada yada, we all start somewhere. Why not start where resourceful people start: google. I learned plenty using that and even I had a question in this thread. So do some soul searching, read up, and stop the clutter. |

If you searched, you would have found plenty of threads INCLUDING this one which I've continually have been replying to with useful information. But you didn't do that, you started a thread and got it locked. You must think you're smart for starting a thread, having it closed, and being redirected in a thread where you don't know shit. I'm 100% that this thread would have come up too. And plus with bullshit wheels like yours, you would think a lot of people have redundantly have asked. Well, you bet your ass there are more people like you. That's why I helped you and said: "hey man, do some research, it'll benefit you". And seriously, you're asking what the fuck to do with XXR 8.25 AND 9.75 fitment on your s-chassis? How about sell those, save up, and stick with better wheels. If you don't know shit, why are you going to try to be a smartass? If you knew so much, why'd you start a thread before searching? Why don't you know what the hell spacers do? Why don't you know a good offset for 8.25" & 9.75" widths on a S-Chassis/RWD car? |

So wait, why would you buy wheels then slap spacers on it? Why dont you just buy the right fitting wheels to begin with. Do it right in the beginning and fuck having to worry about spacers.
With that said, difference between the 8.25 +25 and 9.75 +25 is 19mm on both sides. So you'd have 19mm less gap between your suspension and your wheels and at the same time, it'll stick out 19mm closer to your fenders. PS: Dont bother wasting your money on Eibach springs. You slap those springs on your stock shocks, you'll blow your shocks. You'd have to spend $400 for shocks when you could have just saved all that money and went with a coilovers to begin with. And no, it wont lower the car much. You'd still be 4x4'ing it on springs. |

And this is why you won't survive in Zilvia. If MY post made you cry, then you may as well just stop right here.

You were redirected here with your failure of a thread because you are supposed to search before you ask. This thread REQUIRES that you search before you ask. So tell me...am I being a prick? Or are you just too stupid to realize that nobody is going to spoon feed your ass. I don't think you will have to do anything even if you needed small spacers so that the backface/tire won't rub the shock. Google that shit next time. |

This thread is to post your question about wheel fitment and is used to HELP EACH OTHER. This is not to talk shit about someone because they want to ask a question about fitment.
Rules: 1. SEARCH! If all fails come here. We are here to help. 2. No shit talking if your not gonna help someone out DONT POST! 3. Pics are not mandatory but will obviously help. 4. The main reason for this thread is to not clutter up the OG fitment thread and stop all the chit chatter. 5. An answer like yes or no obviously wont help so by posting a response your helping to make the question work. If it is seems like an impossible setup a simple no is ok. Make you response useful. ^^^ u were talkin shit man! lol it evens says under rules not to talk shit! and ok fine my bad ur right i really should have searched.. i didnt know you cant just make a thread about fitment when there are already multiples.. my bad seriously... |

Just bought 9.5 +20 18s all around for my s14. I understand no matter what I will need to roll the front (backs done) and maybe little pull out back. I want to run a square set up and the issue is that 235 40s (easy fit set up) run 10% larger outer diameter than stock while my much preferred 245 35s (unsure of clearance) only run 7%. Does anyone know I can fit the 245 35s and whats needed? Thanks

On my s13 I run 255/35/18 18x10 +20 all factory arms with a small pull, you don't need much at all.

On stock arms, how low are you? If you go low enough where you can tuck some tire, you'd be pushing -5* of camber, maybe even more. Then throw in the fact that you probably have some toe issue since you wont be able to get it anywhere close to 0.
